Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device employs a substrate formed by successively stacking an n-type semiconductor layered portion including an AlGaN layer, a light emitting layer containing In and a p-type semiconductor layered portion on a group III nitride semiconductor substrate having a larger lattice constant than AlGaN. This method includes the steps of selectively etching the substrate from the side of the p-type semiconductor layered portion along a cutting line to expose the AlGaN layer along the cutting line, forming a division guide groove along the cutting line on the exposed AlGaN layer, and dividing the substrate along the division guide groove.
