Patent ID: 8581285

Claim:
A semiconductor light-emitting element for flip-chip mounting on a circuit substrate, comprising: a semiconductor layer including a light-emitting layer; a protective layer for protecting said semiconductor layer; a transparent material disposed between said light-emitting layer and said protective layer; an N-side bump electrode for connecting said semiconductor layer to said circuit substrate; and a P-side bump electrode for connecting said semiconductor layer to said circuit substrate, wherein: said N-side bump electrode and said P-side bump electrode each include an under-bump metal layer and an electrolytically plated metal layer; said under-bump metal layer includes a high-reflectivity metal layer disposed on a side that faces said semiconductor layer and a metal layer disposed on a side opposite from said semiconductor layer; said plated metal layer has a thickness not smaller than 3 μm but not larger than 30 μm; and said N-side bump electrode and said P-side bump electrode are disposed over said light-emitting layer.
