  • Publication number: 20070057266
    Abstract: A method of fabricating light emitting diodes (LED) with a colour purifying diffraction lattice (CPDL) is suggested, the essence of the invention is in the use of the coherent scattering of the light by the CPDL for colour purifying of the light emitted by the LED and enhancement its extraction efficiency, the CPDL is a hexagonal two-dimensional periodical pattern on the surface of the LED structure or an internal interface resulting in the periodical variation in the refractive index with the period d The period of CPDL satisfies the equation d=m.lamda./n, where m is a positive integer number, .lamda. is the wavelength of the light generated by LED, and n is the refraction index of LED structure. The height of the hexagonal islands forming CPDL is h=.lamda.(2l+1)/2n, l is a positive integer number or zero. Use of CPDL allows to convert the laterally propagating light into the vertically propagating and simultaneously filter its spectrum.

  • Publication number: 20060081869
    Abstract: A flip-chip electrode light-emitting element formed by multilayer coatings where a translucent conducting layer and a highly reflective metal layer acts as flip-chip electrode for enhancing the LED luminous efficiency. The flip-chip electrode light-emitting element includes a translucent substrate, a semiconductor die structure attached on the translucent substrate and made of group III nitride compounds, and an intermediate layer adapted to support the inverted semiconductor die structure on a submount. The flip-chip electrode formed by multiplayer coatings includes a current-spreading transparent conducting layer formed on a top side of the second type semiconductor layer, a highly reflective metal layer formed on a top side of the transparent conducting layer, a metallic diffusion barrier layer formed on a top side of the highly reflective metal layer, and a bonding layer electrically coupled to the intermediate layer and formed on a top side of the barrier layer.

  • Publication number: 20050093427
    Abstract: A full-color light-emitting diode (LED) having a red LED die, a blue LED die, and a green LED die. The red LED die serves as a supporting material on which the blue LED die and the green LED die are separately mounted in such a manner that the red LED die is not completely covered to reserve a red-light emitting surface. In this way, the red, blue, and green LED die forms a double-layer full-color LED to facilitate the packaging operation, to ensure a more compact mixture of red, green, and blue lights and to achieve an exact wave-mixing effect for obtaining a full-color light.
