Abstract

We present experimental results on using tunnel injection of electrons in Germanium diodes on Silicon substrates for light emission, the Germanium Zener-Emitter. Through tunneling and applying a controlled bias, electrons can be injected into the direct conduction band valley. We discuss the usage for optoelectronic devices.
