英文摘要： Despite the achievement of nitride based light emitting diodes(LEDs) that led to the realization of commercial productions, there are still severe limitations such as poor quantum efficiency and dramatic efficiency droop, for which the polarization field, dislocations, electron leakage and Auger recombination are considered as the major reasons. Progresses in low-dimensional micro- or nano-structure LEDs for overcoming the limitations have been steadily developed. However, a large number of threading dislocations (TDs) were still presented in micro-size LEDs, and material damages caused by dry etching processes are not negligible. On the other hand, nitride-based vertical-injection LEDs (VLEDs), of which the insulated sapphire substrates are removed to transfer the epilayer to a new thermal and electrical conductive substrates, have been considered as a promising candidate for high power applications. VLEDs provide many advantages, such as better current injection, excellent heat dissipation and enhanced reliability. In this study, hexagonal pyramids array micro vertical light emitting diodes (HP VLEDs) based on laser lift-off and N-polar wet etching were proposed. And graphene was first adopted in HP VLEDs as transparent conductive layer. The eliminating of TDs in hexagonal pyramids was realized by wet etch
