Abstract

A method for fabricating a high brightness LED structure is disclosed herein, which comprises at least the following steps. First, a first layered structure is provided by sequentially forming a light generating structure, a non-alloy ohmic contact layer, and a first metallic layer from bottom to top on a side of a first substrate. Then, a second layered structure comprising at least a second substrate is provided. Then, the two-layered structures are wafer-bonded together, with the top side of the second layered structure interfacing with the top side of said first layered structure. The first metallic layer functions as a reflective mirror, which is made of a pure metal or a metal nitride to achieve superior reflectivity, and whose reflective surface does not participate in the wafer-bonding process directly.
