Abstract
Disclosed is a nitride semiconductor light-emitting element comprising a p-type nitride semiconductor layer 1, a p-type nitride semiconductor layer 2, and a p-type nitride semiconductor layer 3 placed in order above a nitride semiconductor active layer, wherein the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 1 and p-type nitride semiconductor layer 2 each contain Al, the average Al composition of the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 1 is equivalent to the average Al composition of the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 2, the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 3 has a smaller band gap than the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 2, the p-type impurity concentration of the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 2 and the p-type impurity concentration of the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 3 are both lower than the p-type impurity concentration of the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 1, and a method for producing same.
