Abstract
A manufacturing method of a nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting element includes: forming an n-type nitride-based semiconductor layer; forming, on the n-type nitride-based semiconductor layer, a light emission layer including a nitride-based semiconductor; forming, on the light emission layer in an atmosphere containing a hydrogen gas, a p-type nitride-based semiconductor layer while doping the p-type nitride-based semiconductor layer with a p-type dopant at a concentration of at least 2.0×10atom/cm; and annealing the p-type nitride-based semiconductor layer at a temperature of at least 800 degrees Celsius in an atmosphere not containing hydrogen. In this manufacturing method, a hydrogen concentration of the p-type nitride-based semiconductor layer after the annealing is at most 5.0×10atom/cmand at most 5% of the concentration of the p-type dopant, and a hydrogen concentration of the light emission layer is at most 2.0×10atom/cm.
