Abstract
A light extraction product (1) for a semiconductor light emitting device is provided with a concavo-convex structure layer (11), provided with a concavo-convex structure (11a) on a surface thereof, having a first refractive index (n1) and a light extraction layer (12), provided on the convex portion of the concavo-convex structure (11a), having a second refractive index (n2), where in a first light extraction layer (12a) a distance Lcv between an average position Sh of tops of the convex-portions and a convex-portion upper interface average position Scv of the first light extraction layer (12a) meets equation (1) 10 nm≦Lcv≦5000 nm, in the concavo-convex structure (11a) a convex-portion average height H meets equation (2) 10 nm≦H≦5000 nm, an average pitch P meets equation (3) 50 nm≦P≦5000 nm, and the distance Lcv and the convex-portion average height H meet equation (4) 50 nm≦Lcv+H≦6000 nm. It is possible to improve light extraction efficiency from the semiconductor light emitting device using the light extraction product (1), and further to enhance long-term reliability of the semiconductor light emitting device.
