Method of manufacturing semiconductor light emitting device
View Patent ↗Provided is a method of manufacturing semiconductor light emitting devices including: forming light emitting structures by sequentially depositing a first material layer, an active layer and a second material layer; forming the roughness pattern on a region of the bottom of a substrate except at least a cleaving region for forming cleaving planes; and forming n-electrodes.
1. A method of manufacturing semiconductor light emitting devices comprising:
forming a plurality of light emitting structures by sequentially depositing a first material layer, an active layer and a second material layer and forming a plurality of ridges in the second material layer to form trenches between each of the plurality of ridges;
forming a first p-electrode on each of the plurality of ridges; and
forming second p-electrodes on the plurality of light emitting structures and the first p-electrode to define a cleaving region between each of the second p-electrodes.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein forming the second p-electrodes on each light emitting structure includes forming the second p-electrodes to define a separating region that is orthogonal to the cleaving region, and the separating region extends along each of the trenches between each of the second p-electrodes.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the substrate is one of a GaN substrate, a SiC substrate and a sapphire substrate.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein each of the second p-electrodes extends into each of the trenches to define the separating region.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
forming a current limiting layer before forming the second electrodes, the current limiting layer being formed in the trenches and on side surfaces of the ridges.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein each of the second p-electrodes is formed on the current limiting layer.
