In a nitride semiconductor device having an active layer 12 between a first electrically conductive type of layer and a second electrically conductive type of layer, a quantum well structure is adopted in which an active layer 12 has at least a well layer 11 formed of a nitride semiconductor containing In and Al and a barrier layer 2 formed of a nitride semiconductor containing Al, whereby a laser device excellent in emitting efficacy at a short wavelength region is obtained. It is particularly preferable that said well layer 1 is formed of Al.sub.xIn.sub.yGa.sub.1-x-yN (0
