A semiconductor light-emitting device includes a light-emitting layer and a light extraction layer formed on the light-emitting layer and made of a resin material containing particles. The maximum size of each of the particles contained in the light extraction layer is smaller than the wavelength of emitted light penetrating through the light extraction layer.

Each of solid-state imaging elements 11a, 11b and 11c includes a photoelectric conversion element and a photonic crystal which is formed on the photoelectric conversion element. The photonic crystal has a refractive index periodic structure including: a periodic structure in the stacking direction which is created by stacking low refractive layers 1 and high refractive layers 2 alternately, and a periodic structure in the in-plane direction which is created by concentric similar shapes (circles or polygons). Both RGB color separation and light condensing can be achieved all at once using this photonic crystal only. There are two methods for fabricating the photonic crystal: lithography and etching for fabricating a tubular photonic crystal having a central cavity and similar-shaped cavities around the central cavity which form a concentric pattern in the in-plane direction; and autocloning for fabricating, on a base having the concentric pattern, a photonic crystal having a refractive index periodic structure in both the in-plane direction and the stacking direction.

A solid state-imaging element including photoelectric conversion element and an optical element such as a photonic crystal is disclosed. The optical element is formed on the photoelectric conversion element, and has a refractive index periodic structure made up of stacked layers of materials with different refractive indices. The refractive index periodic structure is defined by multiple layers along a stacking direction and by a group of concentric similar shapes along an in-plane direction. The optical element may be fabricated via lithography and etching, or an autocloning technique. A solid state-imaging device including an arrangement of several solid-state imaging elements is also disclosed.

An n-type buffer layer composed of n-type GaN, an n-type cladding layer composed of n-type AlGaN, an n-type optical confinement layer composed of n-type GaN, a single quantum well active layer composed of undoped GaInN, a p-type optical confinement layer composed of p-type GaN, a p-type cladding layer composed of p-type AlGaN, and a p-type contact layer composed of p-type GaN are formed on a substrate composed of sapphire. A current blocking layer formed in an upper portion of the p-type cladding layer and on both sides of the p-type contact layer to define a ridge portion is composed of a dielectric material obtained by replacing some of nitrogen atoms composing a Group III–V nitride semiconductor with oxygen atoms.

In a short-wavelength laser module, long-term reliability is lost because of unnecessary gas deposited on the end face of its optical waveguide. A short-wavelength laser module has a package structure wherein a package lid used when the short-wavelength laser module is hermetically sealed does not make contact with internal gas, and a process of accelerating the polymerization of a securing agent used inside the package is incorporated, whereby unnecessary gas from the securing agent is eliminated and the long-term reliability of the output is attained.
