The use of a nitrogen radio frequency plasma source together with an a
ppropriate quantum well configuration have recently resulted in the su
ccessful realization of p-type ZnSe by molecular beam epitaxy. This ha
s enabled a variety of pn heterojunction based devices to be built inc
luding the first semiconductor injection lasers operating in the blue/
green portion of the spectrum first reported by 3M and the Brown/Purdu
e group. In this paper, we discuss two lattice matched multiple quantu
m well structures that produce laser emission in the blue and blue/gre
en portion of the spectrum.
