Abstract
The present invention relates to nanostructured light emitting diodes, LEDs. The nanostructured LED device according to the invention comprises an array of a plurality of individual nanostructured LEDs. Each of the nanostructured LEDs has an active region wherein light is produced. The nanostructured device further comprise a plurality of reflectors, each associated to one individual nanostructured LED (or a group of nanostructured LEDs. The individual reflectors has a concave surface facing the active region of the respective individual nanostructured LED or active regions of group of nanostructured LEDs.

23. A method of fabricating a nanostructured LED device comprising a plurality of nanostructured LEDs, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) defining growth positions on a substrate by lithography; (b) growing nanostructured LEDs from the substrate on the defined growth positions; and (c) depositing a reflector material at least on top of the grown nanostructured LEDs, thereby forming individual reflectors for each of the nanostructured LEDs. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26)
