Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A heterojunction semiconductor device, capable of operating as an electroluminescent diode, comprising: a substrate made of indium phosphide; a first layer deposited on said substrate, said layer having a composition responding to the formula: Ga.sub.x3 In.sub.1-x3 As.sub.y3 P.sub.1-y3 a second layer deposited on said first layer, said second layer having a composition responding to the formula: Ga.sub.x4 In.sub.1-x4 As.sub.y4 P.sub.1-y4 and a third layer deposited on said second layer and of the same composition as said first layer wherein the width of the second layer is less than the width of the first or third layer and x 3 =0.1; y 3 =0.22; x 4 =0.27 and y 4 =0.59.
