  • Platforms enabled by buried tunnel junction for integrated photonic and electronic systems
    Patent number: 11476383
    Abstract: A device that includes a metal(III)-polar III-nitride substrate having a first surface opposite a second surface, a tunnel junction formed on one of the first surface or a buffer layer disposed on the first surface, a p-type III-nitride layer formed directly on the tunnel junction, and a number of material layers; a first material layer formed on the p-type III-nitride layer, each subsequent layer disposed on a preceding layer, where one layer from the number of material layers is patterned into a structure, that one layer being a III-nitride layer. Methods for forming the device are also disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 18, 2022
    Assignee: Cornell University
    Inventors: Henryk Turski, Debdeep Jena, Huili Grace Xing, Shyam Bharadwaj, Alexander Austin Chaney, Kazuki Nomoto
