Abstract

A light emitting device including a protection layer including a first area and a second area having a greater thickness than the first area, a light emitting stacked structure including a plurality of semiconductor layers sequentially disposed one over another along a first direction on the first area of the protection layer, a plurality of via patterns electrically connected to the light emitting stacked structure and having a length along the first direction, and a plurality of pads electrically connected to the light emitting stacked structure through the via patterns, respectively, in which the second area of the protection layer does not overlap the light emitting stacked structure, and at least portion of the pads overlaps the second area of the protection layer and one of the via patterns.

Claims (44)

1. A light emitting device comprising:

a protection layer including a first area and a second area;

a light emitter including a plurality of semiconductor layers sequentially disposed one over another along a first direction on the first area of the protection layer;

a light shield including a first portion disposed at a side of the light emitter and a second portion disposed above the light emitter;

a plurality of via patterns electrically connected to the light emitter and having a length along the first direction; and

a plurality of pads electrically connected to the light emitter through the via patterns, respectively,

wherein the second area of the protection layer does not overlap the light emitter,

wherein at least a portion of the pads overlaps one of the via patterns, and

wherein a light is emitted to an outside through a window having a smaller width than a width of the light emitter in a cross sectional view.

2. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter includes a plurality of light emitting parts, each including a set of the plurality of semiconductor layers and configured to emit light having a different peak wavelength.

3. The light emitting device of claim 2 , wherein the light emitting parts are disposed one over another along the first direction.

4. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the second area of the protection layer surrounds the light emitter.

5. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter is configured to emit light towards the first area of the protection layer.

6. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the protection layer includes a light transmissive material.

7. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the via patterns have substantially a same length.

8. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the protection layer is spaced apart from the via patterns.

9. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the via patterns have a varying width along the first direction.

10. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein at least one or more of the via patterns does not overlap two or more of the semiconductor layers.

11. A light emitting device comprising:

a protection layer including a first area and a second area;

a light emitter including a plurality semiconductor layers sequentially disposed one over another along a first direction on the first area of the protection layer;

a light shield including a first portion disposed at a side of the light emitter and a second portion disposed above the light emitter;

a plurality of conductive patterns electrically connected to the light emitter and having a length along the first direction; and

a plurality of pads electrically connected to the light emitter through the conductive patterns, respectively,

wherein the second area of the protection layer does not overlap the light emitter,

wherein at least a portion of the pads overlaps one of the conductive patterns, and

wherein a light is emitted to an outside through a window having a smaller width than a width of the light emitter in a cross sectional view.

12. The light emitting device of claim 11 , wherein the second area of the protection layer surrounds the light emitter.

13. The light emitting device of claim 11 , wherein the light emitter is configured to emit light towards the first area of the protection layer.

14. The light emitting device of claim 11 , wherein the conductive patterns have substantially a same length.

15. The light emitting device of claim 11 , wherein the protection layer is spaced apart from the conductive patterns.

16. A display apparatus comprising:

a protection layer including a first area and a second area;

a light emitter including a plurality of semiconductor layers sequentially disposed one over another along a first direction on the first area of the protection layer;

a light shield including a first portion disposed at a side of the light emitter and a second portion disposed above the light emitter;

a plurality of conductive patterns electrically connected to the light emitter and comprising a same material as each other; and

a plurality of pads electrically connected to the light emitter through the conductive patterns, respectively,

wherein the second area of the protection layer does not overlap the light emitter,

wherein at least a portion of the pads overlaps one of the conductive patterns, and

wherein a light is emitted to an outside through a window having a smaller width than a width of the light emitter in a cross sectional view.

17. The display apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the second area of the protection layer surrounds the light emitter.

18. The display apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the light emitter is configured to emit light towards the first area of the protection layer.

19. The display apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the conductive patterns have substantially a same length.

20. The display apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the protection layer is spaced apart from the conductive patterns.
