Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor light emitting device having excellent light extraction efficiency and a high emission output in which a planar shape is a rectangular shape with vertical and longitudinal sides each having a different length. The present light emitting device comprises a substrate and a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer formed on the substrate, wherein a planar shape is a rectangular shape with vertical and longitudinal sides each having a different length, and a side surface of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer is not vertical to a principal surface of the substrate.
