    Abstract: A Group III nitride semiconductor light-emitting device includes a sapphire substrate; and an n contact layer, an n cladding layer, a light-emitting layer, a p cladding layer, and a p contact layer, each of the layers being formed of Group III nitride semiconductor, are sequentially deposited on the sapphire substrate. The n cladding layer includes two layers of a high impurity concentration layer and a low impurity concentration layer in this order on the n contact layer, and the low impurity concentration layer is in contact with the light-emitting layer. The low impurity concentration layer is a layer having a lower n-type impurity concentration than that of the high impurity concentration layer, which has an n-type impurity concentration of 1/1000 to 1/100 of the p-type impurity concentration of the p cladding layer and a thickness of 10 ? to 400 ?.

  • Publication number: 20130111821
    Abstract: A glass run capable of being readily attached to corner parts of a door frame of a door of a motor vehicle such that an end edge of a corner cover of the glass run can be securely engaged with an end of a corner piece. A corner cover adapted to cover a vehicle-exterior surface of the corner piece like an arcuate configuration is formed in a corner section of the glass run. An arcuate end edge of the corner cover defines a corner cover lip for contacting an end of the corner piece, and a corner cover engaging wall is formed in the corner cover so as to protrude inwardly from a vehicle-interior surface of the corner cover lip. The corner cover engaging wall and the corner cover lip define an engaging groove, and a plurality of corner cover inclination ribs are formed so as to respectively have an inclined surface connecting the corner cover engaging wall and the vehicle-interior surface of the corner cover lip.
