發光二極體(Light Emitting Diode, LED)係為一固態照明元件,其優點為功耗低,產生的熱能低,工作壽命長,防震,體積小,反應速度快和具有良好的光電特性,例如穩定的發光波長。因此發光二極體被廣泛應用於家用電器,設備指示燈,及光電產品等。Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a solid-state lighting element. Its advantages are low power consumption, low heat generation, long working life, shockproof, small size, fast response speed and good photoelectric characteristics, such as Stable emission wavelength. Therefore, light-emitting diodes are widely used in household appliances, equipment indicators, and optoelectronic products.
發光二極體通常包含一發光疊層和兩個電極,透過兩個電極施加一電流於發光疊層使其發光。在一般情況下,電極可透過設計使電流於發光疊層上擴散開來,使可發光的發光區域與發光疊層的表面積大致相同。然而在其它應用領域上,需要於一有限的發光區域注入一高電流密度的電流以提高發光效率。A light-emitting diode usually includes a light-emitting stack and two electrodes, through which a current is applied to the light-emitting stack to make it emit light. In general, the electrode can be designed to spread the current on the light-emitting stack, so that the light-emitting area that can emit light is approximately the same as the surface area of the light-emitting stack. However, in other application fields, it is necessary to inject a high current density current into a limited light-emitting area to improve the light-emitting efficiency.

However, the examples shown below are used to illustrate the light-emitting element of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the following examples. In addition, the dimensions, materials, shapes, relative arrangement, etc. of the constituent parts described in the examples in this specification are not limited to the description, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, but is merely a description. In addition, the size or positional relationship of the components shown in each figure will be exaggerated for clear explanation. Furthermore, in the following description, in order to appropriately omit detailed descriptions, components of the same or similar nature are shown with the same names and symbols.
第1圖及第2圖係本發明第一實施例的一發光元件100。第1圖係發光元件100的上視圖。第2圖係發光元件100沿著AA′的剖面圖。發光元件100包含一基板10,一發光疊層13位於基板10上,一反射層12位於基板10及發光疊層13之間,以及一接合層11位於反射層12與基板10之間。發光疊層13包含一第一型半導體層131,一第二型半導體層133,及一主動層132位於第一型半導體層131與第二型半導體層133之間。第一型半導體層131與第二型半導體層133提供電子與電洞,電子與電洞於一電流驅動下在主動層132複合以發出一光線。發光疊層13之材料包含Ⅲ-Ⅴ族半導體材料,例如Alx
