  • Patent number: 6916676
    Abstract: A method of producing an efficient nitride semiconductor element having an opposed terminal structure. The method includes a growing step for growing the nitride semiconductor further having an undoped GaN layer on a different materials substrate; subsequently, an attaching step for attaching the supporting substrate to the first conductive type nitride semiconductor layer side of the nitride semiconductor and interposing a first terminal between them; and subsequently, an exposing step for exposing the second conductive type nitride semiconductor layer by eliminating the different material substrate and the undoped GaN.

  • Patent number: 6744071
    Abstract: A highly efficient nitride semiconductor element having an opposed terminal structure, whose terminals face each other. The nitride semiconductor element includes a conductive layer, a first terminal, a nitride semiconductor with a light-emitting layer, and a second terminal, on a supporting substrate successively. The first terminal and a first insulating protect layer are interposed between the conductive layer and a first conductive type nitride semiconductor layer of the nitride semiconductor.
