Abstract

A light-emitting element, comprises: a substrate; a light-emitting stack formed on the substrate, comprising a first semiconductor layer having a first surface facing the substrate, a second semiconductor layer having a second surface opposite the first surface, and an active layer between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer; an insulating adhesive layer formed between the light-emitting stack and the substrate; and an inductive coil embedded in the insulating adhesive layer, comprising a first end electrically connecting the first semiconductor layer, and a second end electrically connecting the second semiconductor layer.

Claims (11)

1. A light-emitting module, comprising:

a submount;

a light-emitting element formed on the submount, comprising a first semiconductor layer having a first surface facing the submount, a second semiconductor layer having a second surface facing the submount, and an active layer between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer;

a first electrode formed between the submount and the first semiconductor layer; a second electrode formed between the submount and the second semiconductor layer; and an inductive coil embedded in the submount, comprising a first end electrically connecting the first electrode, and a second end electrically connecting the second electrode.

2. The light-emitting module according to claim 1 , wherein the submount comprises an upper surface disposing a first contact connecting the first electrode and a second contact connecting the second electrode thereon, and the first end electrically connects the first electrode via the first contact, and the second end electrically connects the second electrode via the second contact.

3. The light-emitting module according to claim 2 , further comprising a first connecting portion connecting between the first end and the first contact and a second connecting portion connecting between the second end and the second contact in the submount.

4. The light-emitting module according to claim 1 , wherein the second surface is farther away the submount than the first surface, and a portion of the first semiconductor layer and the active layer are removed to expose the second surface.

5. The light-emitting module according to claim 4 , wherein the light-emitting element further comprises a current spreading layer formed on the first surface and a reflective metal layer on the current spreading layer.

6. The light-emitting module according to claim 1 , further comprising an encapsulating member on the submount and covering the light-emitting stack.

7. The light-emitting module according to claim 6 , wherein the encapsulating member comprises water-proof material, and a wavelength-converting material or photo catalyst is formed between the encapsulating member and the light-emitting element.

8. The light-emitting module according to claim 7 , wherein the material of the inductive coil comprises a conductive metal or a metal having high magnetic susceptibility, a material of the conductive metal comprises Au, Al, Cu, Ag, or Ti, and a material of the metal having high magnetic susceptibility comprises Fe, Ni or Co.
