Abstract
A light-emitting device is provided. The light-emitting device comprises: a semiconductor structure comprising a first type semiconductor layer, a second type semiconductor layer, and an active layer between the first type semiconductor layer and the second type semiconductor layer; and an isolation region through the second type semiconductor and the active layer to separate the semiconductor structure into a first part and a second part on the first substrate; wherein the second part functions as a low-resistance resistor and loses its make diode behavior, the active layer in the first part is capable of generating light, and the active layer in the second part is incapable of generating light.
