Nai-Guann Yih 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: 6992331
    Abstract: Disclosed are a GaN based compound semiconductor light emitting diode (LED) and a manufacturing method therefor. In the LED, a combination of a light extraction layer and an adaptive layer is formed over a multi-layer epitaxial structure,wherein the light extraction layer is a light transmissible impurity doped metal oxide and the adaptive layer is a Ni/Au layer used to enhance ohmic contact between the light extraction layer and the multi-layer epitaxial structure.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20040094772
    Abstract: Disclosed are a GaN based compound semiconductor light emitting diode (LED) and a manufacturing method therefore. In the LED, a multi-layer epitaxial structure including an active layer is formed over a substrate, and a light transmissive impurity doped metal oxide which may be formed over a Ni/Au layer is used as a light extraction layer while the Ni/Au layer is taken as an ohmic contact layer between the light extraction layer and the multi-layer epitaxial structure. Then, an n-type metal electrode is disposed over an exposing region of an n-type semiconductor and a p-type metal electrode over the light extraction layer. The LED is thus formed.
