Abstract:
1. A semiconductor light-emitting device comprising: a first semiconductor layer having a first major surface, a second major surface which is an opposite side from the first major surface, and a side surface; a second semiconductor layer provided on a top of the second major surface of the first semiconductor layer and including a light-emitting layer; electrodes provided on the second major surface of the first semiconductor layer and on a lower surface of the second semiconductor layer on an opposite side from the first semiconductor layer; an insulating layer having a first surface above the lower surface of the second semiconductor layer and a second surface which is an opposite side from the first surface; an external terminal which is a conductor provided on the second surface side of the insulating layer; and a phosphor layer provided on the first major surface of the first semiconductor layer and on the side surface of the first semiconductor layer on the first surface of the insulating layer; wherein a portion of the first semiconductor layer is formed above the first surface of the insulating layer and another portion of the first semiconductor layer is formed below the first surface of the insulating layer.
