In this paper, we present the optical and electrical properties of surface-patterned GaAs-based Multiquantum Well (MQW) light emitting diodes (LEDs) with one- and two-dimensional photonic crystal (PhC) structures. Optical properties were analyzed in the near and far field, measured by a near-field scanning optical microscope and with a goniophotometer. We demonstrated a strong effect of patterned PhC on the radiation properties and the light extraction efficiency. Enormous surface emission enhancement reaching 110% confirmed the strong effect of the patterned structure on the coupling of the guided modes into the surface emission. Additionally, the considerable effect of the PhC structure diffraction on radiation pattern was confirmed in the near and far field and is in good agreement with the simulated shape of the optical field.
