Iii-nitride semiconductor light-emitting device and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

A semiconductor light-emitting device includes a substrate, a buffer layer, an n-type semiconductor layer, a conformational active layer and a p-type semiconductor layer. The n-type semiconductor layer includes a first surface and a second surface, and the first surface directly contacts the buffer layer. The second surface includes a plurality of recesses, and a conformational active layer formed on the second surface and within the plurality of recesses. Widths of upper portions of the recesses are larger than widths of lower portions of the recesses. Therefore, the stress between the n-type semiconductor layer and the conformational active layer can be released with the recesses.
