  • Patent number: 6608328
    Abstract: A light emitting diode is made by a compound semiconductor in which light is emitted from an active region with a multiple quantum well structure. The active region is sandwiched by InGaAlP-based lower and upper cladding layers. Emission efficiency of the active region is improved by adding light and electron reflectors in the light emitting diode. These InGaAlP-based layers are grown epitaxially by Organometallic Vapor-Phase Epitaxy (OMVPE) on a GaAs substrate with a misorientation angle toward <111>A to improve the quality and surface morphology of the epilayer and performance in light emitting. The lower cladding layer of first conductivity type forms on a misoriented substrate with the same type of conductivity. Light transparent and current diffusion layers with a second conductivity is formed on top of the upper cladding layer for the spreading of current and expansion of the emission light.
