Abstract:
A light emitting diode (LED) used as an illuminant of an image sensor, comprising a fabricated block, a first electrode and a second electrode contained in the fabricated block for transmitting an electric current to a PN surface of a semiconductor that is contained in the fabricated block and secured in a top portion of the first electrode, the semiconductor having a light-projecting axis forming an acute angle with an elongate line of a bottom of the fabricated block;wherein the first electrode comprises a recess defined in a top thereof, the semiconductor is secured in the recess, and the angle formed by the light-projecting axis of the semiconductor and the elongate line of a bottom of the fabricated block is set between 15 degrees and 85 degrees; wherein the recess is inclined relative to an axis of the second electrode, including a first lead extending therefrom and perpendicularly penetrating through a flat bottom of the fabricated block, the second electrode including a second lead extending therefrom and perpendicularly penetrating through the flat bottom of the fabricated block, the fabricated block having an plane mirror formed on a top thereof and parallel the semiconductor.
