A plurality of unit patterns 120 may be repeatedly arranged to form a Figure 4B The pattern shown. Figure 4B Only four unit patterns 120 are shown. In one embodiment, the ratio of the area of ​​the patterned metal structure 108 to the area of ​​a surface of the substrate 100 (such as the surface of the second side 100b) may be in the range of 20% to 80%, such as 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%. Figure 4B The figure is only for illustration. A person skilled in the art should understand that in fact, depending on the size of the semiconductor device, the number of unit patterns 120 in the patterned metal structure 108 may also vary, and the pattern located at the edge of the semiconductor device may be cut in the subsequent device manufacturing process, leaving only a portion of the unit pattern 120.

[0138] Figure 4C for Figure 4B An enlarged view of a unit pattern 120 in FIG. Figure 4C As shown, the outline of the unit pattern 120 is rectangular, and it has a length L0 and a width W0. The length L0 and the width W0 may be in the range of 120nm to 200nm, for example, 140nm, 160nm, 180nm. The unit pattern 120 can be divided into a first area 120a, a second area 120b, a third area 120c and a fourth area 120d by an imaginary line C1 and an imaginary line C2 of the center point C of the unit pattern 120. The imaginary line C1 and the imaginary line C2 are perpendicular to each other and intersect at the center point C. The patterns of the first area 120a and the third area 120c may be symmetrical to each other, and the patterns of the second area 120b and the fourth area 120d may be symmetrical to each other. In the present embodiment, the patterns of the first area 120a and the third area 120c are symmetrical to each other relative to the center point C, and the patterns of the second area 120b and the fourth area 120d are symmetrical to each other relative to the center point C. The patterns of the first area 120a and the second area 120b are different. In this embodiment, the first area 120a, the second area 120b, the third area 120c and the fourth area 120d are connected to each other, and the first area 120a, the second area 120b, the third area 120c and the fourth area 120d respectively have the first graphic 122. Figure 4C As shown, the first graphic 122 may be a hollow rectangle with a line width W. The line width W may be in the range of 1 nm to 10 nm, for example, 2 nm, 3 nm, 4 nm, 5 nm, 6 nm, 7 nm, 8 nm, 9 nm. The first graphic 122 may have a length L1 and a width W1.

[0139] The first region 120a and the third region 120c each further include a second graphic 124, which is located in the first graphic 122 and surrounded by the first graphic 122. The second graphic 124 is, for example, an ellipse, a circle, a triangle, a rectangle or a polygon. In the present embodiment, the second graphic 124 is different from the first graphic 122 and is non-rectangular. When the second graphic 124 is an ellipse, the length of its major axis is R1 and the length of its minor axis is R2, and R1>R2. When the second graphic 124 is a circle, R1 is equal to R2. R1 and R2 may be in the range of 20nm to 60nm, for example, 25nm, 30nm, 35nm, 40nm, 45nm, 50nm, 55nm. In one embodiment, the unit pattern 120 has a square outline, that is, the length L0 is equal to the width W0. In one embodiment, the outlines of the first graphics 122 in the first area 120a, the second area 120b, the third area 120c and the fourth area 120d are all square (i.e., the length L1 is equal to the width W1), and the second graphics 124 are circular (i.e., R1=R2). Figure 4CAs shown, in this embodiment, the second region 120 b and the fourth region 120 d only have the first pattern 122 but not the second pattern 124 .

[0140] In one embodiment, the area defined by the outline of the unit pattern 120 is A0 (eg Figure 4C The area of ​​the unit pattern 120 shown is obtained by multiplying the length L0 by the width W0), and the total area of ​​all the first graphics 122 and the second graphics 124 in the unit pattern 120 is A1 (as shown in FIG. Figure 4C When the area of ​​the shaded area is the sum of the areas of the shaded areas shown in the figure), it is preferably in accordance with the following conditions: 20% ≤ (A1 / A0) × 100% ≤ 75%. For example, (A1 / A0) × 100% is 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%. In this way, the photoelectric properties of the semiconductor element can be further improved, for example, the forward voltage (vf) value of the semiconductor element can be reduced by taking into account both the luminous intensity and the contact characteristics.

[0141] In some embodiments, when 20%≤(A1 / A0)×100%≤75%, a forward voltage value vf of the semiconductor element at a current of 50mA may be in the range of 0.8V to 0.95V, such as 0.85V, 0.9V, and the luminous power of the semiconductor element may be at least in the range of 2 to 4mW, such as 2.5mW, 2.8mW, 3mW, 3.2mW, 3.5mW, etc.

Figure 4D As shown, the patterned metal structure 108 may include a pattern formed by repeatedly arranging a plurality of unit patterns 120. One of the unit patterns 120 has a side S, and an imaginary line S0 may be obtained by extending from the side S in a horizontal direction. Among the plurality of side edges of the substrate 100, the side edge S3 is closest to the side edge S. Figure 4DAs shown, the side S3 and the imaginary line S0 may have an angle θ, and preferably 0°<θ<90°, such as 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, 65°, 70°, 75°, 80°, 85°.
