[0165] The nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting element 200 of this embodiment is, for example, Figure 21 Shown are a GaN substrate 60 and a semiconductor stack 70 formed on the GaN substrate 60 .

[0166] The GaN substrate 60 of this embodiment is formed by performing the ELO method. To obtain the GaN substrate 60 , for example, a GaN layer for the GaN substrate may be formed thick while covering a part of a sapphire substrate (not shown) with a mask made of a silicon oxide film and exposing the other part. In this method, the sapphire substrate is removed after the GaN layer is formed. Alternatively, mesh-shaped titanium may be formed on a GaN layer formed on a sapphire substrate, and a GaN layer for the GaN substrate may be formed thereon. In this method, after the GaN layer is formed, titanium is use...
