<p>A compound semiconductor light emitting element is provided with a substrate which is provided on a side of one electrode; a plurality of columnar crystal structures of nanometer scale extending in a vertical direction on the substrate; and another electrode which interconnects top portions of the plurality of columnar crystal structures. On the substrate are provided a first region, and a second region having a step between the first region and the second region and having a substrate thickness greater than that in the first region; a porous first mask layer is formed on the surface of the first region on the substrate; and the plurality of columnar crystal structures are formed by sequentially layering an n-type semiconductor layer, a light emitting layer, and a p-type semiconductor layer, in the first and second regions on the substrate.</p> |
