Abstract

A semiconductor light emitting device made of nitride III-V compound semiconductors includes an active layer made of a first nitride III-V compound semiconductor containing In and Ga, such as InGaN; an intermediate layer made of a second nitride III-V compound semiconductor containing In and Ga and different from the first nitride III-V compound semiconductor, such as InGaN; and a cap layer made of a third nitride III-V compound semiconductor containing Al and Ga, such as p-type AlGaN, which are deposited in sequential contact.
