  • Publication number: 20060249736
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nitride semiconductor light emitting device. The nitride semiconductor light emitting device includes an n-type electrode; an n-type nitride semiconductor layer that is formed to come in contact with the n-type electrode; an active layer that is formed on the n-type nitride semiconductor layer; a p-type nitride semiconductor layer that is formed on the active layer; an undoped GaN layer that is formed on the p-type nitride semiconductor layer; an AlGaN layer that is formed on the undoped GaN layer so as to provide a two-dimensional electron gas layer to the interface with the undoped GaN layer; a reflecting layer that is formed on the AlGaN layer; a barrier that is formed so as to surround the reflecting layer; and a p-type electrode that is formed on the barrier.

  • Publication number: 20060234408
    Abstract: The invention provides a vertical group III-nitride light emitting device improved in external extraction efficiency and a method for manufacturing the same. The method includes forming an undoped GaN layer and an insulating layer on a basic substrate. Then, the insulating layer is selectively etched to form an insulating pattern, and an n-doped AlxGayIn(1-x-y)N layer, an active layer and a p-doped AlmGanIn(1-m-n)N layer are sequentially formed on the insulating pattern. A conductive substrate is formed on the p-doped AlmGanIn(1-m-n)N layer. The basic substrate, the undoped gaN layer and the insulating pattern are removed, and an n-electrode is formed on a part of the exposed surface of the n-doped AlxGayIn(1-x-y)N layer.
