Patent ID: 8716738

Claim:
A semiconductor light-emitting device, comprising: a substrate; a light emitting structure on the substrate, the light emitting structure comprising a first conductive semiconductor layer on the substrate, a second conductive semiconductor layer on the first conductive semiconductor layer, and an active layer between the first conductive semiconductor layer and the second conductive semiconductor layer; a transparent electrode layer on the second conductive semiconductor layer; a metal layer disposed on a top surface of the transparent electrode layer; a transparent layer disposed on a top surface of the metal layer and physically contacted with the top surface of the metal layer; and an electrode electrically connected to the metal layer and physically contacted with a portion of the metal layer, wherein the transparent layer has a hole and a portion of the electrode is disposed in the hole, wherein the transparent layer has a material different from the transparent electrode layer, wherein the transparent layer has a thickness different from a thickness of the metal layer and the transparent electrode layer, and wherein a thickness of the transparent electrode layer is different from a thickness of the metal layer.
