We describe the metal-organic chemical vapor deposition of InAsSb/InAsP strained-layer superlattice (SLS) active regions for use in mid-infrared emitters. These SLSs were grown at 500 degrees C, and 200 torr in a horizontal quartz reactor using trimethylindium, triethylantimony, AsH3, and PH3. By changing the layer thickness and composition we have prepared structures with low temperature (less than or equal to 20K) photoluminescence wavelengths ranging from 3.2 to 5.0 mu m. Excellent performance was observed for an SLS light emitting diode (LED) and both optically pumped and electrically injected SLS lasers. An InAsSb/InAsP SLS injection laser emitted at 3.3 mu m at 80 K with peak power of 100 mW.
