Exemplary embodiments of the present invention disclose a light emitting diode (LED) and a method of fabricating the same. The LED includes a substrate, a semiconductor stack arranged on the substrate, the semiconductor stack including an upper semiconductor layer having a first conductivity type, an active layer, and a lower semiconductor layer having a second conductivity type, isolation trenches separating the semiconductor stack into a plurality of regions, connectors disposed between the substrate and the semiconductor stack, the connectors electrically connecting the plurality of regions to one another, and a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) having a multi-layered structure, the DBR disposed between the semiconductor stack and the connectors. The connectors are electrically connected to the semiconductor stack through the DBR, and portions of the DBR are disposed between the isolation trenches and the connectors.
