Abstract
The object of the invention is to reduce the influence of dislocations on the functioning of structures for optoelectronic component, such as laser, made from semiconductor materials. Accordingly, one of the lasers of such a structure comprises three-dimensional inclusions in a semiconductor material with a thinner forbidden band than the forbidden band of the layer material. The inclusions are e.g. distributed over several planes of the active layer of a laser, and may be in InAs introduced into a layer in GaAs.
