  • Publication number: 20130032825
    Abstract: The present invention is a light emitting device apparatus and method of fabrication. The structure employs a waveguide in the lateral (x) direction formed via materials index, resonant wavelength and/or current-induced index changes. In the vertical (y) direction a resonant optical cavity is formed via distributed Bragg reflector and/or metal mirrors with sufficient reflectivity so as to create a substantial standing wave. The light is thereby constricted to propagate in the longitudinal (z) direction. A tapered output section may be employed to suppress lasing in the longitudinal direction or to losslessly transfer the light from the confined section to a resonant output coupler. Conversely, feedback may be employed to induce lasing in the longitudinal direction by suitable means, such as a periodic variation in the material index, resonant wavelength, gain or loss. The resonant output coupler may be formed by suitable means, such as mirror or cavity modulation.

    Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) package structure and a packaging method thereof are provided. The packaging method includes: forming first conductive layers on a silicon substrate, and forming a reflection cavity and electrode via holes from a top surface of the silicon substrate; forming a reflection layer on predetermined areas of a surface of the reflection cavity, and forming second conductive layers and metal layers on surfaces of the electrode via holes; and mounting a chip and forming an encapsulant, so as to fabricate the LED package structure. In the present invention, there is no need to perform at least two plating processes for connecting upper and lower conductive layers of the silicon substrate in the electrode via holes, and the problem of poor connection of the conductive layers in the electrode via holes can be avoided, thereby making the fabrication processes simplified and time-effective and also improving the overall production yield.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a LED structure and a method for manufacturing the LED structure. The LED structure includes a substrate, a reflection layer, a first conducting layer, a light emitting layer, and a second conducting layer. The substrate has a plurality of grooves, and the reflection layer is disposed inside the plurality of grooves. The reflection layer is formed as a reflection block inside each of the grooves. The first conducting layer is disposed on the substrate, that is, the reflection layer is disposed between the first conducting layer and the substrate. The light emitting layer and the second conducting layer are sequentially disposed on the first conducting layer. The light emitting layer generates light when a current pass through the light emitting layer. Accordingly, the light generated by the light emitting layer can be emitted to the same side of the LED structure.

  • Publication number: 20130022073
    Abstract: The illustrated embodiments provide a system and a method of manufacture for a complex-coupled distributed feedback laser diode. The improved laser diode has a complex-coupled metal grating to enforce the laser to emit in a longitudinal single-frequency and suppress dynamical instabilities. In addition, the improved device uses a transparent conductive cladding layer over the metal grating and makes therefore the need for re-growth redundant.
