Patent ID: 11652191

Abstract:
The semiconductor light-emitting element includes an n-type semiconductor layer; an active layer on the n-type semiconductor layer; a p-type semiconductor layer on the active layer; a p-side contact electrode in contact with the p-type semiconductor layer; a p-side current diffusion layer on the p-side contact electrode; an n-side contact electrode in contact with the n-type semiconductor layer; and an n-side current diffusion layer that includes a first current diffusion layer on the n-side contact electrode, and a second current diffusion layer on the first current diffusion layer, and including a TiN layer. A height difference between upper surfaces of the p-side contact electrode and the first current diffusion layer is 100 nm or smaller; and a height difference between upper surfaces of the p-side current diffusion layer and the second current diffusion layer is 100 nm or smaller.
