First Claim
1. A method for growing a light emitting device comprising a n-type region, a light emitting region and a p-type region, the method comprising:
- growing a light emitting device structure on a growth substrate using a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD); and
growing at least a portion of a hydrogen-free layer of a tunnel junction on the light emitting device by using at least one of remote plasma chemical vapor deposition (RP-CVD) and sputtering deposition.

Abstract
Described herein are methods for using remote plasma chemical vapor deposition (RP-CVD) and sputtering deposition to grow layers for light emitting devices. A method includes growing a light emitting device structure on a growth substrate, and growing a tunnel junction on the light emitting device structure using at least one of RP-CVD and sputtering deposition. The tunnel junction includes a p++ layer in direct contact with a p-type region, where the p++ layer is grown by using at least one of RP-CVD and sputtering deposition. Another method for growing a device includes growing a p-type region over a growth substrate using at least one of RP-CVD and sputtering deposition, and growing further layers over the p-type region. Another method for growing a device includes growing a light emitting region and an n-type region using at least one of RP-CVD and sputtering deposition over a p-type region.
