摘要

A carbon doped short period superlattice is provided. A heterostructure includes a short period superlattice comprising a plurality of quantum wells alternating with a plurality of barriers. One or more of the quantum wells and/or the barriers includes a carbon doped layer (e.g., a non-percolated or percolated carbon atomic plane).
