Abstract
The present III-nitride semiconductor light-emitting device comprises: a first III-nitride semiconductor layer having a first conductivity type; a second III-nitride semiconductor layer having a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type; an active layer disposed between the first III-nitride semiconductor layer and the second III-nitride semiconductor layer and generating light by recombination of electrons and holes; and a depletion barrier layer brought into contact with the active layer and having a first conductivity type.
