Abstract
A semiconductor light-emitting device includes a semiconductor substrate and a light-emitting layer on the semiconductor substrate. The light-emitting layer includes at least one quantum well layer and barrier layers alternately stacked. The quantum well layer includes a first semiconductor mixed crystal having a larger lattice constant than a lattice constant of the semiconductor substrate. The barrier layers each includes a second semiconductor mixed crystal having a smaller lattice constant than the lattice constant of the semiconductor substrate. The quantum well layer includes a first strain amount that is a product of the layer thickness thereof and a first strain ratio. The barrier layer each includes a second strain amount that is a product of the layer thickness thereof and a second strain ratio. The quantum well layer and the barrier layers are provided such that the first strain amount is greater than the second strain amount.
