  • Patent number: 10608144
    Abstract: Provided is a light emitting diode (LED) mounted on a carrier substrate and including a semiconductor epitaxial structure and at least one electrode pad structure. The semiconductor epitaxial structure is electrically connected to the carrier substrate. The electrode pad structure includes a eutectic layer, a barrier layer and a ductility layer. The eutectic layer is adapted for eutectic bonding to the carrier substrate. The barrier layer is between the eutectic layer and the semiconductor epitaxial structure. The barrier layer blocks the diffusion of the material of the eutectic layer in the eutectic bonding process. The ductility layer is between the eutectic layer and the semiconductor epitaxial structure. The ductility layer reduces the stress on the LED produced by thermal expansion and contraction of the substrate during the eutectic bonding process, so as to prevent the electrode pad structure from cracking, and maintain the quality of the LED.

  • Publication number: 20190115487
    Abstract: The present invention provides a perovskite solar cell module including: a light-transparent substrate, a plurality of solar cells, a plurality of insulating units, and a plurality of connecting units. Each solar cell is constituted by a transparent conductive layer, a first carrier conducting layer, a perovskite layer, and a second carrier conducting layer. By changing the ratio of area where the light is harvested for the perovskite layer, the photon absorption in the present invention therefore increases. Additionally, by changing the relevant position of the transparent conductive layer and the first carrier conducting layer, it renders the side surface of the transparent conductive layer be entirely covered by the first carrier conducting layer; thus, the usage of carriers is enhanced. The above two adoptions further enhance the efficiency of the module.
