  • Publication number: 20080265245
    Abstract: Provided is a substrate for a light-emitting device having good light emitting efficiency and light-emitting device using the substrate. A light transparent substrate 10 is layered with a first layer 30 having a refractive index higher than that of the light transparent substrate 10 and a second layer 40 having a refractive index lower than that of the first layer.
