On the other hand, the second layer 132 may be doped with a p-type dopant such as Mg. As the second layer 132 is doped with a P-type dopant, the hole injection efficiency may be increased and the operating voltage may be lowered.

On the other hand, the second layer 132 may have a predetermined thickness d3 to increase the probability of trapping holes, for example, may have a thickness of 2 nm to 15 nm.

In addition, the first layer 131 and the second layer 132 may be formed to have a different band gap, which will be described later with reference to FIG. 3.

3 is a diagram illustrating an energy band diagram of a light emitting device according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 3, the band gaps of the first layer 131 and the second layer 132 of the third barrier layer B3 may have different sizes. For example, the band gaps of the second layer 132 may be different from each other. A cart structure formed smaller than the band gap of the first layer 131 may be formed. In addition, the band gap of the second layer 132 is smaller than the band gap of the first layer 131 of the first and second barrier layers B1 and B2, and the third barrier layer B3, and the well layer Q1, It may be formed larger than the band gap of Q2, Q3).

On the other hand, if the thickness of the well layers Q1, Q2, and Q3 serving as the light emitting layer is increased, the probability of trapping the carrier may increase, but if the well layers Q1, Q2, and Q3 are formed thick, piezoelectric polariziton Distortion of the quantum well structure is increased, resulting in low internal quantum efficiency and red shift of the emission spectrum in light emitting devices that generate light by recombination of electrons and holes. The electrical and optical properties of may deteriorate.

The carrier injection efficiency can be increased without causing spectral defects of the light generated in the well layers Q1, Q2, and Q3 and warpage of the band. Therefore, the injection efficiency of the carrier may be increased and the probability of recombination between holes and electrons may be increased, thereby improving luminous efficiency of the light emitting device 100.

On the other hand, since holes have a smaller mobility than electrons, electrons are excessively injected compared to holes, and electrons are excessively overflowed, and electrons flow over the active layer 130 to the second semiconductor layer 150. Symptoms may occur.

In the light emitting device 100 according to the embodiment, the third barrier layer B3 adjacent to the second semiconductor layer 150 doped with a P-type dopant is formed to have a cart structure, and thus is provided from the second semiconductor layer 150. The probability of trapping of a carrier, for example, a hole, may increase. Therefore, the probability of recombination between the electrons and the holes may be increased, and an overflow from the electrons provided from the first semiconductor layer 120 may be prevented from flowing to the second semiconductor layer 150. The luminous efficiency of 100 may be improved.
