摘要 |
The present invention provides a Group III nitride semiconductor light-emitting device whose main surface is a plane which provides an internal electric field of zero, and which exhibits improved emission performance. The light-emitting device includes a sapphire substrate which has, in a surface thereof, a plurality of dents which are arranged in a stripe pattern as viewed from above; an n-contact layer formed on the dented surface of the sapphire substrate; a light-emitting layer formed on the n-contact layer; an electron blocking layer formed on the light-emitting layer; a p-contact layer formed on the electron blocking layer; a p-electrode; and an n-electrode. The electron blocking layer has a thickness of 2 to 8 nm and is formed of Mg-doped AlGaN having an Al compositional proportion of 20 to 30%.
