We report on a powerful 4.6 µm light emitting diode (LED), operating at room temperature, suitable for carbon monoxide gas detection. The source is based on a InAs0.55Sb0.15P0.30 /InAs0.89Sb0.11/InAs0.55Sb0.15P0.30 symmetrical double heterostructure with large band offsets. To improve performance, the InAs0.89Sb0.11 ternary material in the active region was purified by using rare-earth ion gettering during liquid phase epitaxial growth. A pulsed optical output power in excess of 1 mW at room temperature has been measured, making these emitters suitable for use in cost-effective instruments for the environmental monitoring of carbon monoxide.
