  • Publication number: 20110121330
    Abstract: A gallium nitride (GaN) light emitting device and a method of manufacturing the same are provided, the method including sequentially forming a buffer layer and a first nitride layer on a silicon substrate, and forming a plurality of patterns by dry etching the first nitride layer. Each pattern includes a pair of sidewalls facing each other. A reflective layer is deposited on the first nitride layer so that one sidewall of the pair is exposed by the reflective layer. An n-type nitride layer that covers the first nitride layer is formed by horizontally growing an n-type nitride from the exposed sidewall, and a GaN-based light emitting structure layer is formed on the n-type nitride layer.

  • Publication number: 20110037098
    Abstract: Substrate structures and methods of manufacturing the substrate structures. A substrate structure is manufactured by forming a protrusion area of a substrate under a buffer layer, and forming a semiconductor layer on the buffer layer, thereby separating the substrate from the buffer layer except in an area where the protrusion is formed. The semiconductor layer on the buffer layer not contacting the substrate has freestanding characteristics, and dislocation or cracks may be reduced and/or prevented.
