In some embodiments, the host may be separated from the semiconductor structure and seed layer by etching away the bonding layer.

    摘要: A semiconductor light emitting device includes an in-plane active region that emits linearly-polarized light. An in-plane active region may include, for example, a {11 20} or {10 10} InGaN light emitting layer. In some embodiments, a polarizer oriented to pass light of a polarization of a majority of light emitted by the active region serves as a contact. In some embodiments, two active regions emitting the same or different colored light are separated by a polarizer oriented to pass light of a polarization of a majority of light emitted by the bottom active region, and to reflect light of a polarization of a majority of light emitted by the top active region. In some embodiments, a polarizer reflects light scattered by a wavelength converting layer.

    摘要: LED epitaxial layers (n-type, p-type, and active layers) are grown on a substrate. For each die, the n and p layers are electrically bonded to a package substrate that extends beyond the boundaries of the LED die such that the LED layers are between the package substrate and the growth substrate. The package substrate provides electrical contacts and conductors leading to solderable package connections. The growth substrate is then removed. Because the delicate LED layers were bonded to the package substrate while attached to the growth substrate, no intermediate support substrate for the LED layers is needed. The relatively thick LED epitaxial layer that was adjacent the removed growth substrate is then thinned and its top surface processed to incorporate light extraction features. There is very little absorption of light by the thinned epitaxial layer, there is high thermal conductivity to the package because the LED layers are directly bonded to the package substrate without any support substrate therebetween, and there is little electrical resistance between the package and the LED layers so efficiency (light output vs. power input) is high. The light extraction features of the LED layer further improves efficiency.

    摘要: A photonic crystal is grown within a semiconductor structure, such as a III-nitride structure, which includes a light emitting region disposed between an n-type region and a p-type region. The photonic crystal may be multiple regions of semiconductor material separated by a material having a different refractive index than the semiconductor material. For example, the photonic crystal may be posts of semiconductor material grown in the structure and separated by air gaps or regions of masking material. Growing the photonic crystal, rather than etching a photonic crystal into an already-grown semiconductor layer, avoids damage caused by etching which may reduce efficiency, and provides uninterrupted, planar surfaces on which to form electric contacts.

    摘要: A III-nitride light emitting layer in a semiconductor light emitting device has a graded composition. The composition of the light emitting layer may be graded such that the change in the composition of a first element is at least 0.2% per angstrom of light emitting layer. Grading in the light emitting layer may reduce problems associated with polarization fields in the light emitting layer. The light emitting layer may be, for example InxGa1−xN, AlxGa1−xN, or InxAlyGa1−x−yN.
