Method for producing optical semiconductor device and optical semiconductor device

Abstract

A method is provided for making optical semiconductor devices collectively. LED chips are arranged on a material substrate, and the substrate is sandwiched by a common mold and a first cooperating mold formed with a cavity. A light-transmitting resin is injected into the cavity and solidified to form a light-transmitting resin member including body portions for sealing the LED chips and connecting portions each connecting adjacent body portions. Then, the substrate is sandwiched by the common mold and a second cooperating mold formed with another cavity. A light-shielding resin is injected into the cavity and solidified to form a light-shielding resin member filling the gaps between the body portions. The body portions are separated from each other by making cuts in the material substrate and the light-shielding resin member.
