Problems solved by technology

However, in the case of the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1, there is a problem that a vertical light-emitting element cannot be produced because an insulating substrate is used.
In addition, in the case of the technique disclosed in Non-Patent Document 1, although it is possible to form a light-emitting portion with reduced dislocations and strains, there is still a cost constraint due to the use of a silicon single crystal substrate.

Embodiment

[0128] (Example)

[0129] Various light-emitting elements having the same configuration as the light-emitting element 10 according to the first embodiment were fabricated.

[0130] Specifically, the average particle diameter D in the oriented GaN substrate was varied to three levels of 15 μm, 30 μm, and 50 μm, and the opening diameter (maximum outer diameter dimension of the columnar light emitting portion 6 ) d of the opening 2 h was varied to 1 μm, A total of 24 light-emitting elements (sample Nos. 1 to 24) at eight levels of 2 μm, 3 μm, 5 μm, 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, and 25 μm.

[0131] First, an aligned GaN substrate serving as the base substrate 1 was produced by a flux method. First, eight of each of three types of oriented alumina substrates having an average particle diameter of 15 μm, 30 μm, and 50 μm in one main surface were prepared, and each of these was used to fabricate an oriented GaN substrate. It should be noted that any oriented alumina substrate has a diameter...

Abstract

Provided is a light-emitting element that is inexpensive, easy to manufacture, and has superior light extraction efficiency. This light-emitting element is equipped with: an oriented polycrystalline substrate comprising multiple oriented crystal grains; multiple columnar light-emitting parts, which are discretely provided above a region on one primary surface of the oriented polycrystalline substrate in a region where no crystal defects exist, and each of which has a lengthwise direction in the normal line direction of the oriented polycrystalline substrate; and a light-trapping layer formed of a material with a lower refractive index than the constituent material of the columnar light-emitting parts, and provided above the oriented polycrystalline substrate so as to surround the multiple columnar light-emitting parts.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a light-emitting element, particularly to its structure. Background technique [0002] A light-emitting device (LED) using a group 13 nitride (group III nitride) as a material for forming a light-emitting portion is known. In this conventionally known light-emitting element, a substrate (dissimilar material substrate) formed of a material different from the Group 13 nitride, such as sapphire, is generally used as a base substrate, and a plurality of Group 13 nitrides are stacked on the base substrate. crystalline layer. [0003] Self-luminous displays are also well known, and the self-luminous displays are formed by forming a silicon thin film and an n-type GaN layer on a substrate such as a sapphire substrate, a ceramic substrate, a silicon substrate with a silicon oxide film formed on the surface, and the like. The lower wiring of the lower wiring, and further, a mask formed of a silicon nitride film is formed on th...
