1. A light-emitting semiconductor device comprising:

  • a blue-light-emitting diode which emits blue light, the blue-light-emitting diode having a light extraction surface; and

    a luminescent layer which includes a yellow/yellowish phosphor that absorbs blue light emitted by the blue-light-emitting diode to emit a yellow/yellowish fluorescence,wherein the luminescent layer is exposed on the blue-light-emitting diode,the yellow/yellowish phosphor contains a compound expressed by the chemical formula;
