Light emitting device and method for manufacturing same

Abstract

A light emitting device has a light emitting element, a package, a lead, and a cover film. The package is arranged to form at least part of an inner peripheral face of a recess portion. The light emitting element is housed in the recess portion. The lead is disposed on a bottom face of the recess portion. The lead is electrically connected to the light emitting element. The cover film is arranged to cover the inner peripheral face of the recess portion. The cover film has light transmissive and electrical insulation. The package includes a base material and a plurality of particles. The base material includes a resin. A coefficient of thermal expansion of the particles is different from a coefficient of thermal expansion of the base material. The particles are disposed at least near the inner peripheral face of the recess portion.
