Abstract

In a vertical topology light emitting device, an adhesion layer or adhesion structure is provided between one of the electrodes and the metal contact pad associated with that electrode. The vertical topology light emitting device further comprises a support layer, a reflective structure, which also serves as the other electrode, over the support layer, and a semiconductor device including an n-type GaN-based layer, an active layer and a p-type GaN-based layer. In certain embodiments, the adhesion layer, or adhesion structure, may comprise two layers, for example, a Cr layer and an Au layer. In other embodiments, the vertical topology device may comprise an adhesion layer, or structure, between the reflective structure and the support structure.
