`
`(57)Abstract:

`semiconductor laser by reducing the state density of a
`valence band and increasing the transition probability of
`the band.
`
`SOLUTION: A quantum well active layer 4 having a
`biaxial tensile strain is grown on a substrate crystal 1
`having plane orientation of (1-100)-plane, (11-20)-
`plane, or an equivalent plane, and a resonator is
`constituted in the direction perpendicular to the
`(0001)-direction. Therefore, the state density of the
`upper part of a valence band can be reduced and, at
`the same time, the transition probability of the band can I
`be increased. In addition, a gallium nitride-based
`compound semiconductor laser can be obtained,
`because the threshold current density can be reduced.

`[Detailed Description of the Invention]
`[0001]
`[Field of the Invention]This invention relates to the light emitting device which used the gallium
`nitride system compound semiconductor.
`[0002]
`[Description of the Prior Art]Ga||ium nitride system compound semiconductors, such as GaN,
`GaA|N, InGaN, and InGaA|N, are wide gap semiconductors which have a transited [ directly ]
`type, and are actively studied as a material which constitutes the light emitting device to an
`ultraviolet area from blue. The present, As a light emitting device using this material. The high-
`intensity blue LED of the double hetero structure which makes a luminous layer Zn dope InGaN
`layer constituted on silicon on sapphire is known (S. Nakamura et al., Appl. Phys. Lett., 64 (1994)
`1687). The gallium nitride system light emitting device which constituted on the ZnO board and
`decreased the defect by a lattice strain is indicated by the JP,5-206513,A gazette. However,
`gallium nitride system compound semiconductor laser by current injection was not realized until
`now.
`
`[0003]
`[Problem to be solved by the invention]That the laser oscillation by current injection is difficult
`in a gallium nitride system compound semiconductor originates in the density of states of the
`valence band of this material system being large, and threshold carrier density being high. The
`band structure of the valence-band upper part near gamma point in case [ of wurtzite type
`GaN / distorted ] there is nothing is shown in drawing 5.
`[0004]Incidentally, gamma point is a point that wave number vector k (equivalent to the wave
`number of the horizontal axis of drawing 5) of the electron inside a crystal is set to "0." Now, in
`a wurtzite type semiconductor, the split of the energy of gamma point is carried out to three by
`the crystal field and a spin orbit interaction. In the state of the wave function of gamma point,
`these three bands are made for convenience to be referred to as hh(heavy ho|e)1, hh2, and lh
`(light hole), respectively. The threshold carrier density which the density of states of the
`valence-band upper part of GaN gives laser oscillation since it is large as compared with
`common III-V fellows semiconductors, such as GaAs, increased, and the laser oscillation by
`current injection was difficult. In a wurtzite type semiconductor, since the character of the wave
`function of hhi and hh2 is the same, even if it adds distortion, the energy split of hh1 and hh2
`hardly changes. For this reason, with a wurtzite type semiconductor, reduction of the density of
`states by a compressive strain was not able to be expected, either.
`[0005]According to the reduction of the density of states of the valence-band upper part and
`the increase of optical transition probability by the hauling distortion of a gallium nitride system
`compound semiconductor, this invention reduces threshold carrier density required for laser
`oscillation, and an object of this invention is to realize the gallium nitride semiconductor laser by
`current injection.
`[0006]
`[Means for solving prob|em]The gallium nitride system semiconductor light emitting device of this
`invention grows the quantum well active layer which has an optically biaxial hauling distortion on

`
`the field (1-100) of the first crystal with wurtzite structure, and produces a waveguide in a
`direction vertical to the [0001] axes of the 1st crystal, i.e., the [11-20] direction. The same
`effect can be acquired also by growing up the active layer which has an optically biaxial hauling
`distortion on the field (11-20) of the first crystal, and producing a waveguide in a direction
`vertical to [0001] axes, i.e., the [1-100] direction. The same effect can be acquired also when
`the plane direction of the first above-mentioned crystal is a field which has a gap of (1-100) or
`(11-20) to 10 degrees. If it puts in another way, to the surface of a substrate in which an
`element is formed, the semiconductor light emitting element by this invention has the almost
`parallel c axis of the crystal which constitutes (1) active layer, and it pulls it to the well layer of
`(2) active layers, and it has the structural feature that distortion is added.
`[0007]For example, the band structure of the valence-band upper part near gamma point at the
`time of adding 2% of optically biaxial hauling distortion to wurtzite type GaN becomes like drawing
`§. By impressing hauling distortion as compared with drawing 5 shows that lh band which
`consists of a z orbit shifts to the upper part, and the density of states of the valence-band
`upper part of a direction parallel to c axis, i.e., [0001] axes, decreases substantially. That is,
`change of the energy (vertical axis) over the wave number (horizontal axis) of a direction parallel
`to c axis becomes sudden, and density of states is decreasing. Therefore, the density of states
`of a valence band can be reduced by constituting a quantum well active layer on a direction
`vertical to [0001] axes, i.e. (1-100), a field, a field, or a field equivalent to this, and considering it
`as the structure which impressed hauling distortion.
`[0008]When a quantum well is formed on a field (1-100) or (11-20) a field, optical transition
`probability has a polarization direction dependency with quantum well side Uchi’s anisotropy. For
`example, the polarization dependency of the transition-matrix element in gamma point of a
`quantum well that a plane direction is (1-100) becomes as it is shown in Table 1 as compared
`with the case of the distortionless quantum well constituted in the field (0001). Table 1 shows
`the calculation result of the optical matrix element in the band end in a GaN quantum well.

