    摘要: A light emitting diode is disclosed having a vertical orientation with an ohmic contact on portions of a top surface of the diode and a mirror layer adjacent the light emitting region of the diode. The diode includes an opening in the mirror layer beneath the geometric projection of the top ohmic contact through the diode that defines a non-contact area between the mirror layer and the light emitting region of the diode to encourage current flow to take place other than at the non-contact area to in turn decrease the number of light emitting recombinations beneath the ohmic contact and increase the number of light emitting recombinations in the more transparent portions of the diode.

    摘要: A semiconductor light emitting diode includes a semiconductor substrate, an epitaxial layer of n-type Group III nitride on the substrate, a p-type epitaxial layer of Group III nitride on the n-type epitaxial layer and forming a p-n junction with the n-type layer, and a resistive gallium nitride region on the n-type epitaxial layer and adjacent the p-type epitaxial layer for electrically isolating portions of the p-n junction. A metal contact layer is formed on the p-type epitaxial layer. Some embodiments include a semiconductor substrate, an epitaxial layer of n-type Group III nitride on the substrate, a p-type epitaxial layer of Group III nitride on the n-type epitaxial layer and forming a p-n junction with the n-type layer, wherein portions of the epitaxial region are patterned into a mesa and wherein the sidewalls of the mesa comprise a resistive Group III nitride region for electrically isolating portions of the p-n junction. In method embodiments disclosed, the resistive border is formed by forming an implant mask on the p-type epitaxial region and implanting ions into portions of the p-type epitaxial region to render portions of the p-type epitaxial region semi-insulating. A photoresist mask or a sufficiently thick metal layer may be used as the implant mask. In some method embodiments, a mesa is formed in the epitaxial region prior to implantation. During implantation, the epiwafer is mounted at an angle such that ions are implanted directly into the sidewalls of the mesa, thereby rendering portions of the mesa semi-insulating. The epiwafer may be rotated during ion implantation.

    摘要: A light emitting device includes an active layer configured to provide light emission due to carrier recombination therein, a surface on the active layer, and an electrically conductive contact structure on the surface. The contact structure includes at least one plated contact layer. The contact structure may include a sublayer that conforms to the surface roughness of the underlying surface, and the plated contact layer may be substantially free of the surface roughness of the underlying surface. The surface of the plated contact layer may be substantially planar and/or otherwise configured to reflect the light emission from the active layer. Related fabrication methods are also discussed.
