Abstract

A light emitting semiconductor device which emits blue and/or green light has an active layer and a pair of clad layers which sandwich the active layer (3), deposited on a substrate (1). The substrate (1) is made of GaAs, InP, GaAsP or Ge. Said active layer (3) and said clad layers (2, 4) are made of II-VI group compound semiconductor which is lattice-matched with the substrate at both room temperature and growing temperature, for instance 500.degree. C. Said II-VI group compound semiconductor has the same linear thermal expansion coefficient as that of the substrate. The linear thermal expansion coefficient of the II-IV group compound semiconductor is adjusted by additive of Cd, Mg or Hg.
