In this case, an unstable delamination phenomenon may exist between the inner layers of the device. Accordingly, by removing the sacrificial substrate 147, the delamination phenomenon between the inner layers of the device can be prevented.
Once the sacrificial substrate 147 is removed, mesa etching is performed on a chip boundary region by using a mask pattern on the ohmic contact layer 140.
The isolation etching process is performed until the ohmic contact layer 140, the P-type semiconductor layer 130, the active layer 120, and the N-type semiconductor layer 110 are exposed. The depth of the isolation etching is under about 1.0 μm or may be etched until the N-type semiconductor layer 110 is exposed.
Accordingly, the upper surface of the N-type semiconductor layer 110 is exposed around the circumference of the light emitting structure 135.
Ga-Face is exposed at the upper region 137 around the circumference of the N-type semiconductor layer 110. At this point, since Ga-Face exposed at the N-type semiconductor layer 110 is a nonmetal having a lower operation voltage, it is thermally stable compared to N-Face, and also prevents a short circuit with other layers when an external impact is applied to the sidewall of the light emitting structure.
The active layer 120 is spaced apart from the conductive support member 103 by the upper region 137 of the N-type semiconductor layer 110.

Each of the roughness 150 is formed with a thickness of more than a predetermined value (for example, about 1.0 μm) and also with a regular or irregular micro-interval (for example, about 0.5 μm to about 5 μm).
The roughness 150 can compensate for optical extraction through a structure corresponding to a related art N-type roughness pattern, and may not be formed.
An electrode 160 is formed on a portion of the ohmic contact layer 140. The electrode 160 may be formed of one of Ag, Ag alloy, Ni, Al, Al alloy, Rh, Pd, Ir, Ru, Mg, Zn, Pt, Au, and Hf, and an alloy thereof, but is not limited thereto.
