Problems solved by technology

However, in this case as well, the characteristics, shape, layout, etc. of the electrode in contact with the semiconductor layer and the pad electrode provided on the electrode are not considered.
Therefore, the problem of efficiency reduction caused by the light absorption of the pad electrode remains unsolved
[0006] As described above, it is difficult for the conventional technology to improve the light extraction efficiency while increasing the current injection efficiency

Abstract

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor light emitting device includes a stacked structural body, a first electrode, a second electrode, a third electrode, and a fourth electrode. The stacked structural body includes a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer, and a light emitting layer provided between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer. The first electrode is electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer. The second electrode forms an ohmic contact with the second semiconductor layer. The second electrode is translucent to light emitted from the light emitting layer. The third electrode penetrates through the second electrode and is electrically connected to the second electrode to form Shottky contact with the second semiconductor layer. The third electrode is disposed between the fourth electrode and the second semiconductor layer. A shape of the fourth electrode as viewed along a stacking direction of the first semiconductor layer, the light emitting layer, and the second semiconductor layer is same as a shape of the third electrode as viewed along the stacking direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor light emitting device, a semiconductor light emitting device, and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device. Background technique [0002] There is a demand for high efficiency light emitting devices such as LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes). [0003] In an LED, for example, a p-type GaN layer, an active layer, and an n-type GaN layer are stacked, and current is injected into the semiconductor layer from a p-side electrode connected to the p-type GaN layer and an n-side electrode connected to the n-side GaN layer . As a result, light is emitted at the active layer. In an LED using, for example, sapphire as a substrate, a p-side electrode and an n-side electrode are generally provided on a surface on the same side, and light is extracted from the surface on the side of these electrodes. [0004] Usually, for example, a transparent electrode made of metal oxide or the like is used for t...
