The device according to the invention comprises a nanostructured LED with a first group of nanowires protruding from a first area of a substrate and a contacting means in a second area of the substrate. Each nanowire of the first group of nanowires comprises a p-i-n-junction and a top portion of each nanowire or at least one selection of nanowires is covered with a light-reflecting contact layer. The contacting means of the second area is in electrical contact with the bottom of the nanowires, the light-reflecting contact layer being in electrical contact with the contacting means of the second area via the p-i-n-junction. Thus when a voltage is applied between the contacting means of the second area and the light-reflecting contact layer, light is generated within the nanowire. On top of the light-reflecting contact layer, a first group of contact pads for flip-chip bonding can be provided, distributed and separated to equalize the voltage across the layer to reduce the average serial resistance.

Display device including nanostructured LEDs connected in parallel

The present invention relates to nanostructured light emitting diodes, LEDs. The nanostructure LED device according to the invention comprises an array of a plurality of individual nanostructured LEDs. Each of the nanostructured LEDs has an active region wherein light is produced. The nanostructured device further comprise a plurality of reflectors, each associated to one individual nanostructured LED (or a group of nanostructured LEDs. The individual reflectors has a concave surface facing the active region of the respective individual nanostructured LED or active regions of group of nanostructured LEDs.

A nanostructured device according to the invention comprises a first group of nanowires protruding from a substrate where each nanowire of the first group of nanowires comprises at least one pn- or p-i-n-junction. A first contact, at least partially encloses and is electrically connected to a first side of the pn- or p-i-n-junction of each nanowire in the first group of nanowires. A second contacting means comprises a second group of nanowires that protrudes from the substrate, and is arranged to provide an electrical connection to a second side of the pn- or p-i-n-junction.

A method and apparatus to provide a low resistance interconnect. A void is defined in the sacrificial layer that is proximate to an active layer. An overgrowth layer is formed in the void and over portions of the sacrificial layer adjacent to the void. A ridge section is defined in the overgrowth layer and portions of the sacrificial layer are removed to define a shank section in the overgrowth layer under the ridge section. The ridge section having a greater lateral dimension than the shank section to reduce electrical resistance between the active layer and electrical interconnects to be electrically coupled to the ridge section.
