A light emitting diode includes a substrate, a first semiconductor layer, an active layer, a second semiconductor layer, a first electrode, a second electrode, a static electrode and a carbon nanotube structure. The first semiconductor layer, the active layer, and the second semiconductor layer are stacked on the substrate. The first electrode is located on and electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer. The carbon nanotube structure is located on and electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer. The second electrode is located on and electrically connected to the carbon nanotube structure. The static electrode is located between the second semiconductor layer and the carbon nanotube structure. The carbon nanotube structure includes a first portion in direct contact with the second semiconductor layer and a second portion sandwiched between the static electrode and the second electrode.
