Abstract
A semiconductor device that has excellent characteristics and mass productivity wherein the introduction of defects thereinto at the time of device separation is prevented, and a method for producing the semiconductor device. In particular, there is provided a high-performance semiconductor device having excellent luminous efficiency, longevity and mass productivity; and a method for producing this semiconductor device. The method for producing the semiconductor device has a step of forming, between a substrate comprising zinc oxide (ZnO) and a device operating layer, a defect-blocking layer having a crystal composition that is different from that of the substrate, and a step of forming device dividing grooves to a depth that goes beyond the defect-blocking layer, relative to the device operating layer side surface of the substrate on which the device operating layer is formed.
