Light emitting device

A light emitting device comprising:

• a light emitting element emitting near-ultraviolet light or blue light as exciting light;
• and
• a green color conversion layer including a green phosphor and a resin, the green phosphor represented by formula (2) and being capable of converting the exciting light to green light, the resin surrounding the green phosphor, the green color conversion layer containing the green phosphor at a volume concentration of at most 7%, the green color conversion layer having a region whose cross section parallel to a light emitting surface of the light emitting element has an area larger than the light emitting surface,
• (Sr1-x2Eux2)a2AlSib2Oc2Nd2 (2)
• wherein x2, a2, b2, c2, and d2 satisfy following relations:
• 0<x2≦0.2, 0.93<a2<1.3, 4.0<b2<5.8, 0.6<c2<1.0, and 6.0<d2<11.

A light emitting device comprising:

• a light emitting element emitting near-ultraviolet light or blue light as exciting light;
• and
• a red color conversion layer including a red phosphor and a resin, the red phosphor represented by formula (3) and being capable of converting the exciting light to red light, the resin surrounding the red phosphor, the red color conversion layer containing the red phosphor at a volume concentration of at most 7%, the red color conversion layer having a region whose cross section parallel to a light emitting surface of the light emitting element has an area larger than the light emitting surface,
• (Sr1-x3Eux3)a3AlSib3Oc3Nd3 (3)
• wherein x3, a3, b3, c3, and d3 satisfy following relations:
• 0<x3≦0.2, 0.6<a3<0.95, 2.0<b3<3.9, 0.25<c3<0.45, and 4.0<d3<5.0.
