Claims8
A semiconductor light emitting device comprising:
- a semiconductor light emitting element that emits light;
- and
- a submount that includes a mounting surface on which the semiconductor light emitting element is mounted via a bonding material,
- wherein the semiconductor light emitting element includes:
- a semiconductor multilayer structure that includes:
- an opposite surface opposite the mounting surface;
