Patent Images
1. An asymmetric waveguide nitride laser diode structure comprising:
- an active layer having a first and second surface;
a transition layer less than approximately twenty nanometers thick in contact with said first surface of said active layer;
a p-cladding layer disposed adjacent to said transition layer; and
an n-type layer in contact with said second surface of said active layer.

Abstract
A structure and method for an asymmetric waveguide nitride laser diode without need of a p-type waveguide is disclosed. The need for a high aluminum tunnel barrier layer in the laser is avoided.
