Abstract
A semiconductor light-emitting device with a transparent conductive film has: a light-emitting portion formed on a semiconductor substrate, the light-emitting portion having an n-type clad layer, an active layer and a p-type clad layer; an As-based contact layer formed on the light-emitting portion, the contact layer being doped with a p-type dopant of 1×10/cmor more; a current spreading layer formed on the contact layer, the current spreading layer being formed of a transparent conductive film made of a metal oxide material; and a buffer layer formed between the contact layer and the p-type clad layer. The buffer layer has two or more buffer layer parts, and the adjacent buffer layer parts are different each other in material or composition.
