A light emitting diode (LED) is disclosed. The LED includes a substrate, a first semiconductor layer, an active layer, a second semiconductor layer, and a patterned structure. The first semiconductor layer having first and second regions is positioned on the substrate, wherein the first region is thicker than the second region. The active layer is positioned on the first region of the first semiconductor layer. The second semiconductor layer is positioned on the active layer, wherein the first and second semiconductor layers have opposite conductivities. The patterned structure is formed on a sidewall of the first region of the first semiconductor layer or on a sidewall of the second semiconductor layer. |
