III-Nitride Semiconductor Light Emitting Device

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a III-nitride semiconductor light-emitting device including: a plurality of III-nitride semiconductor layers having a first III-nitride semiconductor layer having a first conductivity type, a second III-nitride semiconductor layer having a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type, and an active layer disposed between the first III-nitride semiconductor layer and the second III-nitride semiconductor layer and generating light by recombination of electrons and holes; a bonding pad electrically connected to the plurality of III-nitride semiconductor layers; a protection film disposed over the bonding pad; and a buffer pad disposed between the bonding pad and the protection film and formed to expose the bonding pad.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
