Al is most preferred in many respects.

In this example, the bonding layer 92-5 includes at least one of Ni, Cu, NiAg, and Be. The bonding layer 92-5 is a layer which is bonded to the solder material when bonding (for example, soldering) to an external electrode using a solder material. When the bonding layer 92-5 is made of Au, an alloy is formed by bonding with the solder material Sn, and unstable bonding (for example, a bond that is easily broken) may occur. As a result, such unstable bonding deteriorates the long-term reliability of the semiconductor light emitting device, and the bonding layer 92-5 may be separated over time, and the possibility of occurrence of a failure increases. As in this example, even if the bonding layer 92-5 is made of at least one of Ni, Cu, NiAg, and Be, it also bonds with Sn to form an alloy. However, these metals have a more stable bond than Au and the possibility of failure is lowered.

The light reflection layer 92-6 reflects light that has exited from the
For example, a metal having a high reflectivity such as Al and Ag may be used for the light reflection layer 92-6, and materials such as Al and Ag having a large thermal expansion coefficient can be used from the viewpoint of a crack prevention function (linear thermal expansion coefficient : Al: 22.2, Ag: 19.5, Ni: 13, Ti: 8.6, unit 10 -6 m / mK). Al is most preferred in many respects.
For example, the bonding layer 92-5 is preferably made of Ni in view of prevention of breakdown among Ni, Cu, NiAg, and Be described above and / or prevention of diffusion.
In this example, the diffusion preventing layer 92-7 includes at least one of Ti, TiW, Cr, Pt, Ta, Mg, and Fe, (E.g., Ni). If such a diffusion preventing function is used, other materials than the above-described materials may also be selected as the diffusion preventing layer 92-7, provided that the material is different from the light reflecting layer 92-6 and the bonding layer 92-5. In the absence of the diffusion preventing layer 92-7, the material (for example, Al) of the light reflection layer 92-6 penetrates or diffuses into the bonding layer 92-5 and the bonding force of the bonding layer 92-5, The strength may be lowered. As described above, although the bonding layer 92-5 can prevent the penetration of the bonding material toward the plurality of semiconductor layers 30, 40, and 50, the material of the light reflection layer 92-6 is bonded to the bonding layers 92-5 ), Bonding strength or strength of the bonding is lowered. Therefore, it is preferable that the diffusion prevention layer 92-7 is interposed between the light reflection layer 92-6 and the bonding layer 92-5. On the other hand, the diffusion preventing layer 92-7 may be formed so as to prevent the light reflecting layer 92-6 from breaking. For example, the diffusion preventing layer 92-7 is selected as a material having a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than the light reflecting layer 92-6, and is formed to a thickness of about 0.1 mu m to 0.3 mu m so that the light reflecting layer 92-6 protrudes Or breakdown can be prevented. Alternatively, the thermal expansion coefficient can be made to be the same as that of the bonding layer 92-5, the diffusion preventing layer 92-7, and the light reflecting layer 92-6.
Preferably, the
A light reflection layer 92-6 functioning as a crack prevention layer of 1000 angstroms or more, preferably 5000 angstroms or more is introduced (a metal layer having a large thermal expansion coefficient (for example, Al) is introduced ), Cracking of the semiconductor light emitting element is prevented when the electrode is coupled with an external electrode such as soldering. On the other hand, in order to prevent the light reflection layer 92-6 from protruding or coming out (in Fig. 31, an Al electrode formed to have a thickness of 1000 ANGSTROM or more acts as an element (Arrow)), and a bonding layer 92-5 having a thermal expansion coefficient smaller than that of the light reflection layer 92-6 is formed of Ni.
Ti, TiW, Cr, Pt, Ta, Mg, and the like are used as the diffusion preventive layer 92-7 and the diffusion preventive layer 92-7 are smaller than the light reflection layer 92-6, , And Fe, the diffusion preventing layer 92-7 may have a function of preventing the bursting and diffusion. In this case, the material and thickness of the bonding layer 92-5 can be freely selected. For example, it is possible to use Al (light reflecting layer) of 1 탆, diffusion preventing layer of 0.1 탆 to 0.3 탆, and Ni (bonding layer) of 2 탆. The thickness of the diffusion preventing layer 92-7 is preferably 0.1 mu m to 0.3 mu m. If it is too thin, the diffusion preventive function is weak. If it is too thick, materials such as Ni, Ti, and W increase the temperature in the deposition equipment in the process of thick deposition, and there is a possibility that there is a problem in the PR LIFT OFF process.
There is no particular limitation on the upper limit of the light reflection layer 92-6, but if it is too thick, it is difficult to control with the bonding layer 92-5. On the other hand, if the light reflecting layer 92-6 is thinned to 1000 Å or less, the function as a crack preventing layer becomes low. As will be described later in Fig. 38, when the p-
The thickness of the bonding layer 92-5 may be selected in consideration of the thickness of the light reflection layer of 0.3 탆 to 1 탆, and if it exceeds 3 탆, the thickness may be unnecessary or the electrical characteristics of the semiconductor light emitting device may be impaired.

Only one of the lower electrode layer 92-2 and the upper electrode layer 92-3 may be provided. In addition, all the lower electrode layers 92-2 and the upper electrode layers 92-3 need not be made of the same material. For example, the lower electrode layer 92-2 may be composed of a combination of Al and Ag. Also, one lower electrode layer 92-2 may be composed of a plurality of metals. It is needless to say that a material layer may be additionally provided in addition to the contact layer 92-1, the lower electrode layer 92-2, the upper electrode layer 92-3 and the uppermost layer 92-4. Needless to say, the

The diffusion preventing layer 92-7 prevents the light reflection layer 92-6 material (e.g., Al) from penetrating the light reflection layer 92-6 to the bonding layer 92-5. The bonding layer 92-5 may function to prevent the bonding material from diffusing toward the plurality of semiconductor layers 30, 40 and 50 while being the bonding layer 92-5. As the additional bonding layer 92-8, a tin-containing soldering layer described in Figs. 29 and 35 and the like can be applied.

The additional bonding layer 92-8T is heat treated to significantly improve the bonding strength. This is believed to be due to the fact that gold is not included between the additional bonding layer 92-8T containing the tin and the solder, It is presumed that the bonding strength with the bonding layer 92-5 made of Ni is improved due to heat treatment. Examples of the solder include Sn, PbSn, PbSnAg, PbInAb, PbAg, SnPbAg, PbIn, and CdZn. Therefore, the additional bonding layer 92-8T may be formed of Pb, Ag, In, Ab, Cd, Zn or the like in addition to the tin and heat-treated.
