Abstract

A light emitting device includes a first substrate, a second substrate and a plurality of micro epitaxial structures. The second substrate is disposed opposite to the first substrate. The micro epitaxial structures are periodically disposed on the substrate and located between the first substrate and the second substrate. A coefficient of thermal expansion of the first substrate is CTE1, a coefficient of thermal expansion of the second substrate is CTE2, a side length of each of the micro epitaxial structures is W, W is in the range between 1 micrometer and 100 micrometers, and a pitch of any two adjacent micro epitaxial structures is P, wherein W/P=0.1 to 0.95, and CTE2/CTE1=0.8 to 1.2.
