  • Patent number: 9006779
    Abstract: Disclosed are a nitride semiconductor light-emitting element and a method for manufacturing the same. The nitride semiconductor light-emitting element according to the present invention comprises: a current blocking part disposed between a substrate and an n-type nitride layer; an activation layer disposed on the top surface of the n-type nitride layer; and a p-type nitride layer disposed on the top surface of the activation layer, wherein the current blocking part is an AlxGa(1-x)N layer, and the Al content x times layer thickness (?m) is in the range of 0.01-0.06. Accordingly, the nitride semiconductor light-emitting element can increase the luminous efficiency by having a current blocking part which prevents current leakage from occurring.

  • Publication number: 20140339598
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nitride-semiconductor light-emitting element in which a p-type nitride layer is doped with carbon, and to a production method therefor. More specifically, the present invention relates to a nitride-semiconductor light-emitting element comprising a p-type nitride layer formed from a nitride having a high concentration of free holes as the carbon is auto-doped in accordance with adjustment of the rate of flow of a nitrogen source. The nitride-semiconductor light-emitting element of the present invention can provide a high free-hole concentration, which is difficult to achieve with conventional single p-type dopants, and can therefore lower the resistance and increase the light efficiency of the light-emitting element.
