Benefits of technology

[0011] The present invention has been made to solve the foregoing problems of the prior art and it is therefore an object of the present invent

Problems solved by technology

Most of all, the biggest problem concerns low external extraction efficiency, that is, light generated is externally extracted at a low efficiency.
The greatest hurdle against light extraction out of the LED is extinction of light resulting from total internal reflection.
This increases a heat release rate of the LED, and decreases external extraction efficiency of the LED, thus shortening lifetime thereof.
Accordingly, current concentrates
