Use of electrochemistry in mini-/micro-LEDs and VCSELs

<p>As optoelectronic semiconductor research reaches a level of saturation, incorporation of unconventional processes and techniques often add to new phenomena and opportunities. In this manuscript, we share our perspective regarding the application of electrochemistry to GaN and related compound semiconductors. Two specific examples of using nanoporous structures, created by electrochemistry, for mini-/micro- LEDs and for vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) are discussed. &copy; COPYRIGHT SPIE.
