Abstract
A transparent conductive oxide contact layer to enhance the spectral output of a light emitting device and a methodology for its deposition. The transparent conductive oxide deposited on the light emitting device so as to have a columnar structure. The transparent conductive oxide contact layer may be preferably ZnO doped with a conductive element. Light emitting phosphors may also be deposited within the transparent conductive oxide contact layer.
