Abstract

A nitride LED having a laminated structure in which a substrate, a n-type cladding layer, an active layer, a p-type cladding layer, and a multi-ohmic contact layer are sequentially stacked, and a manufacturing method thereof, are provided. In the nitride LED, the multi-ohmic contact layer includes multiple layers of a first transparent film layer/silver/second transparent film layer. In the nitride LED and a manufacturing method thereof, ohmic contact characteristics with respect to the p-type cladding layer are enhanced, thereby exhibiting a good current-voltage characteristic. Also, since the transparent electrodes have a high light transmitting property, the light emitting efficiency of the device is increased.