Iny
Ga(1-x-y)
N或Alx
Iny
Ga(1-x-y)
P,其中0≦x, y≦1;(x+y)≦1。依據主動層132之材料,發光疊層13可發出波長介於610 nm及650 nm之間的紅光,波長介於530 nm及570 nm之間的綠光,或是波長介於450 nm及490 nm之間的藍光。形成發光疊層13的方法沒有特別限制,除了有機金屬化學氣相沉積法(MOCVD),亦可使用分子束磊晶(MBE),氫化物氣相沉積法(HVPE),蒸鍍法和離子電鍍方法。發光元件100更包含一第一電極16位於第二型半導體層133上,一第二電極17位於基板10上,一吸光層18位於部份第一電極16上,以及一絕緣層19位於吸光層18與第二型半導體層133之間。於本實施例中,第一電極16為一圖案化電極,包含一內部161,一外部162,及複數延伸部163電連接內部161與外部162。如第2圖所示,發光元件100更包含一歐姆接觸層15位於內部161與發光疊層13之間,並分別與內部161及發光疊層13形成一歐姆接觸。歐姆接觸層15之形狀大致與內部161之形狀相同。歐姆接觸層15未形成於外部162與發光疊層13之間。於另一實施例中(圖未示),歐姆接觸層15形成於外部162與發光疊層13之間,歐姆接觸層15之形狀大致與外部162之形狀相同。內部161與外部162之形狀包含圓形,方形,四邊形或多邊形。當內部161與外部162之形狀為圓形時,內部161與外部162係為一同心圓。Figures 1 and 2 show a
如第2圖所示,發光疊層13的第二型半導體層133具有一側壁1331及一上表面。上表面具有一第一區1332及一第二區1333。第二區1333係由形成於第一區1332上之外部162所定義,使得第一區1332圍繞第二區1333,具體來說,第一區1332上的外部162圍繞第二區1333。內部161位於部份第二區1333上,且內部161未完全覆蓋第二區1333而裸露出部份第二型半導體層133,使得來自於主動層132的光線藉此裸露的部份射出於發光元件100之外。未被內部161覆蓋的第二區1333表面可藉由蝕刻,例如乾蝕刻或溼蝕刻,進行粗化以改善出光效率。吸光層18包含圍繞側壁1331的一第一部份181,及位於發光疊層13上表面的第一區1332上的一第二部份182。具體而言,絕緣層19及外部162形成並覆蓋於第二型半導體層133上表面的第一區1332上,吸光層18的第二部份182形成並覆蓋於絕緣層19及外部162上。此外,絕緣層19覆蓋於發光疊層13之側壁1331上,第一部份181覆蓋於絕緣層19之側壁上。如第2圖所示,由於歐姆接觸層15僅形成於內部161與發光疊層13之間,來自於內部161下方之主動層132(亦即第二區)的光線會有第一數量(亦即超過90%)透過第二區1333直接射出於發光元件100之外,第二數量(亦即少於10%)則射向吸光層18而被吸光層18吸收。於一實施例中,超過50%第二數量的光線會被吸光層18所吸收。此外,來自於主動層132的光線不會藉由第一區1332及側壁1331而射出於發光元件100之外。第二區1333之面積與發光疊層13上表面之面積的比例介於10%~90%之間,亦即發光面積定義為發光疊層13面積的10%~90%。吸光層18包含單層或複數層,並具有一厚度大於300 Å。吸光層18之材料包含鈦(Ti),鉻(Cr),鎳(Ni),或上述之組合。第一電極16包含金屬或金屬合金。金屬包含銅(Cu),鋁(Al),金(Au),鑭(La),或銀(Ag)。金屬合金包含鍺金(GeAu),鈹金(BeAu),鉻金(CrAu),銀鈦(AgTi),銅錫(CuSn),銅鋅(CuZn),銅鎘(CuCd),錫鉛銻(Sn-Pb-Sb),錫鉛鋅(Sn-Pb-Zn),鎳錫(NiSn),或鎳鈷(NiCo)。吸光層18可做為一焊墊(pad),藉由一引線鍵合(wire bond)與一外部結構(圖未示),例如封裝基板,於一電流操作下形成電連接。As shown in FIG. 2, the second-
於本實施例中,反射層12被包覆於接合層11 中之位置對應於發光疊層13上表面的第二區1333之位置。當來自於主動層132的光線射向基板10時,光線可被反射層12反射並朝向第二型半導體層133。由於部份光線僅經由第二型半導體層133上表面的第二區1333而射出,反射層12之面積大致與第二型半導體層133上表面的第二區1333之面積相同。於另一實施例中,反射層12之面積可大於第二型半導體層133上表面的第二區1333之面積。In this embodiment, the position where the
