LIGHT EMITTING DEVICE HAVING LIGHT EMITTING ELEMENTS
First Claim
1. A light emitting device, comprising:
- a single insulating substrate;
a first array of GaN-based light emitting elements on the single insulating substrate, the first array of light emitting elements comprising a first set of light emitting elements and a second set of light emitting elements, each set comprising at least one light emitting element,wherein the light emitting elements of the first array are connected in series with each other between a first electrode pad and a second electrode pad, and the first set of light emitting elements and the second set of light emitting elements are disposed facing opposite directions from each other.

Abstract
A light-emitting device operating on a high drive voltage and a small drive current. LEDs (1) are two-dimensionally formed on an insulating substrate (10) of e.g., sapphire monolithically and connected in series to form an LED array. Two such LED arrays are connected to electrodes (32) in inverse parallel. Air-bridge wiring (28) is formed between the LEDs (1) and between the LEDs (1) and electrodes (32). The LED arrays are arranged zigzag to form a plurality of LEDs (1) to produce a high drive voltage and a small drive current. Two LED arrays are connected in inverse parallel, and therefore an AC power supply can be used as the power supply.
