  • Patent number: 8847267
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light emitting diode with metal piles and one or more passivation layers and a method for making the diode including a first steps of performing mesa etching respectively on a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer belonging to stacked layers formed on a substrate in sequence! a second step of forming a reflector layer on the mesa-etched upper and side face! a third step of contacting one or more first electrodes with the first semiconductor layer and one or more second electrodes through the reflector layer with the second semiconductor layer; a fourth step of forming a first passivation layer on the reflector layer and the contacted electrodes; and a fifth step of connecting the first electrodes to a first bonding pad through one or more first electrode lines, bring one ends of vertical extensions having the shape of a metal pile into contact with one or more second electrodes, and connecting the other ends of the vertical extensions to a second bonding

  • Patent number: 8294167
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light emitting diode with high electrostatic discharge and a fabrication method thereof, and more specifically to a light emitting diode comprising a first electrode layer provided over a upper surface of a first semiconductor layer and a upper surface of a second semiconductor layer; a transparent electrode layer formed on the upper surface of the second semiconductor layer, spaced from the first electrode layer; and a second electrode layer provided on a upper surface of the transparent electrode layer. With the present invention, there is provided a light emitting diode element with resistance against electrostatic discharge and with high reliability being strong against electrical impact, by selecting a structure arranging a form of an electrode differently from a conventional electrode.

  • Patent number: 5032768
    Abstract: A gas discharge device having the characteristic of low discharge voltage, the construction being such that the cathode is surrounding the discharge space of the anode. A barrier and the cathode are each alternately formed with different height portions; also, said cathode forms a half-circle groove surrounding the discharge space of said anode; said barrier forms a similar groove sidewardly adjoining the cathode groove; and wholly, said discharge space is oriented transversely relative to the anode.
