Abstract
The invention relates to various aspects of a μ-LED or a μ-LED array for augmented reality or lighting applications, in particular in the automotive field. The μ-LED is characterized by particularly small dimensions in the range of a few μm.
Claims11
A μ-LED array with two adjacent light emitting devices arranged adjacent to each other and separated by a space in between, wherein each light emitting device comprises:
- an n-doped layer;
- a p-doped layer;
- an active layer forming partly an active region, the active region located in between the n-doped layer and the p-doped layer;
- a first insulating layer covering at least a side edge of the n-doped layer;
- and
- a second insulating layer covering at least a side edge of the p-doped layer,
- wherein the active layer extends across the space between the two adjacent light emitting devices,
- wherein the active layer is covered by two or more cladding layers and forms a material transition layer with a maximum thickness dC along the space between the two adjacent light emitting devices, with the p-doped layer and the n-doped layer not extending along the space, whereby electrical and optical conductivities in the material transition layer are reduced.
