Abstract
A semiconductor light emitting element includes: an n-type semiconductor layer; a light emitting layer alternately laminating plural barrier layers and plural well layers; and a p-type semiconductor layer, wherein the light emitting layer includes three or more well layers and four or more barrier layers, each well layer being sandwiched by the barrier layers, one barrier layer contacting the n-type semiconductor layer, and another barrier layer contacting the p-type semiconductor layer, the well layers include plural n-side well layers from the n-type semiconductor layer side and one p-side well layer on the p-type semiconductor layer side, and a V-shaped concave portion including inclined surfaces is generated in the light emitting layer, and in at least one of the n-side well layers, a concentration of atoms of In on the inclined surface is not more than 50% of a concentration of atoms of In in the n-side well layer.
