| 摘要 |
An object of the present invention is to provide a GaN-based light emitting diode element having a great emission efficiency and suitable for an excitation light source for a white LED. The GaN-based light emitting diode element includes an n-type conductive m-plane GaN substrate, a light emitting diode structure which is formed of a GaN-based semiconductor, on a front face of the m-plane GaN substrate, and an n-side ohmic electrode formed on a rear face of the m-plane GaN substrate, wherein a forward voltage is 4.0 V or less when a forward current applied to the light emitting diode element is 20 mA. |
