The light output power of AlGaInP-based vertical-injection light-emitting diodes (VI-LEDs) can be enhanced significantly using n-AlGaInP nanopillars. n-AlGaInP nanopillars,~200 nm in diameter, were produced using SiO 2 nanopillars as an etching mask, which were fabricated from self-assembled tin-doped indium oxide (ITO)-based nanodots formed by the wet etching of as-deposited ITO films. The AlGaInP-based VI-LEDs with the n-AlGaInP nanopillars provided 25 % light output power enhancement compared to VI-LEDs with a surface-roughened n-AlGaInP because of the reduced total internal reflection by the nanopillars at the n-AlGaInP/air interface with a large refractive index difference of 1.9.
