Problems solved by technology

However, these oxide films are difficult to obtain with III-V compound semiconductors such as aluminum gallium indium phosphide mixed crystals (Al X Ga 1-X ) Y In 1-Y Reliable ohmic contact of P
[0031] Thus, even when the medium passing through any of the above-mentioned transparent oxide films will, for example, have a transparent substrate sapphire (α-Al 2 o 3 single crystal), glass, titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), or magnesium oxide (MgO) is bonded to the laminated structure, in the manufactured LED, it is difficult for the device operating current to diffuse over a wide area of ​​the laminated structure through the medium of the transparent substrate, which is problematic

[0171] First, the laminated structure 11 for forming a pn junction compound semiconductor light emitting device 10 (hereinafter this device may be referred to as an LED chip) is formed through the following procedures.

[0172] The stacked structure 11 is formed by sequentially stacking the following layers on the (100) crystal plane of a zinc (Zn)-doped p-type gallium arsenide (GaAs) single crystal substrate 100: a zinc-doped p-type GaAs buffer layer 101, Aluminum gallium indium phosphide mixed crystal ...

example 2

[0206] The difference between the LED chip 20 and the LED of Example 1 is that an undoped n-type boron phosphide layer is provided as the conductor layer 205 .

[0207] The present invention will be described by Example 2 below. The same constituent members as employed in Example 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals.

[0208] 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an exemplary LED lamp 22 including the LED chip 20 of Example 2. As shown in FIG.

[0209] In a similar manner to Example 1, the constituent layers 101 to 104 of the laminated structure 21 except the conductor layer 205 were formed on the single crystal substrate 100 .

[0210] Next, an undoped n-type boron phosphide (BP) layer is formed on the upper cladding layer 104 as the conductor layer 205 .

[0211] At 800 ° C, by atmospheric pressure (close to atmospheric pressure) metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) method, using triethylborane (molecular formula: (C 2 h 5 ) 3 B) as a source of bor...
