Abstract

A red light-emitting gallium phosphide device of high electroluminescent efficiency which comprises an n-type gallium phosphide substrate containing a donor at concentrations ranging from 1.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3 to 3.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3, an n-type gallium phosphide layer formed on said substrate with a donor concentration in the neighborhood of a p-n junction set at a level ranging from 2.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3 to 5.5.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3 and a p-type gallium phosphide layer grown on said n-type gallium phosphide layer with a net acceptor concentration and an oxygen donor concentration in the neighborhood of the p-n junction chosen to range from 1.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3 to 3.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3 and 0.1.times.10.sup.16 cm.sup.-3 to 8.times.10.sup.16 cm.sup.-3, respectively.
