Abstract

A light-emitting device includes a substrate; a stacked structure including a first type semiconductor layer positioned on the substrate, a light-emitting structure positioned on the first type semiconductor layer, and a second type semiconductor layer positioned on the light-emitting structure, wherein the stacked structure includes a depression exposing the first type semiconductor layer; a first electrode positioned on the first type semiconductor layer in the depression, the first electrode including at least one first pad and at least one first extending wire with one end connected to the first pad; a second electrode positioned on the second type semiconductor layer, the second electrode including at least one second pad and at least one second extending wire with one end connected to the second pad; wherein the distance between the first pad and the second pad is greater than 70% of the width of the light-emitting device.

Claims (19)

1. A light-emitting device, comprising:

a substrate;

a stacked structure comprising a first conductivity type semiconductor layer;

a light-emitting structure on the first conductivity type semiconductor layer;

a depression arranged in the stacked structure and exposing a surface of the first conductivity type semiconductor layer;

a first electrode comprising a first pad;

a first extending wire connected to the first pad;

a second electrode comprising a second pad; and

a second extending wire connected to the second pad and disconnected from the first extending wire, wherein a portion of the first extending wire and a portion of the second extending wire are arranged in the depression and devoid of the stacked structure therebetween, wherein the surface of the first conductivity type semiconductor layer between the portions of the first extending wire and the second extending wire is a continuous surface.

2. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first extending wire is substantially parallel to the second extending wire.

3. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first electrode comprises a first branch between the first pad and the first extending wire.

4. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first extending wire and the second extending wire are not parallel to a border of the light-emitting device.

5. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first extending wire is substantially not parallel to the second extending wire.

6. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the continuous surface is a planar surface.

7. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the continuous surface of the first conductivity type semiconductor layer connects to the portions of the first extending wire and the second extending wire.

8. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first electrode comprises a plurality of first branches connected to the first extending wire.

9. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first electrode and the second electrode are symmetrical.

10. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the second electrode comprises a plurality of second branches.

11. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the depression is arranged at outer edges of the light-emitting device.
