Abstract

We investigated the electrical and optical characteristics of GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) fabricated with top-emission and flip-chip structures. Compared with top-emission LEDs, flip-chip LEDs exhibited a 0.25 V smaller forward voltage and an 8.7 Ω lower diode resistance. The light output power of the flip-chip LED was also larger than that of the top-emission LED by factors of 1.72 and 2.0 when measured before and after packaging, respectively. The improved electrical and optical output performances of flip-chip LEDs were quantitatively analyzed in terms of device resistance and ray optics, respectively.
