Problems solved by technology

However, in the case of shortening the light emission wavelength, it is considered that sufficient efficiency cannot be obtained due to the absorption of light by, for example, GaN formed on a sapphire substrate or the like.
[0006] As described above, in the case of exciting a red fluorescent substance with a light emitting diode formed of a semiconductor such as GaN and its mixed crystal, etc., the light emission efficiency of the red fluorescent substance is low
It is considered that even if the light emission wavelength is shortened in order to increase light emission efficiency, sufficient efficiency cannot be obtained due to light absorption by semiconductors such as GaN, etc.
Therefore, by using a light emitting diode formed of a semiconductor such as GaN and its mixed crystal, etc., the red fluorescent substance cannot be made to emit light efficiently
In addition, it is difficult to realize a light-emitting device with high efficiency and high color reproduction by combining red phosphors with any other visible light phosphors

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a light emitting device using a nitride-based III-V compound semiconductor or a light emitting device using a fluorescent substance. Background technique [0002] By utilizing light-emitting diodes (LEDs) formed of GaN and its mixed crystals, attempts have been made to obtain white light based on the emission of various types of light with different peak wavelengths, replacing conventional white fluorescent lamps (see, for example: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 2001-352098). In this publication, a Si-doped GaN light-excitation emissive layer is excited by blue light generated in a multiple quantum well (MQW) light-emitting layer of a light-emitting diode to generate yellow light, and using the fact that these lights have a complementary color relationship, by This gives white light. However, red cannot be generated in the light emitting device described in the above publication, thereby deterio...
