A LED device is provided having a diffuse reflective surface which includes an LED chip emitting light, a reflector cup having the LED chip arranged at a bottom surface thereof and having an angled surface which diffusely reflects the light emitted by the LED chip, and a light conversion material provided in the reflector cup for converting the light emitted by the LED chip into visible light rays. The light-conversion material is spatially separated from the LED chip by a length equal or greater than the maximum length of the LED chip.

LED device having diffuse reflective surface

In a light emitting diode, a first semiconductor layer supplies electrons, and a second semiconductor layer supplies holes. An active layer is formed between the first and second semiconductor layers. The active layer receives electrons and holes, and emits light in response to coupling between the electrons and the holes. A first reflective layer is formed on a bottom portion of the first semiconductor layer, and a second reflective layer is formed on a top portion of the second semiconductor layer. The light emitted from the active layer exits toward a side of the active layer.

Provided are a highly transmissive optical thin film having an improved structure, in which, optical reflection (due to a difference in the refractive index between a semiconductor material and the air, when light is extracted from a semiconductor light emitting device into the air) may be suppressed, an optical output loss may be reduced and light transmittance efficiency may be maximized or increased, a semiconductor light emitting device having the same, and methods of fabricating the same. The optical thin film may include a first material layer having a first refractive index, a second material layer formed on the first material layer and having a second refractive index that is smaller than the first refractive index, and a graded-refractive index layer interposed or inserted between the first material layer and the second material layer and having a multi-layer structure in which refractive index distribution gradually decreases in the range between the first refractive index and the second refractive index as the refractive index distribution progresses from the first material layer toward the second material layer.

A light emitting device having a monolithic protection element and a method of fabricating the light emitting device are provided. The light emitting device includes: a light emitter having a cathode and an anode; and the resistive protection element connected to the light emitter in parallel through the cathode and the anode. Here, a resistance Rs of the resistive protection element has a value between a forward resistance Rf and a reverse resistance Rr of a current of the light emitter.
