WIDE BANDGAP LEDS

The 225-page volume Wide Bandgap Light Emitting Materials and Devices addresses research on the materials and concepts for the devices. Sections cover III-nitride LEDs on Si, SiC, sapphire and other substrates, providing information on heteroepitaxy, light extraction and optical characteristics. Chapters on III-nitride microcavity light emitters discuss microstructure fabrication, nitride microdisplays, submicron waveguides and optically pumped vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser structures.
