Provided are a nitride-based light emitting device using a p-type conductive transparent thin film electrode layer and a method of manufacturing the same. The nitride-based light emitting device includes a substrate, and an n-cladding layer, an active layer, a p-cladding layer and an ohmic contact layer sequentially formed on the substrate. The ohmic contact layer is made from a p-type conductive transparent oxide thin film. The nitride-based light emitting device and method of manufacturing the same provide excellent I-V characteristics by improving characteristics of an ohmic contact to a p-cladding layer while enhancing light emission efficiency of the device due to high light transmittance exhibited by a transparent electrode. |
