Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for making a LED comprises following steps. A substrate having a first surface and a second surface is provided. A patterned mask layer is applied on a first surface. A number of three-dimensional nano-structures are formed on the first surface and the patterned mask layer is removed. A first semiconductor layer, an active layer and a second semiconductor layer are formed on the second surface. A first electrode and a second electrode are formed to electrically connect with the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor pre-layer respectively.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for making a light emitting diode, comprising steps of: providing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface; applying a patterned mask layer on the first surface, wherein the patterned mask layer comprises a plurality of linear walls aligned side by side, and a groove is defined between each adjacent linear walls to form an exposed portion of the first surface; etching the exposed portion and removing the patterned mask layer to fo…
