Abstract

A light-emitting device includes a semiconductor light-emitting stack; a current injected portion formed on the semiconductor light-emitting stack; an extension portion having a first branch radiating from the current injected portion and having a first width, and a first length greater than the first width, and a second branch extending from the first branch and having a second width larger than the first width, and a second length greater than the second width; and an electrical contact structure between the second branch and the semiconductor light-emitting stack.

Claims (27)

1. A light-emitting device comprising:

a semiconductor light-emitting stack;

a current injected portion formed on the semiconductor light-emitting stack;

an extension portion having a first branch radiating from the current injected portion and having a first width, and a first length greater than the first width, and a second branch extending from the first branch and having a second width larger than the first width, and a second length greater than the second width; and

an electrical contact structure between the second branch and the semiconductor light-emitting stack.

2. A light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the extension portion further comprises a third branch substantially parallel to the second branch.

3. A light-emitting device of claim 2 , wherein a length of the third branch is longer than that of the second branch.

4. A light-emitting device of claim 2 , wherein the second branch is closer to the current injected portion than the third branch is.

5. A light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the electrical contact structure comprises a third width smaller than the second width.

6. A light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the electrical contact structure and the second branch substantially have the same shape.

7. A light-emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a substrate;

an adhesive layer; and

a reflective layer;

wherein the adhesive layer and the reflective layer are sandwiched by the semiconductor light-emitting stack and the substrate.

8. A light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor light-emitting stack comprises a roughened surface.

9. A light-emitting device comprising:

a semiconductor light-emitting stack;

a current injected portion formed on the semiconductor light-emitting stack;

electrical contact structures being separated from the current injected portion, and comprising a first area and a second area separated from and larger than the first area; and

an extension portion being current-blocked with the semiconductor light-emitting stack except portions covering the electrical contact structures.

10. A light-emitting device of claim 9 , wherein the extension portion has a first branch radiating from the current injected portion, a second branch covering the first area, and a third branch covering the second area.

11. A light-emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the second branch is substantially parallel to the third branch.

12. A light-emitting device of claim 9 , wherein the second area is closer to the current injected portion than the first area is.

13. A light-emitting device of claim 9 , wherein electrical contact structures further comprises a third area separated from and larger than the first area.

14. A light-emitting device of claim 13 , wherein the extension portion has a forth branch covering the third area.

15. A light-emitting device of claim 13 , wherein the second area is between the first area and the third area.
