Claims Summary
1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a series of epitaxial layers grown on a substrate, said epitaxial layers including an N+ doped layer, a first plurality of layers forming a p-type modulation doped quantum well spaced from said N+ doped layer by at least a first epitaxial layer, a second plurality of layers forming an n-type modulation doped quantum well, said first plurality of layers being separated from said second plurality of layers by at least a second epitaxial layer, and a P+ doped layer spaced from said second plurality of layers by at least a third epitaxial layer.
