Disclosed is a semiconductor light emitting device. The semiconductor light emitting device includes an n-type semiconductor layer, a p-type semiconductor layer, and an active layer disposed therebetween, and a surface plasmon layer disposed between the active layer and at least one of the n-type and p-type semiconductor layers, including metallic particles and an insulating material, and including a conductive via for electrical connection between the active layer and the at least one of the n-type and p-type semiconductor layers, wherein the metallic particles are enclosed by the insulating material to be insulated from the at least one of the n-type and p-type semiconductor layers. The semiconductor light emitting device can achieve enhanced emission efficiency by using surface plasmon resonance. Using the semiconductor light emitting device, the diffusion of a metal employed for surface plasmon resonance into the active layer can be minimized.
