According to one embodiment, a semiconductor light emitting device includes an n-type semiconductor layer, a p-type semiconductor layer, a light emitting part, and a p-side electrode. The light emitting part is provided between the n-type and the p-type semiconductor layers, and includes a plurality of barrier layers and a plurality of well layers. The p-side electrode contacts the p-type semiconductor layer. The p-type semiconductor layer includes first, second, third, and fourth p-type layers. The first p-type layer contacts the p-side electrode. The second p-type layer contacts the light emitting part. The third p-type layer is provided between the first p-type layer and the second p-type layer. The fourth p-type layer is provided between the second p-type layer and the third p-type layer. The second p-type layer contains Al and contains a p-type impurity in a lower concentration lower than that in the first concentration. |
