Abstract
A semiconductor light-emitting element includes: an n-type semiconductor layer made of an n-type AlGaN-based semiconductor material; an active layer made of an AlGaN-based semiconductor material provided on the n-type semiconductor layer; a p-type semiconductor layer provided on the active layer; a p-side contact electrode made of Rh and in contact with the p-type semiconductor layer; a p-side electrode covering layer made of TiN that covers the p-side contact electrode; a dielectric protective layer that covers the n-type semiconductor layer, the active layer, the p-type semiconductor layer, and the p-side electrode covering layer; and a p-side pad electrode in contact with the p-side electrode covering layer in a p-side opening that extends through the dielectric protective layer on the p-side contact electrode.
