Abstract
The present invention discloses a light-emitting device (LED) with a textured interface formed by utilizing holographic lithography. Two coherent light beams are overlaid to cause constructive and destructive interference and thereby periodical alternative bright and dark lines are formed. A wafer coated with a photoresist material is exposed under the interference lines. After a developing step, a photoresist pattern with textured surface is formed on the wafer. Thereafter, the textured photoresist pattern is transferred to the wafer by etching process and result in a desired light-emitting device with a textured interface.
