A GaN-based LED with a current spreading structure, the LED including a substrate, a light-emitting epitaxial layer over the substrate, and a current spreading structure over the light-emitting epitaxial layer. The current spreading structure includes a transparent electrode spreading bar, and a metal electrode spreading bar attached to the side wall of the transparent electrode spreading bar. The current spreading structure can improve the current spreading effect, reducing or eliminating of electrode shading, improving luminous efficiency of the LED, and avoid or reduce high voltage (Vf).

GaN-based light emitting diode with current spreading structure

A light-emitting diode includes a substrate; a light-emitting epitaxial layer, laminated by semiconductor material layers and formed over the substrate; a first current spreading layer over the light-emitting epitaxial layer; an adhesive layer with alternating second current spreading layers and first metal barrier layers over the first current spreading layer, including three structure layers; a second metal barrier layer over the adhesive layer with alternating second current spreading layers and metal barrier layers; and a metal electrode layer over the second metal barrier layer.

Light-emitting diode and fabrication method thereof

A light emitting diode includes: a substrate; a light-emitting epitaxial layer, from bottom to up, laminated by semiconductor material layers of a first confinement layer, a light-emitting layer and a second confinement layer over the substrate; a current blocking layer over partial region of the light-emitting epitaxial layer; a transparent conducting structure over the current blocking layer that extends to the light-emitting epitaxial layer surface and is divided into a light-emitting region and a non-light-emitting region, in which, the non-light-emitting region corresponds to the current blocking layer with thickness larger than that of the light-emitting region, thus forming a good ohmic contact between this structure and the light-emitting epitaxial layer and reducing light absorption; and a P electrode over the non-light-emitting region of the transparent conducting structure, which guarantees current spreading performance and reduces working voltage and light absorption.
