A device of a light-emitting diode and a method for fabricating the same are provided. The LED device is made by forming a patterned epitaxial layer, a light-emitting structure, etc., on a substrate. In a subsequent process, the patterned epitaxial layer serves as a weakened structure, and can be automatically broken and a rough surface is thus formed. The weakened structure is formed with a specified height, and has pillar structures. The light-emitting structure is formed on the weakened structure. During a cooling process at room temperature, the weakened structure is automatically broken and a rough surface is thus formed.
