Abstract

A high fill factor textured light emitting diode structure comprises: a first textured cladding and contact layer (2) comprising a doped III-V or II-VI group compound semiconductor or alloys of such semiconductors deposited by epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) onto a patterned substrate (1); a textured undoped or doped active layer (3) comprising a III-V or II-VI group semiconductor or alloys of such semiconductors and where radiative recombination of electrons aid holes occurs or intersubband transition occurs; and a second textured cladding and contact layer (4) comprising a doped III-V or II-VI group semiconductor or alloys of such semiconductors.
