Several methods for producing an active region for a long wavelength light emitting device are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises placing a substrate in an organometallic vapor phase epitaxy (OMVPE) reactor, the substrate for supporting growth of an indium gallium arsenide nitride (InGaAsN) film, supplying to the reactor a group-III-V precursor mixture comprising arsine, dimethylhydrazine, alkyl-gallium, alkyl-indium and a carrier gas, where the arsine and the dimethylhydrazine are the group-V precursor materials and where the percentage of dimethylhydrazine substantially exceeds the percentage of arsine, and pressurizing the reactor to a pressure at which a concentration of nitrogen commensurate with light emission at a wavelength longer than 1.2 um is extracted from the dimethylhydrazine and deposited on the substrate.
