LIGHT EMITTING DIODE ARRAY

摘要

PURPOSE:To provide a light emitting diode array of high resolution by making luminance characteristic in an alignment direction of a light emitting region uniform. CONSTITUTION:A plurality of light emitting regions 4 are formed on a surface of a compound semiconductor 1 and an insulation layer 2 is formed on a surface of the compound semiconductor 1 to expose the light emitting region 4. The light emitting region 4 is divided into about two and a surface electrode 5 is formed close to a center of the light emitting region 4 in a stripe with one end in ohmic contact and the other end positioned on the insulation layer 2. A stripe electrode 8 having approximately the same width as the front electrode 5 on the light emitting region 4 is formed on the insulation layer 2 between adjacent light emitting regions 4.
