COMPOUND SEMICONDUCTOR LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATION THEREOF

摘要

A compound semiconductor light-emitting diode includes a light-emitting layer (133) formed of aluminum-gallium-indium phosphide, a light-emitting part (13) having component layers individually formed of a Group III-V compound semiconductor, a transparent supporting layer (14) bonded to one of the outermost surface layers (135) of the light-emitting part (13) and transparent to the light emitted from the light-emitting layer (133), and a bonding layer (141) formed between the supporting layer (14) and the one of the outermost surface layers (135) of the light-emitting part (13) containing oxygen atoms at a concentration of 1×1020 cm−3 or less.
