Disclosed are a semiconductor light emitting device and a method of manufacturing the same. The method includes providing a substrate having first and second main surfaces opposing each other and forming a first uneven structure in the first main surface, forming a sacrificial layer on the first main surface of the substrate, forming a mask having open regions on the sacrificial layer so as to expose a portion of an upper surface of the sacrificial layer, forming a second uneven structure in the substrate by etching the sacrificial layer and the substrate through the open regions, removing the sacrificial layer and the mask from the substrate, and forming a light emitting stack on the first and second uneven structures of the substrate.

Semiconductor light emitting device and method of manufacturing the same

There is provided a method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device, the method including: forming a light emitting structure by sequentially growing an n-type nitride semiconductor layer, an active layer, and a p-type nitride semiconductor layer on a substrate; forming a transparent electrode on the p-type nitride semiconductor layer through a sputtering process; and forming a nitrogen gas atmosphere in an interior of a reaction chamber in which the sputtering process is performed, prior to or during the sputtering process. In the case of the semiconductor light emitting device obtained according to embodiments of the invention, a deterioration phenomenon in electrode characteristics caused due to a nitrogen vacancy may be minimized in manufacturing a transparent electrode through a sputtering process to thereby allow for the provision of a transparent electrode having significantly improved electrical characteristics.
