Abstract

A GaN based semiconductor light-emitting device is provided. The light-emitting device includes a first GaN based compound semiconductor layer of an n-conductivity type; an active layer; a second GaN based compound semiconductor layer; an underlying layer composed of a GaN based compound semiconductor, the underlying layer being disposed between the first GaN based compound semiconductor layer and the active layer; and a superlattice layer composed of a GaN based compound semiconductor doped with a p-type dopant, the superlattice layer being disposed between the active layer and the second GaN based compound semiconductor layer.
