Abstract

See full text

A light emitting diode for generating preferably green light with improved luminous efficiency. A number of epitaxial layers suitable for the light emission is arranged on a doped semiconductor substrate wafer of GaP. The surface of the epitaxial layers is completely frosted. The light emission from the interior is considerably improved by the frosting. A contact layer structure is placed on the frosted surface for contacting the light emitting diode. The contact layer consists of several partial layers and covers at least a part the frosted surface. There is also a contact layer at the rear of the light emitting diode.
