  • Patent number: 10662511
    Abstract: A nitride semiconductor light-emitting device comprises a substrate; a first conductivity type semiconductor layer formed on the substrate; a high-resistance semiconductor layer formed on the first conductivity type semiconductor layer; an active layer formed on the high-resistance semiconductor layer and having multiple quantum wells; and a second conductivity type semiconductor layer formed on the active layer. A first v-pit structure is formed between the high-resistance semiconductor layer and the first conductivity type semiconductor layer, and a second v-pit structure is formed between the active layer and the second conductivity type semiconductor layer. The second v-pit structure is formed such that a lowest part of the second conductivity type semiconductor layer contacts a lowest quantum well of the multiple quantum wells of the active layer through the second v-pit structure.

  • Publication number: 20180069153
    Abstract: A nitride semiconductor light-emitting device and a method for manufacturing same for improving the electrostatic discharge (ESD) characteristics of the nitride semiconductor light-emitting device. The light-emitting device includes an active layer formed flat using a low conductivity material, on a first conductive semiconductor layer having a v-pit structure on the upper surface thereof, and a second conductive semiconductor layer, or has a v-pit structure on a junction surface between a second conductive semiconductor layer and an active layer formed flat using a low conductivity material on a first conductive semiconductor layer having a v-pit structure on the upper surface thereof. Thus, a v-pit area has a thickness equal to or greater than a critical thickness and thus has very low conductivity, thereby preventing the flow of a current.

  • Patent number: 8759815
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a nitride based semiconductor light emitting device with improved luminescence efficiency by increasing a recombination rate of electrons and holes contributing to luminescence, which results from matching the spatial distribution of electron and hole wave functions. The nitride based semiconductor light emitting device according to the present invention includes an n-type nitride layer, an active layer formed on the n-type nitride layer, and a p-type nitride layer formed on the active layer. At this stage, a strain control layer, and the at least one layer has a larger energy bandgap than a quantum well layer in the active layer. The strain control layer is disposed in an area where the quantum well layer of the active layer is formed. Moreover, an energy bandgap of the strain control layer is less than that of quantum barrier of the active layer.
