Light emitting device, method of manufacturing light emitting device, planar light source, and liquid crystal display device

A method of manufacturing a light emitting device comprising:

• providing a first member comprising:
• a base,
• a plurality of phosphor frames positioned on the base, the plurality of phosphor frames including a first phosphor frame and a second phosphor frame that is adjacent to the first phosphor frame, and
• a light transmissive member, a portion of which is disposed between the first phosphor frame and the second phosphor frame;
• disposing a first light emitting element in the first phosphor frame and a second light emitting element in the second phosphor frame, wherein:
• each of the first and second light emitting elements has an emission face and an electrode forming face located opposite to the emission face,
• each of the first and second light emitting elements comprises an electrode located on its electrode forming face, and
• each of the first and second light emitting elements is disposed such that its emission face faces the base;
• and
• cutting the light transmissive member.
