Abstract:
A light emitting diode, comprising:an AlGalnP multi-layer epitaxial structure including an active layer sandwiched between an upper cladding layer and a lower cladding layer; an epitaxial layer formed on said upper cladding layer in a first direction; a first ohmic contact layer formed on said epitaxial layer in said first direction; a transparent adhesive layer positioned on said first ohmic contact layer in said first direction; a transparent substrate adhered to said first ohmic contact layer via said transparent adhesive layer in said first direction; a second ohmic contact layer formed on said lower cladding layer in a second direction, said second direction being opposite to said first direction; a first metal bonding layer formed on said epitaxial layer in said second direction; a second metal bonding layer formed on said second ohmic contact layer in said second direction; and an electrode connecting channel, formed within said epitaxial layer, for electrically coupling said first metal bonding layer to said first ohmic contact layer.
