ABSTRACT:
A double heterostructure light emitting device has a graded index optical waveguide formed integrally therein. The integrally formed waveguide collects light from the heterojunction and directs the light in a distinct light pattern on one surface of the device. The rate of variation of the index gradient within the waveguide region determines the geometry of the light pattern. The light output pattern can be conveniently tailored to match the geometry of a wide variety of optical fiber dimensions.
