<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor light-emitting element and a semiconductor light-emitting device having high light extraction efficiency and high reproducibility of light output. <P>SOLUTION: The semiconductor light-emitting element includes: a laminated structure having a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer, and a luminous layer provided between the first and second semiconductor layers; a first electrode that is provided on the first main surface at the side of the second semiconductor layer in the laminated structure and is connected to the first semiconductor layer; and a second electrode that is provided on the first main surface of the laminated structure and is connected to the second semiconductor layer. In the semiconductor light-emitting element, the second electrode includes a first film that is provided on the second semiconductor layer and includes relatively low contact resistance to the second semiconductor layer and a second film that is provided at the periphery of the first film on the second semiconductor layer and includes relatively high contact resistance to the second semiconductor layer, and the distance from the edge outside the second film to the first film is smaller at the center than at the periphery of the first main surface. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
