Abstract
The resistivity of a p-doped III-V or a p-doped II-VI semiconductor material is reduced. The reduction of resistivity of the p-type III-V or a II-VI semiconductor material is achieved by applying an electric field to the semiconductor material. III-V nitride-based light emitting diodes are prepared.
