Zusammenfassung:A metal stack of layers contacting an N-type layer of a light emitting diode (LED) device comprises: an ohmic contact layer electrically contacting the N-type layer and having a work function value that is less than or equal to a work function value of the N-type layer; a reflective layer electrically contacting the ohmic contact layer; a first material barrier layer electrically contacting the reflective layer; a current carrying layer electrically contacting the first material barrier layer; and a second material barrier layer electrically contacting the current carrying layer. LED devices incorporate the metal stack of layer as a bonding material and/or as an ohmic contact-reflective material. Methods of making and using the metal stacks and LED devices are also provided.
