Abstract
A light-emitting diode having a light-generating layer for generating an electromagnetic radiation by electroluminescence, a light-emitting surface through which the radiation is emitted, and a light-reflecting layer remote from the light-emitting surface, for reflecting a portion of the radiation toward the light-generating layer so that the radiation reflected by the light-reflecting layer is also emitted through the light-emitting surface. The light-reflecting layer consists of two or more interference type reflecting layers which include one or more reflecting layers each capable of most efficiently reflecting a wave whose wavelength is longer than the nominal wavelength of the radiation. The light-emitting surface may have irregularity for irregularly reflecting the radiation, or an anti-reflection layer formed thereon by deposition.
