LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICES EXCITED BY IMPACT IONIZATION
Light-emitting devices and methods for making light-emitting devices. A light-emitting device includes a high-field electrode, a collector electrode, and a light generating region. The collector electrode is operatively coupled to one side of the light generating region, and the high-field electrode is operatively coupled to another side of the light generating region opposite the collector electrode. The high-field electrode includes protruding electrode elements that extend into the light generating region and toward the collector electrode. The protruding electrode elements accelerate carriers in the light generating region in response to a voltage being applied between the high-field electrode and the collector electrode. The carriers have sufficient kinetic energy to create electron-hole pairs in the light generating region through impact ionization. When these electron-hole pairs recombine, at least a portion of the recombination events emit a photon with an energy corresponding to the bandgap of the light generating region.
