- the luminous efficiency decreases monotonically. That is, the pixel LED element has an appropriate current density that maximizes the luminous efficiency.
- the light emitting device is formed by individually separating all the layers of the semiconductor layer 1150 including the light emitting layer by etching or the like. At this time, the joint surface between the light emitting layer and the p-shaped semiconductor layer is exposed at the end of the light emitting element. Similarly, the joint surface between the light emitting layer and the n-type semiconductor layer is exposed at the end.
- the semiconductor layers 650 and 650a have four side surfaces, two light emitting surfaces and four ends.
- the region between the openings 658-1 and 658-2 has few electrons and holes injected and hardly contributes to light emission, it can be considered that the number of ends contributing to light emission is six.
- the number of end portions of the semiconductor layer is substantially reduced, so that recombination that does not contribute to light emission is reduced. By reducing the recombination that does not contribute to light emission, the drive current for each light emitting surface is reduced.
- the sub-pixel group 620 of the sixth embodiment has a light emitting surface 653S1.
- the distance between the light emitting surface and the light emitting surface 653S2 is substantially shortened.
- the p-type semiconductor layer is shared as in the case of the sixth embodiment, a part of the holes injected into the driven light emitting surface is split and not driven.
- the light emitting surface may emit a small amount of light.
- the p-type semiconductor layer is separated into two, and each p-type semiconductor layer has a light emitting surface, so that a slight light emission is generated on the light emitting surface on the undriven side. It can be reduced.
- the semiconductor layer including the light emitting layer is formed by crystal growth from the n-type semiconductor layer on the connection plate 630a, which is preferable from the viewpoint of reducing the manufacturing cost.
- the stacking order of the n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer is changed, and the p-type semiconductor layer, the light emitting layer, and the n-type semiconductor layer are laminated in this order from the side of the connection plate 630a. It may be done as described above.
- connection plate 630a for wiring, the semiconductor layer below the semiconductor layers 650 and 650a is electrically connected to the external circuit regardless of the via for each light emitting surface. Can be done. Therefore, it is not necessary to secure a region for via connection on the connection plate 630a, which enables high-density arrangement of circuit elements. In addition, since the wiring lead-out structure for connecting to the external wiring is simplified, the yield is expected to be improved.
