Description

A hetero p/n junction diode was fabricated by laminating an amorphous n-type InGaZn5O8 layer to a p-type LaCuOSe film epitaxially grown on a MgO (001) substrate. It exhibited a relatively sharp blue electroluminescence (EL) that peaked at ~430 nm at room temperature when a forward bias voltage above 8 V was applied. The wavelength and bandwidth of the EL band agreed well with those of the excitonic photoluminescence band in LaCuOSe, which indicates that the EL band originates from the exciton in LaCuOSe. This experiment strongly suggests that layered compounds, LnCuOCh (Ln=lanthanide, Ch=chalcogen), are promising as the light-emitting layer in optoelectronic devices that operate in the blue–ultraviolet region.
