Abstract

A device includes a P-N junction comprising a monolithic N-type semiconductor layer coupled to a monolithic P-type semiconductor layer. The monolithic N-type semiconductor layer includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a first surface and the second portion has a second surface facing away from the first surface. The monolithic P-type semiconductor layer includes a third portion and a fourth portion. The third portion has a third surface and the fourth portion has a fourth surface facing away from the third surface.
