Light emitting device and projector

Abstract

A light emitting device includes a laminated structure having a plurality of columnar parts, wherein the columnar part includes a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer different in conductivity type from the first semiconductor layer, and a third semiconductor layer disposed between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer, the third semiconductor layer includes a light emitting layer, and the second semiconductor layer includes a first portion, and a second portion which surrounds the first portion in a plan view from a laminating direction of the first semiconductor layer and the light emitting layer, and is lower in impurity concentration than the first portion.
