Abstract :
Geometrical shaping of InGaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by laser micromachining is introduced. The sapphire substrate is shaped with inclined sidewalls at 50deg, serving as a prism favoring light redirection for out-coupling from the top window. Compared to conventional cuboid LEDs with a calculated light extraction efficiency etaext of 18.3%, these shaped LEDs offers a pronounced increase in etaext of up to 85.2%, verified by experimental results.
