Degradation resistance of semiconductor electroluminescent devices

摘要

The P type conductivity layer or layers of an electroluminescent device includes zinc as the primary conductivity modifier, and germanium as the secondary conductivity modifier. The combination of zinc and germanium provide an electroluminescent device having improved reliability. In the method of fabricating the P type conductivity layer, the zinc and germanium are simultaneously introduced into the layer during deposition of the layer.
