AC light emitting diode

摘要

Disclosed is a light emitting diode (LED) operated by being directly connected to an AC power source. An AC LED according to the present invention comprises a plurality of light emitting cells two-dimensionally arranged on a single substrate; and wires electrically connecting the light emitting cells; wherein the light emitting cells are connected in series by the wires to form a serial array, the single substrate is a non-polar substrate, and the light emitting cells have non-polar GaN-based semiconductor layers grown on the non-polar substrate.
