When a plurality of semiconductor layers including a nitride compound layer containing indium are stacked on a substrate, materials of layers above the indium containing nitride compound layer are limited to specific compounds, or their growth temperatures are limited within a predetermined range, to suppress thermal deterioration of the nitride compound layer containing indium or deterioration of the interface and to thereby grow a high-quality semiconductor light emitting element using nitride compound semiconductors. When manufacturing a nitride compound semiconductor light emitting element having a first layer made of a first nitride compound semiconductor containing indium and a second layer stacked on the first layer, conditions for stacking the second layer are selected those inside a closed region defined by connecting points plotted at x and y coordinates (364, 600), (364, 1010), (550, 1010), (650, 600) and (364, 600) on a graph taking emission wavelengths based on band-to-band transition of the first layer in nanometer on the x axis and taking growth temperatures of the second layer in ° C. on the y axis. Thus, a high-performance light emitting element can be made without inviting thermal deterioration of the first layer.
