Semiconductor light emitting device and image forming apparatus

摘要

A semiconductor light emitting device includes laminated semiconductor light emitting elements. A first semiconductor light emitting element is provided on a mounting substrate via a reflection metal layer, and is configured to emit light of first wavelength. A first light-transmissive planarization insulating film is provided covering the first semiconductor light emitting element, and is configured to transmit the light of the first wavelength. A second semiconductor light emitting element is provided on the first semiconductor light emitting element via the first light-transmissive planarization insulating film. The second semiconductor light emitting element is configured to transmit the light of the first wavelength and to emit light of second wavelength. The second semiconductor light emitting element includes a first semiconductor multilayer reflection film facing the first semiconductor light emitting element, which is configured, to transmit the light of the first wavelength and to reflect the light of the second wavelength.
