Abstract

An optoelectronic device has a substrate and a first window layer on the substrate with a first sheet resistance, a first thickness, and a first impurity concentration. A second window layer has a second sheet resistance, a second thickness, and a second impurity concentration. A semiconductor system is between the first window layer and the second window layer. The second window layer has a semiconductor material different from the semiconductor system, and the second sheet resistance is greater than the first sheet resistance. A method for manufacturing is provided, having the steps of providing a substrate, forming a semiconductor system on the substrate, and forming a window layer on the semiconductor system. The window layer has a semiconductor material different from the semiconductor system. Selectively removing the window layer forms a width difference greater than 1 micron between the window layer and semiconductor system.
