  • Patent number: 10014442
    Abstract: A vertical type light emitting diode includes a nitride semiconductor having a p-n conjunction structure with a transparent material layer formed on a p type clad layer, the transparent material layer having a refractive index different from that of the p type clad layer and having a pattern structure of mesh, punched plate, or one-dimensional grid form, etc. A reflective metal electrode layer is formed on the transparent material layer as a p-electrode. A stereoscopic pattern is formed in the transparent material layer and the p-electrode deposited, and thereby forming the pattern in the p-electrode. Depositing the p-electrode on only 10 to 70% of the upper portion of the p type clad layer in an ultraviolet ray light emitting diode such that an area where the p type clad layer is exposed is wide increases the transmittance of ultraviolet rays through an area where the p-electrode is not deposited.

  • Patent number: 8003419
    Abstract: Provided is a method of manufacturing a light emitting device from a large-area bonding wafer by using a wafer bonding method using. The method may include forming a plurality of semiconductor layers, each having an active region for emitting light, on a plurality of growth substrates. The method may also include arranging the plurality of growth substrates on which the semiconductor layers are formed on one bonding substrate and simultaneously processing each of the semiconductor layers formed on each of the growth substrates through subsequent processes. The bonding wafer may be formed of a material that reduces or prevents bending or warping due to a difference of thermal expansion coefficients between a wafer material, such as sapphire, and a bonding wafer. According to the above method, because a plurality of wafers may be processed by one process, mass production of LEDs may be possible which may reduce manufacturing costs.

  • Patent number: 8003992
    Abstract: Example embodiments provide a light emitting diode (LED) having improved polarization characteristics. The LED may include wire grid polarizers on and below a light emitting unit. The wire grid polarizers may be arranged at an angle to each other. Thus, because the LED may emit a light beam in a given polarization direction, an expensive component, e.g., a dual brightness enhanced film (DBEF), is not required. Thus, manufacturing costs of a backlight unit including the LED and a display apparatus including the backlight unit may be reduced.
