The fourth reflective layer 184 may include the material identical to or different from that of the third reflective layer 183.
The first and second electrode pads 170 and 180 can be formed as follows. A photoresist layer is coated on the top surface of the semiconductor layer and a pad region is exposed through a lithography process. Then, the layers 171 to 174 of the first electrode pad 170 and the layers 181 to 184 of the second electrode pad 180 are sequentially formed. The layers 171 to 174 of the first electrode pad 170 and the layers 181 to 184 of the second electrode pad 180 are deposited in the vacuum evaporator through the E-beam evaporation scheme. After that, layers, which are unnecessarily formed on the photoresist layer, are removed. Such a method for forming the first and second electrode pads 170 and 180 can be changed, and the embodiment is not limited thereto.
In the semiconductor light emitting device 100, if current is applied to the first and second electrode pads 170 and 180, light generated from the active layer 140 is omni-directionally emitted. Some light is travelled toward the first or second electrode pad 170 or 180, and then reflected from the first and third reflective layers 172 and 182. In addition, light travelled from the outside to the inside of the device is reflected from the second or fourth reflective layer 174 or 184. Thus, the light efficiency can be improved.
The semiconductor light emitting device 100 is a lateral type semiconductor light emitting device. According to another embodiment, a vertical type semiconductor light emitting device can be used for the semiconductor light emitting device 100.
The vertical type semiconductor light emitting device may include a reflective electrode layer serving as the second electrode pad and a conductive support member formed on the second conductive type semiconductor layer and the growth substrate under the first conductive type semiconductor is removed. The reflective electrode layer is the second electrode pad where the adhesive layer, the third reflective layer, the second barrier metal layer and the fourth reflective layer are sequentially formed, but the embodiment is not limited thereto.
After the growth substrate under the first conductive type semiconductor layer has been removed, the conductive support member is placed on the base and the wet etching and/or the dry etching process is performed to expose the first conductive type semiconductor layer. As the first conductive type semiconductor layer is exposed, the first electrode pad is formed on the first conductive type semiconductor layer. The first electrode pad includes the first adhesive layer, the first reflective layer, the first barrier metal layer and the second metal layer. The stack structure and material for the first electrode pad is similar to those of the first embodiment. The electrode pad can be properly selected within the scope of the present invention.
