Abstract
A semiconductor light-emitting element comprising a monocrystal substrate; a buffer layer formed directly on the monocrystal substrate and comprising a monocrystal Alx Ga1-x N layer (0<x<1); and element-forming layer formed on the buffer layer and comprising Alx Gay In1-x-y N (0≦x+Y≦1, 0≦x, Y≦1). The half-value width of an X-ray rocking curve of the buffer layer should preferably be 5 minutes or less, more preferably 90 seconds or less.
