Semiconductor light emitting device and manufacturing method of the same

摘要

The semiconductor light emitting device according to an embodiment includes an N-type nitride semiconductor layer, a nitride semiconductor active layer disposed on the N-type nitride semiconductor layer, and a P-type nitride semiconductor layer disposed on the active layer. The P-type nitride semiconductor layer includes an aluminum gallium nitride layer. The indium concentration in the aluminum gallium nitride layer is between 1E18 atoms/cm3 and 1E20 atoms/cm3 inclusive. The carbon concentration is equal to or less than 6E17 atoms/cm3. Where the magnesium concentration is denoted by X and the acceptor concentration is denoted by Y, Y>{(−5.35e19)2−(X−2.70e19)2}1/2−4.63e19 holds.
