Abstract
Semiconductor lasers and LEDs are described in which the pumping current is constrained to flow from a relatively narrow upper channel formed by a V-groove, which extends to a depth short of the active region, through a relatively wider lower channel bounded by high resistivity regions, which extend from at least that depth into or through the active region. Also described are devices in which the V-groove is refilled with semiconductor material.