第3圖及第4圖係本發明第二實施例的一發光元件200。第3圖係發光元件200的上視圖。第4圖係發光元件200沿著BB′的剖面圖。發光元件200之結構與第一實施例中發光元件100之結構類似,除了發光元件200之內部161有兩個次內部1611,1612。複數個第一延伸部1631電連接兩個次內部1611,1612與外部162。兩個次內部1611,1612中之任一個藉由複數個第二延伸部1632與外部162電連接。第一延伸部1631與第二延伸部1632係交錯排列。外部162包含複數個凸部164。在此藉由外部162及凸部164定義第二區1333,其中來自於主動層132之光線僅會經由第二區1333射出於發光元件200。如第4圖所示,歐姆接觸層15位於兩個次內部1611,1612與發光疊層13之間以提供歐姆接觸。歐姆接觸層15之形狀大致與內部161之兩個次內部1611,1612相同。歐姆接觸層15未形成於外部162與發光疊層13之間。於另一實施例中(圖未示),歐姆接觸層15可形成於外部162與發光疊層13之間,歐姆接觸層15之形狀大致與外部162之形狀相同。內部161的兩個次內部1611,1612及外部162之形狀包含圓形,方形,四邊形或多邊形。當內部161的兩個次內部1611,1612及外部162之形狀為圓形時,其互為同心圓。第二區1333之面積與發光疊層13上表面之面積的比例介於10%~90%之間。內部及外部之數量可隨實施方式而調整,來自於主動層132之光線藉由第二區1333射出發光元件外的第二區1333之面積越大,內部162及外部162之數量越多。Figures 3 and 4 show a
第5A圖及第5B圖係本發明第三實施例的一發光元件 300。第5A圖係本發明第三實施例的一發光元件300的上視圖。第5B圖係第5A圖的發光元件300沿著XX′的剖面圖。如第5A圖所示,發光元件300包含一發光區與一電極區大致圍繞發光區,其中發光區大致位於發光元件300之中央,電極區為一吸光區,換言之為一不發光區。發光區於上視圖上的形狀大致為一圓形,但發光區的形狀並不以此為限制,也可以為多邊形,例如三角形或方形。以發光區的形狀為圓形為例,發光區可為直徑介於0.004~0.5 mm之間的圓,較佳為直徑介於0.001~0.2 mm之間的圓。發光元件300之結構與第一實施例中發光元件100之結構類似,除了發光元件300包含一溝渠20,溝渠20將發光元件300之一磊晶結構33分隔為一第一半導體結構22及一第二半導體結構24,其中第一半導體結構22於一上視圖上大致為一圓形,第二半導體結構24圍繞第一半導體結構22。第一半導體結構22及第二半導體結構24具有大致相同之磊晶結構33,彼此之材料組成及堆疊結構實質上相同,其中磊晶結構33包含一第一型半導體層331,第二型半導體層333,及一主動層332位於第一型半導體層331與第二型半導體層333之間。溝渠20將第一半導體結構22之主動層332、第二型半導體層333與第二半導體結構24之主動層332、第二型半導體層333分隔開來,但是第一半導體結構22之第一型半導體層331與第二半導體結構24之第一型半導體層331係相連接。第一半導體結構22於一電流操作下,第一半導體結構22之主動層332可發出一具有一第一主波長之第一光線;第二半導體結構24於一電流操作下,第二半導體結構24之主動層332可發出一具有一第二主波長之第二光線,其中第一主波長與第二主波長係位於相同之波長範圍,或是第一光線之主波長與第二光線之主波長實質上相同,例如第一主波長與第二主波長可為波長介於610 nm及650 nm之間的紅光,波長介於530 nm及570 nm之間的綠光,或是波長介於450 nm及490 nm之間的藍光。Fig. 5A and Fig. 5B show a
為了避免第一半導體結構22之主動層332所發出的第一光線側漏至第二半導體結構24,溝渠20包含一層或多層絕緣層,絕緣層之絕緣材料可吸收第一光線或可反射第一光線。絕緣材料包含有機高分子材料或是無機材料。In order to prevent the first light emitted from the
發光元件300之一反射層12覆蓋於第一半導體結構22上之部份與覆蓋於第二半導體結構24上之部份係相連,其中於發光元件300之一俯視圖下,反射層12之位置以對應於出光區位置之方式配置且反射層12之面積可與出光區之面積相同或大於出光區之面積。當來自於主動層332的第一光線及/或第二光線射向基板10時,第一光線及/或第二光線可被反射層12反射並朝向第二型半導體層333,於靠近第二型半導體層333之一側出光,具體而言,第一光線及第二光線實質上全部自發光元件300之一頂面33S發出。於一實施例中,頂面33S可藉由蝕刻或壓印等方式形成一粗化面,以改善發光元件300之出光效率。The portion of the

如第5A圖所示,發光元件300包含一第一連接電極223連接第一延伸電極221及第一外電極結構28;以及一第二連接電極243連接第二延伸電極241及第二外電極結構38。As shown in FIG. 5A, the light-emitting
發光元件300可選擇性地包含一歐姆接觸層位於延伸電極,例如第一延伸電極221、第二延伸電極241,與磊晶結構33之間。如第5B圖所示,發光元件300包含一第一歐姆接觸層222位於第一延伸電極221與第二型半導體層333之間;以及一第二歐姆接觸層242位於第二延伸電極241與第二型半導體層333之間。於另一實施例中,發光元件300可包含一歐姆接觸層362位於第一外電極結構28之導電層281與第二導電型半導體層333之間,及/或位於第二外電極結構38之導電層281與第二型半導體層333之間。歐姆接觸層222,242之形狀大致與延伸電極相同。藉由歐姆接觸層222,242,362,可降低延伸電極與第二型半導體層333之間的接觸電阻,和導電層281與第二型半導體層333之間的接觸電阻。The
