1. A light emitting device comprising:

  • a first semiconductor layer;

    an active layer to generate a light on the first semiconductor layer;

    a second conductive semiconductor layer on the active layer;

    a transparent electrode layer on the second conductive semiconductor layer; and

    a multiple thin film mirror on the transparent electrode layer, the multiple thin film mirror being formed by repeatedly stacking a first thin film layer having a first refractive index and a second thin film layer having a second refractive index different from the first refractive index by at least one time,wherein the second conductive semiconductor layer has a thickness satisfying following equation 1;

    Equation 1wherein, Φ

    1 is a phase shift occurring when a light, which travels in a vertical direction, passes through the second conductive semiconductor layer and is expressed as Φ

    (n is a refractive index of the light, λ

    is a wavelength of the light, and d is a thickness of the second conductive semiconductor layer), Φ

    2 is a phase shift occurring when the light is reflected from one of the transparent electrode layer and the multiple thin film mirror, and N is a natural number.
