LIGHT EMITTING CIRCUIT WITH LIGHT EMITTING TRANSISTOR

摘要

A light-emitting circuit includes a light-emitting transistor and a voltage supply in communication with the light-emitting transistor to bias the light-emitting transistor in a reasonably bright state. A reasonably bright state is a state in which light emission approaches the greatest for a given drain-source current in the light-emitting transistor. In one aspect, the light-emitting circuit is in communication with a device under test and configured so that the light-emitting transistor emits photons in a manner indicative of an operation of the device under test. The light-emitting circuit may be disposed in a first semiconductor layer, and the device under test may be disposed in a second semiconductor layer. Further, the first semiconductor layer may be included in a first die, and the second semiconductor layer may be included in a second die.
