    Abstract: There are provided an ohmic electrode capable of operating elements stably for a long period by making contact specific resistance smaller and also increasing thermal stability thereof and a method of forming the same. An electrode layer is formed on a p-type compound semiconductor layer composed of p-type GaN and so on through a contact layer composed of p-type GaN and so on. The contact layer is formed by an MBE method, and the hole density is set higher than that of the p-type compound semiconductor layer. The electrode layer is formed by laminating a transition metal layer composed of a transition metal other than gold or platinum, a platinum layer and a gold layer one after another and annealing the laminated layers thereafter. With this, the platinum layer is made to adhere closely to the p- type compound semiconductor layer by the transition metal layer while preventing gold from diffusing toward the p- type compound semiconductor layer with the platinum layer.

    Abstract: A plurality of first layers made of AlGaN mixed crystal each having a thickness of the order of 1 to 100 nm and a plurality of second layers of p-type GaN with Mg each having a thickness of the order of 1 to 100 nm are alternately stacked. Since each of the first and second layers is thin, the stacked layers as a whole have properties of p-type AlGaN mixed crystal although the first layers do not include Mg and the second layers do not include Al. An Al source and a Mg source are temporally separated to be introduced in a stacking process. A reaction between the Al source and Mg source which may interfere desirable crystal growth is thereby prevented. Crystals of good quality are thus grown and electrical conductivity is thereby improved.

    Abstract: A semiconductor laser capable of emitting blue or green light is disclosed. The semiconductor laser comprises an n-type ZnMgSSe cladding layer (2), an active layer (3), a p-type ZnMgSSe cladding layer (4), a p-type ZnSe contact layer (5) and a p-type ZnTe contact layer (6) which are stacked in this sequence on an n-type GaAs substrate (1). A p-side electrode (7) is provided on the p-type ZnTe contact layer (6). An n-side electrode (8) is provided on the back surface of the n-type GaAs substrate (1). A maltiquantum well layer (9) comprising quantum wells made of p-type ZnTe and barriers made of p-type ZnSe is provided in the depletion layer produced in the p-type ZnSe contact layer (5) along the junction interface between the p-type ZnSe contact layer (5) and the p-type ZnTe contact layer (6). Holes injected from the p-side electrode (7) pass through the junction by the resonant tunneling effect through quantum levels formed in the quantum wells of the multiquantum well layer (9).
