Epitaxial Growth of ZnMgSSe on GaAs Substrate by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

We propose a new material, ZnMgSSe, as the cladding layer of a blue-light laser diode. Band-gap energy can be varied from 2.8 to near 4 eV, maintaining lattice-matching to a (100)GaAs substrate. The band-gap energies of MgS and MgSe (zincblende structure) are estimated to be about 4.5 eV and 3.6 eV,... View More
