    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to micro-device arrays. In some embodiments, an array comprises a substrate and a plurality of micro-devices. Each micro-device is suspended over a cavity in the substrate by at least one lateral hinge attached to a side post formed into the substrate. Each micro-device comprises a bonding layer; a metal contact; semiconductor device layers; and a buffer layer. The semiconductor device layers may comprise GaN-based LED layers; wherein the buffer layer comprises AlGaN; and wherein the substrate comprises (111) oriented Silicon. In other cases, the semiconductor device layers may comprise InGaAsP-based LED layers; wherein the buffer layer comprises InGaP; and wherein the substrate comprises GaAs.

    Abstract: A light emitting device comprises a first layer of an n-type semiconductor material, a second layer of a p-type semiconductor material, and an active layer between the first layer and the second layer. A light coupling layer is disposed adjacent to one of the first layer and the second layer. In some cases, the light coupling layer is formed by roughening a buffer layer of the light emitting device. The light emitting device includes an electrode in electrical communication with one of the first layer and the second layer through a portion of the light coupling layer.

    Abstract: An LED device includes a strip-shaped electrode, a strip-shaped current blocking structure and a plurality of distributed current blocking structures. The current blocking structures are formed of an insulating material such as silicon dioxide. The strip-shaped current blocking structure is located directly underneath the strip-shaped electrode. The plurality of current blocking structures may be disc shaped portions disposed in rows adjacent the strip-shaped current blocking structure. Distribution of the current blocking structures is such that current is prevented from concentrating in regions immediately adjacent the electrode, thereby facilitating uniform current flow into the active layer and facilitating uniform light generation in areas not underneath the electrode. In another aspect, current blocking structures are created by damaging regions of a p-GaN layer to form resistive regions. In yet another aspect, current blocking structures are created by etching away highly doped contact regions to form regions of resistive contact between conductive layers.

    Abstract: This invention provides a light-emitting diode chip with high light extraction, which includes a substrate, an epitaxial-layer structure for generating light by electric-optical effect, a transparent reflective layer sandwiched between the substrate and the epitaxial-layer structure, and a pair of electrodes for providing power supply to the epitaxial-layer structure. A bottom surface and top surface of the epitaxial-layer structure are roughened to have a roughness not less than 100 nm root mean square (rms). The light generated by the epitaxial-layer structure is hence effectively extracted out. A transparent reflective layer not more than 5 μm rms is formed as an interface between the substrate and the epitaxial-layer structure. The light toward the substrate is more effectively reflected upward. The light extraction and brightness are thus enhanced. Methods for manufacturing the light-emitting diode chip of the present invention are also provided.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, there is disclosed a waveguide medium using total internal reflection to create a relatively sharp (approximately 90°) bend for optical signals traversing the waveguide. A discontinuity of the medium (such as air) is used to create a turning mirror within the waveguide path. By curving the discontinuity, the entire input optical signal is focused into the output portion of the waveguide, thereby compensating for the diffraction loss of the optical signal at the bend. In one embodiment in order to facilitate proper alignment of the masks certain portions of the waveguide on a first mask are extended (widened) beyond their optimum physical size. This extended portion is then used to position an edge of a second mask, such that optical signal scatter caused by the extended portions of the waveguide are compensated for by adjusting the curvature.
