  • Patent number: 6607595
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are (1) a light-emitting semiconductor device that uses a gallium nitride compound semiconductor (AlXGa1-xN) in which the n-layer of n-type gallium nitride compound semiconductor (AlxGa1-XN) is of double-layer structure including an n-layer of low carrier concentration and an n+-layer of high carrier concentration, the former being adjacent to the i-layer of insulating gallium nitride compound semiconductor (AlxGa1-xN); (2) a light-emitting semiconductor device of similar structure as above in which the i-layer is of double-layer structure including an iL-layer of low impurity concentration containing p-type impurities in comparatively low concentration and an iH-layer of high impurity concentration containing p-type impurities in comparatively high concentration, the former being adjacent to the n-layer; (3) a light-emitting semiconductor device having both of the above-mentioned features and (4) a method of producing a layer of an n-type gallium nitride compound semiconductor (AlxGa1-x
