Abstract
Data are presented on AlGaAs-GaAs-InGaAs native-oxide-defined quantum well heterostructures utilizing a tunnel contact junction including edge-emitting lasers, vertical cavity surface emitting lasers, and resonant cavity light emitting diodes. These devices display improved electrical characteristics and provide a means to create thin highly defined cavities in semiconductor light-emitting structures.
