  • Patent number: 8664019
    Abstract: A vertical group III-nitride light emitting device and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The light emitting device comprises: a conductive substrate; a p-type clad layer stacked on the conductive substrate; an active layer stacked on the p-type clad layer; an n-doped AlxGayIn1-x-yN layer stacked on the active layer; an undoped GaN layer stacked on the n-doped layer; and an n-electrode formed on the undoped GaN layer. The undoped GaN layer has a rough pattern formed on a top surface thereof.

  • Patent number: 7648849
    Abstract: A flip chip-type nitride semiconductor light emitting diode includes a light transmittance substrate, an n-type nitride semiconductor layer, an active layer, a p-type nitride semiconductor layer and a mesh-type DBR reflecting layer. The mesh-type DBR reflecting layer has a plurality of open regions. The mesh-type DBR reflecting layer is composed of first and second nitride layers having different Al content. The first and second nitride layers are alternately stacked several times to form the mesh-type DBR reflecting layer. An ohmic contact layer is formed on the mesh-type DBR reflecting layer and on the p-type nitride semiconductor layer.

  • Patent number: 7485482
    Abstract: The invention provides a vertical group III-nitride light emitting device improved in external extraction efficiency and a method for manufacturing the same. The method includes forming an undoped GaN layer and an insulating layer on a basic substrate. Then, the insulating layer is selectively etched to form an insulating pattern, and an n-doped AlxGayIn(1-x-y)N layer, an active layer and a p-doped AlmGanIn(1-m-n)N layer are sequentially formed on the insulating pattern. A conductive substrate is formed on the p-doped AlmGanIn(1-m-n)N layer. The basic substrate, the undoped gaN layer and the insulating pattern are removed, and an n-electrode is formed on a part of the exposed surface of the n-doped AlxGayIn(1-x-y)N layer.

  • Patent number: 7259447
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a flip-chip type nitride semiconductor light emitting diode. The light emitting diode comprises an n-type nitride semiconductor layer formed on a transparent substrate and having a substantially rectangular upper surface, an n-side electrode which comprises at least one bonding pad adjacent to at least one corner of the upper surface of the n-type nitride semiconductor layer, extended electrodes formed in a band from the bonding pad along four sides of the upper surface of the n-type nitride semiconductor layer and one or more fingers extended in a diagonal direction of the upper surface from the bonding pad and/or the extended electrodes, an active layer and a p-type nitride semiconductor layer sequentially stacked on a region of the n-type nitride semiconductor layer where the n-side electrode is not formed, and a highly reflective ohmic contact layer formed on the p-type nitride semiconductor layer.
