    摘要: Provided is a light-emitting element which is capable of improving the external quantum efficiency by controlling a dopant concentration of an interface between a light-emitting layer and another semiconductor layer.
    A nitride-based semiconductor light-emitting element includes: a first semiconductor layer 20 of a first conductivity type; a second semiconductor layer 50 of a second conductivity type; a carrier block layer 40 provided in the second semiconductor layer 50 on a side closer to the first semiconductor layer 20 and containing an impurity of the second conductivity type; a light-emitting layer 30 provided between the first semiconductor layer 20 and the carrier block layer 40; and a spacer layer 35 which is provided between the carrier block layer 40 and the light-emitting layer 30 and makes the concentration of the impurity of the second conductivity type in the vicinity of the interface with the light-emitting layer 30 be at a predetermined concentration or less.