`[0010]Tab|e 1 shows that transition probability can be enlarged about 2 times in the hauling
`distortion quantum well on a field (1-100), if a waveguide is formed in a direction vertical to
`[0001], i.e., the [11-20] direction, (the energy value in front shows the ease of producing of
`optical transition, and transition probability is so high that it is large). By this, a gain increases,
`threshold carrier density required for an oscillation is reduced, and a gallium nitride
`semiconductor laser can be realized.

`each layers grow epitaxially with a gas source molecular beam grown method. The thickness of
`the buffer layer 2, n-InGaA|N layer 3, and p-InGaA|N layer 5 is 2 micrometers, 0.15 micrometer,
`and 0.15 micrometer, respectively. The undoping multiplex quantum well active layer 4 has the
`double quantum well structure where the Ino_2Gao_6aluminum0_2N barrier layer (8 nm of thickness)
`6 and the Ino_1Gao_9N well layer (4 nm of thickness) 7 were laminated by turns, as expanded and

`grating constant may be -1.8%, when the grating constant of ZnO is set to a, and an optically
`biaxial hauling distortion is impressed. After vapor-depositing the n side In electrode 8 at the
`rear face of the substrate 1 of the wafer produced by making it above and vapor-depositing Al
`electrode 9 to the p type InGaA|N layer 5, a cleavage is carried out a field (11-20), a resonator
`about 800 micrometers in length is formed in the [11-20] direction (side side of the active layer
`4 of drawing 1), and a semiconductor laser is produced. In the room temperature, continuous
`oscillation of this semiconductor laser was carried out with about 50 mA of threshold current.

`layer 15 is 2 micrometers, 0.15 micrometer, and 0.15 micrometer, respectively. The undoping
`multiplex quantum well active layer 14 has the double quantum well structure where the
`In0_35Gao_5aluminumo_15N barrier layer (5 nm of thickness) 16 and the Ino_2Gao_8N well layer (3 nm
`of thickness) 17 were laminated by turns, as expanded and shown. The composition ratio of the
`well layer 17 is set up here so that gap deltaa/a of a future grating constant may be -2.0%, when
`the grating constant of an In0_5Gao_5N buffer layer is set to a, and an optically biaxial hauling
`distortion is impressed. After vapor-depositing the n side In electrode 8 at the rear face of the

`p type InGaA|N layer 5, a cleavage is carried out a field (11-20), a resonator about 800
`micrometers in length is formed in the [11-20] direction, and a semiconductor laser is produced.
`In the room temperature, continuous oscillation of this semiconductor laser was carried out with
`about 60 mA of threshold current. The oscillation wavelength was about 450 nm.
`[0016]Although InGaN was used as a quantum well layer and ZnO was used as a substrate in the

`thickness) 22 was inserted into the Ino_2Gao_6a|uminumo_2N barrier layer (10 nm of thickness) 23,
`as expanded and shown. The composition ratio of the well layer 22 is set up here so that gap
`deltaa/a of a future grating constant may be -1.8%, when the grating constant of ZnO is set to a,
`and an optically biaxial hauling distortion is impressed. After vapor-depositing the n side In
`electrode 8 at the rear face of the substrate 1 of the wafer produced by making it above and
`vapor-depositing Al electrode 9 to the p type InGaAlN layer 5, a cleavage is carried out a field
`(11-20), a resonator about 800 micrometers in length is formed in the [11-20] direction, and a
`semiconductor laser is produced. In the room temperature, continuous oscillation of this
`semiconductor laser was carried out with about 50 mA of threshold current. The oscillation
`
`wavelength was about 450 nm.
`[0018]On the field (1-100) of the silicon on sapphire 31, InGaN buffer layer 2 grows, n-InGaA|N
`layer 3, the undoping multiplex quantum well active layer 4, and the p-InGaA|N cladding layer 5
`
`are laminated successively, and the semiconductor laser shown in drawing 4 is constituted at
`this buffer layer 2 top. These each layers grow epitaxially by metal-organic chemical vapor
`deposition. The quantum well active layer 4 has here the multiple quantum well structure by
`which the In0_2Ga0_6a|uminumo_2N barrier layer (8 nm of thickness) 6 and two cycles of
`Ino1Ga0 9N well layers (4 nm of thickness) 7 were laminated by turns, as expanded and shown.
`The composition ratio of the well layer 7 is set up here so that gap deltaa/a of a future grating
`constant may be -1.8%, when the grating constant of an InGaN buffer layer is set to a, and an
`optically biaxial hauling distortion is impressed. A part of p-InGaA|N cladding layer 5 of a wafer
`and quantum well active layer 4 produced by making it above are removed by etching, After
`exposing the n-InGaAlN cladding layer 3 and vapor-depositing Al electrode 9 to p-cladding layer
`and n-cladding layer, a cleavage is carried out a field (11-20), a resonator about 800
`micrometers in length is formed in the [11-20] direction, and a semiconductor laser is produced.
`In the room temperature, continuous oscillation of this semiconductor laser was carried out with
`about 70 mA of threshold current. The oscillation wavelength was about 420 nm.
`[0019]This invention is applicable not only to the laser structure shown in the working example
`but various semiconductor lasers, for example, a distributed feedback laser, a distributed Bragg
`reflector laser, tunable laser, and laser with an external resonator.
`
`[0020]
`[Effect of the Invention]As mentioned above, the gallium nitride system compound
`semiconductor light emitting device of this invention, Since a plane direction grows the quantum
`well active layer which has an optically biaxial hauling distortion on the base substance crystal
`which is a field (1-100) or (11-20) a field and is producing the waveguide in the direction vertical
`to the [0001] directions, transition probability can be small increased in the density of states of
`the valence-band upper part. Since a gain increases and threshold current density can be
`reduced by this, gallium nitride system compound semiconductor laser is realizable.
