Light emitting device having element connection sections with convex shapes
A light emitting device includes a substrate, a light emitting element, a light transmissive member and a sealing member. The substrate has a first main surface, a second main surface that is opposite from the first main surface, and a mounting surface that is adjacent to at least the second main surface. The substrate includes an insulating base material, and a pair of connection terminals. The insulating base material defines a concave component opening on the second main surface and the mounting surface. The connection terminals are disposed on the first main surface, and respectively have element connection sections with convex shapes. The light emitting element has a pair of electrodes which connect to the element connection sections of the pair of connection terminals. The light transmissive member is disposed on an upper surface of the light emitting element. The sealing member is in contact with at least a part of a side surface of the light emitting element, covers a side surface of the light transmissive member, and is formed substantially in the same plane as the substrate on the mounting surface.
