[0773] (Production of cylindrical master mold)

[0774] As the base material of the cylindrical master mold, a cylindrical quartz glass roll with a diameter of 80 mm and a length of 50 mm was used. On the surface of this cylindrical quartz glass roll, a fine structure (fine concavo-convex structure) was formed by a direct write lithography method using a semiconductor pulse laser as follows.

[0775] First, a resist layer is formed on the fine structure of the quartz glass surface by a sputtering method. The sputtering method was performed using CuO (containing 8 atm% Si) as a target (resist layer) and with RF 100W power. The film thickness of the resist layer after film formation was 20 nm. The cylindrical mold produced as above was exposed on the following conditions while rotating at a linear velocity s=1.0 m / sec.

Abstract

An optical substrate PP (10) includes a substrate body and a recess / bump structure (20) formed of a plurality of bumps (20a) provided on the main surface of the substrate body. Markings (X) that can be observed with an optical microscope are formed on the main surface. The interval between the markings is larger than the pitch of the recess / bump structure (20). The markings (X) can be recognized as first areas (Xa) and a second area (Xb) by a difference in brightness in an optical microscopic image of the markings (X). A plurality of first areas (Xa) are arranged at intervals, and the second area (Xb) exists among the first areas (Xa). According to the present invention, the improvement of the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) and the improvement of the light extraction efficiency (LEE) of semiconductor light-emitting elements, which have been said to be a trade-off, are achieved at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical substrate, a semiconductor light-emitting element and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in order to improve the efficiency of semiconductor light-emitting elements such as organic electroluminescence (OLED), phosphor, and light-emitting diode (LED), people have conducted research on improving the light extraction efficiency of semiconductor light-emitting elements. Such a semiconductor light-emitting element has a configuration in which a high-refractive-index region including a light-emitting portion is sandwiched between low-refractive-index regions. Therefore, the luminous light emitted from the light-emitting part of the semiconductor light-emitting element is a waveguide mode guided in the high-refractive-index region, is confined in the high-refractive-index region, and is absorbed into heat and attenuated during the waveguide process. As described above, in the sem...
