Patents by Inventor Johngeon Shin

Johngeon Shin has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7317212
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light emitting diode. According to the present invention, a structure capable of reducing total reflection of light, including micro-lenses or projections made of a material with a refractive index different from that of a semiconductor layer in the vicinity of an active layer, is formed within or on the surface of the semiconductor layer in the vicinity of an active layer so that light generated in an active layer of the light emitting diode can be efficiently extracted to enhance luminance.

  • Publication number: 20070190678
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nitride semiconductor thin film having less defects and a method of growing the same. According to the present invention, the nitride semiconductor thin film with lower defect density can be manufactured by forming grooves on a substrate, sequentially forming a buffer layer and a first nitride semiconductor thin film on a whole surface of the substrate, etching higher defect density regions of the first nitride semiconductor thin film, and then laterally growing a second nitride semiconductor thin film. Thus, a highly crystalline nitride semiconductor thin film can be obtained. Therefore, there are advantages in that high-efficiency, high-power and high-reliability optical devices or electronic devices can be manufactured and high throughput can also be obtained by using the obtained nitride semiconductor thin film.
