A lateral p-Si0.05Ge0.95/i-Ge/n-Si0.05Ge0.95 heterojunction light emitting diode on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate was proposed, which is profitable to achieve higher luminous extraction compared to vertical junctions. Due to the high carrier injection ratio of heterostructures and optical reflection at the SiO2/Si interface of the SOI, strong room temperature electroluminescence (EL) at around 1600nm from the direct bandgap of i-Ge with 0.30% tensile strain was observed. The EL peak intensity of the lateral heterojunction is enhanced by similar to 4 folds with a larger peak energy than that of the vertical Ge p-i-n homojunction, suggesting that the light emitting efficiency of the lateral heterojunction is effectively improved. The EL peak intensity of the lateral heterojunction, which increases quadratically with injection current density, becomes stronger for diodes with a wider i-Ge region. The CMOS compatible fabrication process of the lateral heterojunctions paves the way for the integration of the light source with the Ge metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistor.
