Provided is an emitting device which is capable of improving the luminous efficiency of an emitting layer formed using a group IV semiconductor material and obtaining an emission spectrum having a narrow band, and a manufacturing method therefor. The emitting device comprises: an emitting layer having a potential confinement structure, comprising: a well region comprising a group IV semiconductor material; and a barrier region being adjacent to the well region and comprising a group IV semiconductor material which is different from the group IV semiconductor material in the well region, wherein: a continuous region from the well region over an interface between the well region and the barrier region to a part of the barrier region comprises fine crystals; and a region in the barrier region, which is other than the continuous region comprising the fine crystals, is amorphous or polycrystalline region.
