  • Patent number: 6678307
    Abstract: A semiconductor surface light-emitting device comprises, in a multi-layered structure formed on a substrate, a light-emitting part surrounded by a groove or grooves, provided with an active layer, a vertical cavity and a current aperture, a peripheral part external to the grooves, and a connecting portion connecting the light-emitting part with the peripheral part. There is provided an empty space or a high-resistance region on the upper part of this multi-layered connecting portion, which includes at least the current aperture formed layer or the active layer. This configuration effectively eliminates a path for a leakage current flowing into the peripheral part from the light-emitting part.
