CA 2061349
A surface-normal optoelectronic fusion device is provided which comprises a first semiconductor layer of a first electroconductive type, a second semiconductor layer of a second electroconductive type having a polarity inverse to that of said first electroconductive type, a semiconductor active layer, a third semiconductor layer of the first electroconductive type, and a fourth semiconductor layer of the second electroconductive type, which are formed on a semiconductor sabstrate in this order. Said second and third layers are larger in forbidden band width than said active layer, said second layer is smaller in forbidden band width than the junction part of said first and second layers, and said third layer is smaller in forbidden band width than the junction part of said third and fourth layers. A high resistance range/ranges is/are formed vertically passing through said active layer so as to surround its luminous range and to have resistance higher than that of the luminous range. By providing the high resistance range/ranges as shown above, an ineffective current to be flowed out of the luminous range can be outstandingly reduced, and by setting the forbidden band widths as shown above, carriers and a light can be easily confined thereunto. It is preferable that said first and fourth layers include layers serving to act as a reflecting mirror and said active layer is sandwiched by these layers. Laser emission can be made under the turn-on condition.
