SEMICONDUCTOR LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICE WITH NEAR-FIELD SURFACE-LATTICE-RESONANCE REFLECTOR
A light-emitting device includes a semiconductor diode structure, a surface-lattice-mode (SLR) structure against the back of the diode structure, and a reflector against the back of the SLR structure. The diode structure includes first and second doped semiconductor layers and an active layer between them; the active layer emits output light at a nominal emission vacuum wavelength λ.sub.0 to propagate within the diode structure. The SLR structure includes an index-matched layer, a lower-index layer, and scattering elements, and is in near-field proximity to the active layer relative to λ.sub.0. At least a portion of the output light, propagating perpendicularly within the diode structure relative to a device exit surface, exits the diode structure as device output light. The scattering elements redirect output light propagating within the device, including in laterally propagating surface-lattice-resonance modes supported by the SLR structure, to propagate perpendicularly toward the device exit surface.
TRANSFER PROCESS TO REALIZE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES
A method of fabricating and transferring high quality and manufacturable light-emitting devices, such as micro-sized light-emitting diodes (μLEDs), edge-emitting lasers and vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs), using epitaxial later over-growth (ELO) and isolation methods. III-nitride semiconductor layers are grown on a host substrate using a growth restrict mask, and the III-nitride semiconductor layers on wings of the ELO are then made into the light-emitting devices. The devices are isolated from the host substrate to a thickness equivalent to the growth restrict mask and then transferred or lifted from of the host substrate. Back-end processing of the devices is then performed, such as attaching distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) mirrors, forming cladding layers, and/or adding heatsinks.
