Abstract
Embodiments are related to systems and methods for forming and using a top-contact disk.
Claims31
A top-contact light emitting diode (LED), the LED comprising:
- a lower disk having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the lower disk is formed of a first material selected from a group consisting of:
- a p-doped material, and an n-doped material;
- a multiple quantum well (MQW) having a third surface and a fourth surface, and wherein the fourth surface of the MQW is adjacent the first surface of the lower disk;
- an upper disk having a fifth surface exhibiting and a sixth surface, wherein the fifth surface is opposite the sixth surface, wherein the sixth surface of the upper disk is adjacent the third surface of the MQW, wherein the upper disk is formed of a second material selected from a group consisting of:
- a p-doped material, and an n-doped material;
- wherein the second material is doped opposite the first material;
- and
- an electrical insulator formed above a first region of the fifth surface of the upper disk, but is not formed above a second region of the fifth surface of the upper disk, wherein the second region includes an area extending to an outer edge of the fifth surface.
