One embodiment of fabricating a p-down light emitting diode (LED) structure comprises depositing a high crystal quality p type contact layer, depositing an active region on top of the p type contact layer, and depositing an n type contact layer on top of the active region using a hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) process. The high crystal quality p type contact layer is deposited at high temperature to ensure the high crystal quality of the p type film. The n type contact layer is formed on top of the active region in a HVPE chamber at a low temperature to prevent thermal damage to the quantum wells in the active region below the n type contact layer. The processing chamber used to form the p type contact layer is a separate processing chamber than the processing chamber used to form the n type contact layer.
