Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, if there is a portion where the width of the electrode changes, the current density of the electrode layer locally increases at the portion where the width of the electrode becomes narrower, and electromigration (EM) may occur to degrade the electrode layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to semiconductor light emitting elements. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor light emitting elements such as LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are used as light sources for various devices such as lighting and displays. Among various light sources, LEDs are used in automotive lighting devices such as DRL (Daytime Running Lights) and HL (Head Lamp) in the field of large light output. light source. [0003] A semiconductor light emitting element includes, for example, an active layer (light emitting layer), semiconductor layers on both sides of the active layer, and electrodes. The electrode has an electrode layer in ohmic contact with the semiconductor layer and a wiring layer stacked on the electrode layer. In plan view, electrodes are sometimes formed to have portions that vary in width. In this case, portions with varying widths are respectively formed in the electrode layer and the wiring layer constituting the ...
