Disclosed is a light-emitting diode with a semiconductor layer including dielectric material layer, and a manufacturing method thereof for increasing the external quantum efficiency. The semiconductor layer includes a non-flat structure having a plurality of recess regions, and at least one dielectric material layer disposed within each recess region, the dielectric material layer has a generally inverted pyramid shape or a ball shape, and a portion of the non-flat structure is exposed outside the dielectric material layer. Photons emitted from the active layer are scattered by the dielectric material layer as photon scattering structure, and are guided by the inclined internal side faces of the recess regions so that the probability of photons escaping from the light-emitting diode is increased, and thus total internal reflection is reduced, thereby increasing the extraction efficiency and hence the external quantum efficiency.
