Problems solved by technology

[0013] However, in the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor light-emitting device described in Patent Document 3, heat treatment must be performed after the metal layer including the Mg layer and the Au layer is provided, and the process of removing the metal layer must be performed. The problem that the number of processes is greatly increased and the manufacturing cost is increased
In addition, when removing the aforementioned Au layer, it is necessary to use a strong acid such as aqua regia, which may damage the surface of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor.

Abstract

Disclosed is a gallium nitride compound semiconductor light-emitting device having high light extraction efficiency and low driving voltage (Vf). Specifically disclosed is a gallium nitride compound semiconductor light-emitting device wherein a light-transmitting conductive oxide film containing a dopant is arranged on a p-type semiconductor layer. In this gallium nitride compound semiconductor light-emitting device, the dopant concentration at the interface between the p-type semiconductor layer and the light-transmitting conductive oxide film is set higher than the bulk dopant concentrationof the light-transmitting conductive oxide film, thereby reducing the contact resistance between the p-type semiconductor layer and the light-transmitting conductive oxide film.
