  • Publication number: 20230361152
    Abstract: An optoelectronic device including first, second, and third three-dimensional light-emitting diodes having an axial configuration. Each light-emitting diode includes a semiconductor element and an active region resting on the semiconductor element. Each semiconductor element corresponds to a microwire, a nanowire, a nanometer- or micrometer-range conical or frustoconical element. The first, second, and third light-emitting diodes are configured to respectively emit first, second, and third radiations at first, second, and third wavelengths. The semiconductor elements of the first, second, and third light-emitting diodes respectively have first, second, and third diameters. The first diameter is smaller than the second diameter and the second diameter is smaller than the third diameter, the first wavelength being greater than the third wavelength and the second wavelength being greater than the first wavelength.

  • Publication number: 20220376131
    Abstract: A light-emitting diode manufacturing method including the forming of three-dimensional semiconductor elements, extending along parallel axes, made of a III-V compound, each having a lower portion and a flared upper portion inscribed within a frustum of half apical angle ?. The method further comprises, for each semiconductor element, the forming of an active area covering the top of the upper portion and the forming of at least one semiconductor layer of the III-V compound covering the active area by vapor deposition at a pressure lower than 10 mPa, by using a flux of the group-III element along a direction inclined by an angle ?III and a flux of the group-V element along a direction inclined by an angle ?V with respect to the vertical axis, angles ?III and ?V being smaller than angle ?.

  • Publication number: 20220278081
    Abstract: An optoelectronic device includes pixels that each have at least one primary sub-pixel having a primary light-emitting diode formed on a support face a substrate provided with a first primary semiconductive portion that has an overall elongated wire-like shape having a top end, a primary lattice parameter accommodation layer arranged on the top end of the first primary semiconductive portion, a second primary active semiconductive portion arranged at least on the primary lattice parameter accommodation layer, and a third primary semiconductive portion arranged on the second primary active semiconductive portion. The primary lattice parameter accommodation layer has, with the second primary active semiconductive portion, a first difference in primary lattice parameters between 2.12% and 0.93% relative to the second primary active semiconductive portion.
