Abstract:
1. A light emitting device comprising: a conductive support member; a first conductive layer disposed on the conductive support member; a second conductive layer disposed on the first conductive layer; a light emitting structure including a first semiconductor layer over the second conductive layer, a second semiconductor layer between the first semiconductor layer and the second conductive layer and an active layer between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer; and an insulation layer between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, wherein the first conductive layer includes at least one via that penetrates the second conductive layer, the second semiconductor layer and the active layer, and the via is disposed within the first semiconductor layer, wherein the insulation layer is disposed to extend along a side of the via, and wherein the first semiconductor layer includes an ohmic contact layer formed on or above the via within the first semiconductor layer.
