In a semiconductor light emitting element outputting light indicating green color by using a group III nitride semiconductor, light emission output is improved. A semiconductor light emitting element includes: an n-type cladding layer containing n-type impurities (Si); a light emitting layer laminated on the n-type cladding layer; and a p-type cladding layer containing p-type impurities and laminated on the light emitting layer. The light emitting layer has a barrier layer including first to fifth barrier layers and a well layer including first to fourth well layers, and has a multiple quantum well structure to sandwich one well layer by two barrier layers. The light emitting layer is configured such that the first to fourth well layers are set to have a composition to emit green light, and the first barrier layer is doped with n-type impurities, whereas the other barrier layers are not doped with n-type impurities. |
