In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device of an embodiment, at room temperature, a first substrate including a semiconductor laminate body is adhered to a second substrate with a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than that of the first substrate. Then, the first substrate and the second substrate are heated with the first substrate heated at a temperature higher than that of the second substrate. Thus the first substrate and the second substrate are bonded together. The first substrate is either a sapphire substrate including a nitride-based semiconductor layer, or a GaAs substrate including a phosphorus-based semiconductor layer. The second substrate is a silicon substrate, a GaAs substrate, a Ge substrate, or a metal substrate.

A semiconductor light emitting device includes an active layer, an electrode formed above the active layer, a current spreading layer formed between the active layer and the electrode, having n-type conductivity, having a larger bandgap energy than the active layer, and spreading electrons injected from the electrode in the plane of the active layer, and a surface processed layer formed on the current spreading layer, having a larger bandgap energy than the active layer, and having an uneven surface region with a large number of concave-convex structures. The electrode is not formed on the uneven surface region. The conduction band edge energy from the Fermi level of the surface processed layer is higher than that of the current spreading layer.
