An AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor With a Built-In Light Emitter Using Radiative Recombination of Two-Dimensional Electron Gas and Holes

This paper reports a novel HEMT structure that includes a built-in light emitter through band-to-band radiative recombination that is provided via holes from the p-GaN layer and electrons from the 2DEG. The electrical switching and illumination functions are able to be combined into a single device....
