REFLECTIVE LAYERS FOR LIGHT-EMITTING DIODES

Abstract:

A light-emitting diode (LED) chip with reflective layers having high reflectivity. The LED chip may include an active LED structure including an active layer between an n-type layer and a p-type layer. A first reflective layer is adjacent the active LED structure and comprises a plurality of dielectric layers with varying optical thicknesses. The plurality of dielectric layers may include a plurality of first dielectric layers and a plurality of second dielectric layers of varying thicknesses and compositions. The LED chip may further include a second reflective layer that includes an electrically conductive path through the first reflective layer.
