Abstract

An electrode structure of a light emitting device includes a plurality of first electrodes and a plurality of second electrodes. The first electrodes electrically contact with the light emitting device and are separated from one other. The second electrodes electrically contact with the light emitting device and are located at the same side with the first electrodes. The second electrodes are separated from one other, and the second electrodes have at least two different profiles when viewing from atop.

Claims (18)

1. An electrode structure of a light emitting device, comprising:

a plurality of first electrodes electrically connected to the light emitting device, wherein the first electrodes are separated from one another; and

a plurality of second electrodes electrically connected to the light emitting device, the first electrodes and the second electrodes located at a same side, wherein the second electrodes are separated from one another, and the second electrodes have at least two different profiles when viewing from atop, the light emitting device includes a first-type semiconductor layer and a second-type semiconductor layer, wherein all of the first electrodes are connected to the first-type semiconductor layer and all of the second electrodes are connected to the second-type semiconductor layer.

2. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a profile of each of the first electrodes when viewing from atop is in a point shape.

3. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first electrodes are spaced at equidistant intervals and adjacent to a same side of the light emitting device.

4. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a profile of the second electrodes when viewing from atop is a combination of a point shape and a line shape.

5. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the second electrodes which have the profile of the point shape when viewing from atop are defined as a plurality of point-shaped electrodes, and the second electrodes which have the profile of the line shape when viewing from atop are defined as a plurality of line-shaped electrodes.

6. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a top view area of each of the line-shaped electrodes is 5 to 20 times a top view area of each of the point-shaped electrodes.

7. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the line-shaped electrodes are located among the point-shaped electrodes.

8. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the point-shaped electrodes are located among the line-shaped electrodes.

9. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the point-shaped electrodes and the line-shaped electrodes are arranged alternately.

10. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the line-shaped electrodes have an extending direction, and the point-shaped electrodes are arranged in the extending direction of the line-shaped electrodes.

11. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the first electrodes and the second electrodes are disposed correspondingly, and a number of the first electrodes is equal to a number of rows of the point-shaped electrodes and the line-shaped electrodes of the second electrodes which are arranged.

12. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein a distance between any of the two adjacent point-shaped electrodes of the second electrodes is equal to or greater than a distance between any of the two adjacent first electrodes.

13. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a first bonding pad disposed on a side of the light emitting device and electrically connected to the first electrodes; and

a second bonding pad electrically connected to the second electrodes and the second bonding pad and the first bonding pad located at the same side of the light emitting device, wherein the first bonding pad and the second bonding pad are electrically insulated from each other, and edges of the light emitting device are aligned with edges of the first bonding pad and edges of the second bonding pad.

14. The electrode structure of the light emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the first electrodes is a P-type electrode, and each of the second electrodes is an N-type electrode.
