Light-emitting device, projector, and display

Abstract

A light-emitting device including a substrate, a plurality of column portions each including a first semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type, a second semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type, and a light-emitting layer provided between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer, an electrode including a first electrode layer electrically coupled to the second semiconductor layer of each of the plurality of column portions, and a second electrode layer provided on an opposite side of the first electrode layer from the substrate and having an electrical resistivity lower than an electrical resistivity of the first electrode layer, wherein the first electrode layer includes a first portion in contact with the second electrode layer on the opposite side from the substrate, and a second portion not in contact with the second electrode layer on the opposite side from the substrate and having a greater thickness than the first portion.
