Title:
RED LIGHT-EMITTING SEMICONDUCTOR ELEMENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING RED LIGHT-EMITTING SEMICONDUCTOR ELEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/128643
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed are: an environmentally friendly red light-emitting semiconductor element which operates at low voltage, while having sufficient luminous efficiency and sufficient luminous intensity; and a method for manufacturing the red light-emitting semiconductor element. Specifically disclosed is a method for manufacturing a red light-emitting semiconductor element, wherein an active layer is formed between a p-type layer and an n-type layer in a sequence of the formation steps of the p-type layer and the n-type layer, said active layer being obtained by adding Eu or Pr into GaN, InN, AlN or a mixed crystal thereof by substituting Ga, In or Al with Eu or Pr, using an organic metal vapor phase deposition method under specific temperature conditions in a site wherein light having a wavelength of 618-623 nm can be emitted. Also specifically disclosed is a red light-emitting semiconductor element which is manufactured by the method for manufacturing a red light-emitting semiconductor element.
