  • Patent number: 7906786
    Abstract: A light emitting device is provided. In the present invention, a magnetic material is added to the light emitting device to change the current path and the distribution of the current density. As the main distribution of the current density is moved from the area between the electrodes to the area under light-out plane, the emitted light is no longer blocked by the electrodes, such that the light emitting efficiency can be enhanced and the distribution of the current density remains homogeneous.

  • Patent number: 7663153
    Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) is provided. The LED at least includes a substrate, a saw-toothed multilayer, a first type semiconductor layer, an active emitting layer and a second type semiconductor layer. In the LED, the saw-tooth multilayer is formed opposite the active emitting layer below the first type semiconductor layer by an auto-cloning photonic crystal process. Due to the presence of the saw-tooth multilayer on the substrate of the LED, the scattered light form a back of the active emitting layer can be reused by reflecting and recycling through the saw-tooth multilayer. Thus, all light is focused to radiate forward so as to improve the light extraction efficiency of the LED. Moreover, the saw-tooth multilayer does not peel off or be cracked after any high temperature process because the saw-tooth multilayer has the performance of releasing thermal stress and reducing elastic deformation between it and the substrate.
