Abstract
An InAsP active region for a long wavelength light emitting device and a method for growing the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises placing a substrate in an organometallic vapor phase epitaxy (OMVPE) reactor, the substrate for supporting growth of an indium arsenide phosphide (InAsP) film, forming a quantum well layer of InAsP, and forming a barrier layer adjacent the quantum well layer, where the quantum well layer and the barrier layer are formed at a temperature of less than 520 degrees C. Forming the quantum well layer and the barrier layer at a temperature of less than 520 degrees C. results in fewer dislocations by suppressing relaxation of the layers. A long wavelength active region including InAsP quantum well layers and InGaP barrier layers is also disclosed.
