Abstract: An LED comprises a semiconductor region including an active layer for generating light. An anode is arranged centrally on one of the opposite major surfaces of the semiconductor region from which is emitted the light. A reflective metal layer is bonded to the other major surface of the light-generating semiconductor region via an ohmic contact layer. Sufficiently thin to permit the passage of light therethrough, the ohmic contact layer is formed in an open-worked pattern to leave exposed part of the second major surface of the semiconductor region. A transparent, open-worked anti-alloying layer is interposed between the light-generating semiconductor region and the reflective metal layer, covering that part of the second major surface of the light-generating semiconductor region which is left exposed by the ohmic contact layer. The anti-alloying layer prevents the light-generating semiconductor region and reflective metal layer from alloying during heat treatments conducted in the curse of LED manufacture.
