    摘要: Deposited on a wafer-like substrate for forming a plurality of light emitting device chips is a semiconductor layer laminate with a different property from that of the substrate. Then, electrodes are provided on and in electric connection with a top semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type of the semiconductor layer laminate, and on and in electric connection with a semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type, exposed by locally etching the semiconductor layer laminate, in association with the individual chips. Then, the semiconductor layer laminate is etched at boundary portions between the chips to expose the substrate, and the substrate is broken at the exposed portions into the chips. As the semiconductor layer laminate is etched out at the boundary portions between the chips before breaking the wafer, breaking can be facilitated without damaging the light emitting portions of the semiconductor layer laminate. This helps provide high-performance semiconductor light emitting devices.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device. Semiconductor overlying layers are formed on a substrate in a state of a wafer so that a light emitting area is provided therein. The semiconductor overlying layers includes first and second conductivity type layers. Part of the semiconductor overlying layers including the first conductivity type layer on a surface thereof is removed so as to expose part of the second conductivity type layer. Electrodes are formed, for each chip, respectively in connection with the surface of the first conductivity type layer and the surface of the exposed second conductivity type layer. The wafer is divided into individual chips. The exposed areas of the second conductivity type semiconductor layer is provided only part of a peripheral area of the chip so that the first conductivity type semiconductor layer is directly separated during dividing the wafer into individual chips. With such a method, when dividing a wafer into chips, the inefficiency of the space (etched areas do not contribute to light emission) is eliminated in etch-removing the semiconductor overlying layers at areas to be divided, thereby improving chip yield and hence reducing cost.
