Abstract

A nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting device and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The nitride-based light-emitting device includes a first conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer, a light-emitting layer and a second conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer, that are successively layered above a translucent base. A first conductivity type electrode layer is electrically connected to the first conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer, and a second conductivity type electrode layer is electrically connected to the second conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer.

Claims (12)

1. A nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting device comprising:

a translucent base;

a first conductivity type electrode layer comprising at least one of a metal thin-film layer and a transparent conductive layer;

a first conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer;

a light-emitting layer; and

a second conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer, wherein

the translucent base, the first conductivity type electrode layer, the first conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer, the light-emitting layer, and the second conductivity type nitride-based semiconductor layer are successively layered in this order,

the translucent base has a thickness of approximately 100 μm,

a thick-film layer is embedded in said translucent base, and

said translucent base is composed of a translucent resin.

2. The nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein said thick-film layer is composed of a plated layer.

3. The nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein said thick-film layer is composed of a metal bump.
