Abstract
A vertical geometry light emitting diode with a strain relieved superlattice layer on a substrate comprising doped AlInGaN. A first doped layer is on the strain relieved superlattice layer AlInGaN and the first doped layer has a first conductivity. A multilayer quantum well is on the first doped layer comprising alternating layers quantum wells and barrier layers. The multilayer quantum well terminates with a barrier layer on each side thereof. A second doped layer is on the quantum well wherein the second doped layer comprises AlInGaN and said second doped layer has a different conductivity than said first doped layer. A contact layer is on the third doped layer and the contact layer has a different conductivity than the third doped layer. A metallic contact is in a vertical geometry orientation.
