摘要:
A method for fabricating light emitting diode (LED) dice includes the step of forming a light emitting diode (LED) die having a multiple quantum well (MQW) layer configured to emit electromagnetic radiation, and a confinement layer on the multiple quantum well (MQW) layer having a wire bond pad. The method also includes the steps of forming a dam on the wire bond pad configured to protect a wire bond area on the wire bond pad, forming an adhesive layer on the confinement layer and the wire bond pad with the dam protecting the wire bond area, and forming a wavelength conversion layer on the adhesive layer. A light emitting diode (LED) die includes the dam on the wire bond pad, the adhesive layer on the confinement layer and the wavelength conversion layer on the adhesive layer configured to convert the electromagnetic radiation to a second spectral region.

Techniques for fabricating metal devices, such as vertical light-emitting diode (VLED) devices, power devices, laser diodes, and vertical cavity surface emitting laser devices, are provided. Devices produced accordingly may benefit from greater yields and enhanced performance over conventional metal devices, such as higher brightness of the light-emitting diode and increased thermal conductivity. Moreover, the invention discloses techniques in the fabrication arts that are applicable to GaN-based electronic devices in cases where there is a high heat dissipation rate of the metal devices that have an original non-(or low) thermally conductive and/or non-(or low) electrically conductive carrier substrate that has been removed.

A high-brightness vertical light emitting diode (LED) device having an outwardly located metal electrode. The LED device is formed by: forming the metal electrode on an edge of a surface of a LED epitaxy structure using a deposition method, such as physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), evaporation, electro-plating, or any combination thereof; and then performing a packaging process. The composition of the LED may be a nitride, a phosphide or an arsenide. The LED of the invention has the following advantages: improving current spreading performance, reducing light-absorption of the metal electrode, increasing brightness, increasing efficiency, and thereby improving energy efficiency. The metal electrode is located on the edge of the device and on the light emitting side. The metal electrode has two side walls, among which one side wall can receive more emission light from the device in comparison with the other one.

Methods for fabricating a semiconductor light-emitting diode (LED) device with increased light extraction are provided. The method generally includes applying a mask to a surface of an LED wafer, etching the surface of the LED wafer such that etched pits are formed in the surface, removing the mask, and roughening or texturing the surface of the LED wafer including the etched pits. In this manner, the surface area of the LED device may be increased when compared to a conventional LED device, and less emitted light may experience total internal reflection (TIR) according to Snell's law, thereby leading to increased light extraction.

Techniques for fabricating contacts on inverted configuration surfaces of GaN layers of semiconductor devices are provided. An n-doped GaN layer may be formed with a surface exposed by removing a substrate on which the n-doped GaN layer was formed. The crystal structure of such a surface may have a significantly different configuration than the surface of an as-deposited p-doped GaN layer.
