A semiconductor device is constituted by a quantum-wave interference layer with plural periods of a pair of a first layer W and a second layer B. The second layer B has wider band gap than the first layer W. Each thickness of the first layer W and the second layer B is determined by multiplying by an odd number one fourth of wavelength of quantum-wave of carriers in each of the first layer W and the second layer B existing around the lowest energy level of the second layer B. A δ layer, for sharply varying energy band, is formed at an every interface between the first layer W and the second layer B and has a thickness substantially thinner than the first layer W and the second layer B. The quantum-wave interference layer functions as a reflecting layer of carriers for higher reflectivity.
A light-emitting semiconductor device having a quantum-wave interference layer with plural periods of a pair of a first layer and a second layer, said second layer having a wider band gap than said first layer, comprising:
