Abstract: A semiconductor device having an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is formed on a semiconductor substrate. A base region and an emitter are formed on a first surface of the substrate while a collector layer is formed on second surface of the substrate. A region having a low breakdown voltage is formed on the first surface around the IGBT, and a carrier collecting region is formed in the vicinity of the region having the low breakdown voltage. The IGBT is prevented from being broken down due to an avalanche phenomenon, because the breakdown occurs in the region having the low breakdown voltage, and carriers of the breakdown current are collected through the carrier collecting region. The breakdown of the IGBT is further effectively prevented by forming a guard ring for suppressing electric field concentration around the region having the low breakdown voltage.
Abstract: The invention provides a side-view LED having an LED window opened to a side to emit light sideward. A pair of lead frames each act as a terminal. An LED chip is attached to a portion of the lead frame and electrically connected thereto. A package body houses the lead frames and has a concave formed around the LED chip. Also, a high reflective metal layer is formed integrally on a wall of the concave. A transparent encapsulant is filled in the concave to encapsulate the LED chip, while forming the LED window. In addition, an insulating layer is formed on a predetermined area of the lead frames so that the lead frames are insulated from the high reflective metal layer. The side-view LED of the invention enhances light efficiency and heat release efficiency with an improved side-wall reflection structure.
Abstract: A nitride-based semiconductor LED comprises an anode; a first p-type clad layer having a second n-type clad layer coming in contact with the anode, the first p-type clad layer being formed under the anode such that a portion of the first p-type clad layer comes in contact with the anode; an active layer formed under the first p-type clad layer; a first n-type clad layer having a second p-type clad layer which does not come in contact with the active layer, the first n-type clad layer being formed on the entire lower surface of the active layer; and a cathode formed under the first n-type clad layer and the second p-type clad layer so as to come in contact with a portion of the first n-type clad layer and the second p-type clad layer.
