Abstract
A TJS light emitting diode (laser or LED) comprises an isotype double heterostructure (DH) and a V-groove which penetrates the intermediate layer of the DH. The groove is filled with a region of semiconductor material which enables carrier injection to occur from the region into the intermediate layer, or conversely, depending on the relative bandgaps of the layer and region. Real-refractive index guiding by the groove is described.
