Abstract

A light emitting device according to the embodiment includes a reflecting layer; an adhesion layer including an oxide-based material on the reflecting layer; an ohmic contact layer on the adhesion layer; and a light emitting structure layer on the ohmic contact layer.

Claims (14)

1. A light emitting device comprising:

a conductive supporting substrate;

a reflecting layer on the conductive supporting substrate;

an adhesion layer including an oxide-based material on the reflecting layer;

a protective layer on a periphery of the adhesion layer;

an ohmic contact layer on the adhesion layer; and

a light emitting structure layer on the ohmic contact layer,

wherein at least a portion of the protective layer is disposed between the adhesion layer and the light emitting structure, and the oxide-based material of the adhesion layer contacts the protective layer.

2. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the adhesion layer includes AZO (Al—ZnO) or IZO (In—ZnO).

3. The light emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising a seed layer for plating between the conductive supporting substrate and the reflecting layer.

4. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein a lateral surface of the ohmic contact layer is surrounded by the protective layer.

5. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the protective layer includes at least one of SiO 2 , Si 3 N 4 , ITO, TiO 2 , AZO, and IZO.

6. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the reflecting layer includes at least one of Ag, Al, Ag—Pd—Cu, and Ag—Cu.

7. The light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the protective layer is a conductive protective layer.
