Abstract: A stack of semiconductor layers (310) forms a re-emitting semiconductor construction (RSC). The stack (310) includes an active region (316) that converts light at a first wavelength to light at a second wavelength, the active region (316) including at least one potential well. The stack (310) also includes an inactive region (318) extending from an outer surface of the stack to the active region. Depressions (326) are formed in the stack (310) that extend from the outer surface into the inactive region (318). An average depression depth is at least 50% of a thickness of the inactive region. Alternatively, the average depression depth is at least 50% of a nearest potential well distance. Still other alternative characterizations of the depressions (326) are also disclosed. The depressions (326) may have at least a 40% packing density in plan view. The depressions (326) may also have a substantial portion of their projected surface area associated with obliquely inclined surfaces.

Abstract: Light emitting devices and methods of fabricating the same are disclosed. The light emitting device includes a light emitting diode (LED) that emits blue or UV light and is attached to a semiconductor construction. The semiconductor construction includes a re-emitting semiconductor construction that includes at least one layer of a II-VI compound and converts at least a portion of the emitted blue or UV light to longer wavelength light. The semiconductor construction further includes an etch-stop construction that includes an AlInAs or a GaInAs compound.

Abstract: Logic circuitry is powered by a partially rectified alternating current (ac) waveform. The waveform is partially rectified in the sense that it does not provide a clean, primarily dc power signal. Instead, it is possible to power logic circuitry with a waveform that includes a substantial ac component. The partially rectified ac waveform may be applied to logic circuitry incorporating thin film transistors based on amorphous or polycrystalline organic semiconductors, inorganic semiconductors or combinations of both.

Abstract: An optical communication subassembly includes one or more optoelectronic devices, one or more optical elements, and a transceiver light coupling unit. Each optical element is configured to change a divergence of the outgoing light relative to a divergence of the incoming light and is spaced apart from and optically aligned with a corresponding optoelectronic device. The transceiver light coupling unit has a mating surface configured for mating with a connector light coupling unit attached to an optical waveguide. A mating direction of the optical light coupling unit forms an angle with the mating surface of the transceiver light coupling unit such that when the connector light coupling unit mates with the transceiver light coupling unit, the angle between the mating direction of the connector light coupling unit and the mating surface of the transceiver light coupling unit causes the optical waveguide to bend.

Abstract: We describe stacked photovoltaic modules, and components thereof, in which at least one booster cell is combined with at least one primary cell in a stacked configuration. The booster cell may be in the form of a polycrystalline film disposed on a transparent substrate, such as a glass substrate, and the film may be patterned to form multiple booster cells. The booster cell includes an n-type layer and a p-type layer; the n-type layer may include polycrystalline zinc sulfide (ZnS), and the p-type layer may include polycrystalline zinc telluride (ZnTe). The n-type layer may have a band gap energy of at least 3.5 eV, and the p-type layer may have a band gap energy of at least 2 or at least 2.2 eV, or in a range from 2.2 to 2.3 eV. An intrinsic layer, also comprising polycrystalline ZnTe, may reside between the n-type and p-type layers.

Abstract: Solid state lighting devices include a first luminescent element (612) emitting light having a first spectrum, and a second luminescent element (614) emitting light having a second spectrum. The first luminescent element includes a first electroluminescent element (612a) that emits a first pump light, and a first light converting element (612b) that converts at least some of the first pump light to a first re-emitted light component. The second luminescent element includes a second electroluminescent element (614a) that emits a second pump light, and a second light converting element (614b) that converts at least some second pump light to a second re-emitted light component. The first and/or second light converting element includes a potential well. Light emitted by the first and second luminescent elements combine to provide a device output, which can approximate a Planckian locus over a range of color temperatures and exhibit a color rendering index of at least 60, 70, or 80.
