ABSTRACT:
A III-nitride electronic device structure including doped material, an active region and a barrier material arranged to suppress transport of dopant from the doped material into the active region, wherein the barrier material comprises high-Al content AlxGayN, wherein x+y=1, and x≧0.50. In a specific aspect, AIN is used as a migration/diffusion barrier layer at a thickness of from about 5 to about 200 Angstroms, to suppress flux of magnesium and/or silicon dopant material into the active region of the III-nitride electronic device, e.g., a UV LED optoelectronic device.
