Problems solved by technology

Due to the staggered structure of its electrodes, if there is a slight deviation in the production, the staggered structure is not uniform and symmetrical, which will lead to insufficient current expansion, resulting in uneven light emission, and the light output area is small, and there is a limitation of total reflection angle, and the light output efficiency is low.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] A light-emitting diode of the present invention, comprising a sapphire substrate 4, a GaN nucleation layer 5, a GaN buffer layer 6, an n-type GaN ohmic contact layer 7, an InGaN / GaN quantum well active layer 8, and a p-type AlGaN carrier blocking layer 9. A p-type GaN ohmic contact layer 10 , a p-type ohmic-contact transparent electrode 11 , an n-type ohmic-contact electrode 13 , and a p-type ohmic-contact electrode 12 . The p-type ohmic contact electrode 12 is a concentric circular structure, such as image 3 , in order to make full use of the light emitting area, a plurality of p-type ohmic contact electrodes 12 with concentric circle structures are integrated on the same chip. There is a groove 3 between the p-type ohmic contact electrodes 12. The groove 3 increases the probability of side light emission and the light emission area, avoiding light being absorbed by the material and electrodes (including the p-type ohmic contact transparent electrode 11), and the ring...

Abstract

The invention discloses a LED, which comprises: a sapphire substrate, a GaN buffer layer, an N/P-type GaN/ohmic contact layer, an InGaN/GaN quantum trap active layer, and a concentric P-type ohmic contact transparent electrode with grooves between near ring electrodes manufactured by dry etching. This invention makes even current injection, increases probability of side-surface light, reduces reflection angle, and thereby decreases greatly light energy loss.
