  • Publication number: 20100123119
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light emitting diode (LED) including an n-type nitride semiconductor layer, a p-type nitride semiconductor layer, and an active region interposed between the n-type nitride semiconductor layer and the p-type nitride semiconductor layer. The active region may include an InGaN quantum well layer. The LED may further include a super lattice layer interposed between the n-type nitride semiconductor layer and the active region. The super lattice layer may be a structure wherein InN layers and InxGa1-xN (0?x<1) layers are alternately stacked. The active layer may be formed on the InGaN/InxGa1-xN super lattice layer, so that strain can be relieved in the active region and so that crystallinity of the quantum well can be improved to increase an electron-hole recombination rate.
