LED sapphire substrate with groups of three projections on the surface
First Claim
1. A sapphire substrate having a principle surface for growing a nitride semiconductor to form a nitride semiconductor light emitting device, the sapphire substrate comprising:
- a plurality of groupings of projections, each grouping including exactly three sub-groupings, each sub-grouping being discontinuous from each other sub-grouping, the plurality of sub-groupings including;
a first sub-grouping on a first side of the grouping, the first sub-grouping comprising a first projection,a second sub-grouping on a second side of the grouping, the second sub-grouping comprising a second projection, anda third sub-grouping on a third side of the grouping, the third sub-grouping comprising a third projection,wherein each of the first, second, and third projections has a width, and a length that is greater than the width,wherein the first projection extends lengthwise in a first direction,wherein the second projection extends lengthwise in a second direction that is different from the first direction, andwherein the third projection extends lengthwise in a third direction that is different from the first and second directions.

Abstract
The sapphire substrate has a principal surface for growing a nitride semiconductor to form a nitride semiconductor light emitting device and comprising a plurality of projections of the principal surface, wherein an outer periphery of a bottom surface of each of the projections has at least one depression. This depression is in the horizontal direction. The plurality of projections are arranged so that a straight line passes through the inside of at least any one of projections when the straight line is drawn at any position in any direction in a plane including the bottom surfaces of the plurality of projections.
