| 摘要 |
A gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor light-emitting device which has a highly reflective positive electrode that has high reverse voltage and excellent reliability with low contact resistance to the p-type gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer. The reflective positive electrode for a semiconductor light-emitting device comprises a contact metal layer adjoining a p-type semiconductor layer, and a reflective layer on the contact metal layer, wherein the contact metal layer is formed of a platinum group metal or an alloy containing a platinum group metal, and the reflective layer is formed of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Ag, Al, and alloys containing at least one of Ag and Al. Also disclosed is a production method of the reflective positive electrode. |
