Abstract
There is provided a light emitting device using a compound semiconductor, which can improve electrical characteristics and internal quantum efficiency by maximizing the recombination rate of electrons and holes in an active layer. The light emitting device using a compound semiconductor includes a substrate; a compound semiconductor layer formed on the substrate, the compound semiconductor layer comprising an active layer; and a current spreading layer formed on at least one of the top and bottom surfaces of the active layer, the current spreading layer allowing electrons or holes to be uniformly spread into the active layer.
