Claim:
1. A semiconductor light emitting device comprising a semiconductor layer, an A layer, and a B layer, wherein: the semiconductor light emitting device is configured such that at least a part of emitted light from the semiconductor layer is emitted outward from the B layer through the A layer, the thickness of the A layer is from 1 nm to 200 nm, the B layer has a first major surface and a second major surface, while the first major surface faces the A layer and the second major surface has a concave-convex microstructure, the B layer contains an inorganic substance at 60 mass-% or more on the basis of the total mass of the B layer, and the content of an inorganic substance present in the A layer is lower than the content of the inorganic substance present in the B layer.
