摘要
Aging studies of II-VI lasers and light emitting diodes show that these devices degrade not catastrophically, but gradually by recombination-enhanced defect reactions at preexisting defects. The activation energy and current dependence of the degradation process in devices were examined. ZnMgSSe-based materials are stable under current injection of at least up to 2 kA/cm(2), about 4 times larger than the current density needed for laser operation. Ways to improve device reliability are also discussed.
