20100163894 | Group III nitride-based compound semiconductor light-emitting device - In the Group III nitride-based compound semiconductor light-emitting device of the invention, an non-light-emitting area is formed in a light-emitting layer. In a light-emitting diode where light is extracted on the side of an n-layer, an outer wiring trace portion and an inner wiring trace portion of an n-contact electrode impedes light emission from the light-emitting layer. Therefore, there are provided, at the interface between a p-layer and a p-contact electrode, high-resistance faces having a width wider than the orthogonal projections of contact areas between the outer and inner wiring trace portions and the n-layer on the interface between the p-contact electrode and the p-layer. Through this configuration, current flow is limited, and portions having a total area equivalent to that of the high-resistance faces of the light-emitting layer serve as non-light-emitting areas. Thus, current can be supplied preferentially to an area of the light-emitting area where the outer wiring trace portion and the inner wiring trace portion are difficult to shade light, whereby light extraction efficiency with respect to supplied current can be enhanced. | 07-01-2010 |

20110281381 | Method for producing group III nitride semiconductor light-emitting device - The present invention provides a method for producing a Group III nitride semiconductor light-emitting device, the device including a light-emitting layer which is formed so as to contour a stripe-pattern embossment and to have a uniform thickness. In the production method, firstly, a stripe-pattern embossment having a serrated cross section is formed on one surface of a substrate. Subsequently, on the surface of the substrate on the side of the stripe-pattern embossment having a serrated cross section, an n-type layer, a light-emitting layer, and a p-type layer are sequentially deposited through reduced-pressure MOCVD so as to contour the embossment. Thus, each of the layers is formed so as to contour the embossment, and to have a stripe pattern with a serrated cross section. In this MOCVD process, the direction of gas flow is parallel with the direction of the stripe of the embossment. Thus, the light-emitting layer has uniform thickness and composition in an in-plane direction. | 11-17-2011 |

Fine irregularities are formed on the surface at the side joining to an n-electrode of the n-type layer, except for a region on which the n-electrode is formed, and a translucent insulating film having a refractive index of from 1.5 to 2.3 is formed on the fine irregularities. Light extraction efficiency is improved by reflection of light to the n-type layer side by the groove and prevention of reflection to the n-type layer side by the insulating film. | 12-15-2011 |
