Infrared light-emitting diode - localization of p-n junction

AFM (top) and KPM (bottom) images of n-InAs/p-InAsSbP based infrared LED cross-section. Scanning Kelvin Probe Microscopy permits to locate the p-n junction, though the potential difference here is only about 20 mV. Such localization is difficult to perform with any other technique.
