If the depth of C2 is smaller than the above range, a dark area is formed between adjacent convex portions P1, P2, and P3. When the depth of the recessed portions C1 and C2 is greater than the above range, the light emitting device 10 The recessed portion C extends to the area adjacent to the light emitting element 105, increasing the optical interference between the light emitting element 105. The depth D4 of the recesses C1 and C2 is determined by the distance from the straight line connecting the vertices of the protrusions P1, P2, and P3 to the recesses C1 and C2. It may be the straight-line distance between the bottom points of the sections C1 and C2.

The first surface S1, the second surface S2, and the second surface S3 of the resin layer 220 can contact the light emitting portion 111 of the resin layer 220. The third surface S3 and the fourth surface S4 are outer surfaces between the first and second reflective layers 230 and 240. The upper surface of the resin layer 220 may be in contact with the second reflective layer 240, and the lower surface may be The resin layer 220 may be in contact with the first reflective layer 230. The upper and lower surfaces of the resin layer 220 may be The first reflective layer 230 may be a flat surface or a curved surface. The bottom surface of the resin layer 220 may be in contact with the substrate 210. The surface area of ​​the resin layer 220 may be the same as the surface area of ​​the upper surface of the substrate 210. The area of ​​the upper surface of the resin layer 220 may be the same as the area of ​​the upper surface of the first reflective layer 230. The area may be the same as the area of ​​the top surface of the second reflective layer 240. The length of the layer 220 may be the same as the length (e.g., X1) of the substrate 210. The maximum length of the resin layer 220 is the maximum length of the first reflective layer 230 or the second reflective layer 240.

The maximum length (for example, Y1) may be the same as the maximum length of the first reflective layer 230. The maximum length (for example, Y1) of the resin layer 220 in the Y direction is equal to the maximum length of the second reflective layer 240. The minimum length of the resin layer 220 in the first direction Y may be the same as the maximum length of the substrate 210. The minimum length of the resin layer 220 in the first direction Y may be equal to the first reverse length. The minimum length in the first direction Y may be the same as the minimum length of the reflective layer 230 or the second reflective layer 240. The major length Y1 is the distance between the apex (or high point) of the convex portions P1, P2, and P3 of the lighting device and the second surface S2. The minimum length is the length between the bottom point of the concave surface S13 of the lighting device and the second surface S2. The resin layer 220 may be disposed between the first and second reflective layers 230 and 240. The first and second reflective layers 230 and 240 have the same area, and the resin layer 220 Therefore, the resin layer 220 can face the upper and lower surfaces of the light emitting element 1.

Here, the thickness of the light emitting element 105 may be determined by the length of the light emitting element 105 in the vertical direction. The thickness of the light emitting element 105 may be less than the length in the first direction Y. The thickness of the light emitting element 105 may be, for example, 1 mm to 2 mm. For example, it can be in the range of 1.2 mm to 1.8 mm. A part of the resin layer 220 is formed between the light emitting elements 101, 102, and 103 and the second reflective layer 2. 40. As a result, the resin layer 220 is disposed between the light emitting elements 101, 1 The light emitting element 105 can protect the upper portions of the light emitting elements 102 and 103 and prevent moisture from penetrating. In the case of the light-emitting element 200, the substrate 210 is disposed on the bottom and the resin layer 220 is disposed on the top. Therefore, the upper surface of the resin layer 220 and the The distance between the upper surfaces of the light emitting elements 101, 102, and 103 is 0.6 mm or less, for example 0. The upper part of the resin layer 220 may be arranged in a range of 5 mm to 0.6 mm. 101, 102, and 103, and the upper portions of the light emitting elements 101, 102, and 103 As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the convex surfaces of the convex portions P1, P2, and P3 can be protected. The exit surface S11 may have a first curvature. The concave surface S13 may be flat or The convex portions P1, P2, and P3 may have a curvature greater than the first curvature. The radius of curvature is 7.5 mm or more, for example, in the range of 7.5 mm to 14 mm or 8 mm to 11 mm. The curvature radius of each of the convex portions P1, P2, and P3 can be in the range of m.

For example, the thickness Z1 of the lighting device 200 may be in the range of 0.4 to 0.8 times. The difference between the thickness Z1 of the resin layer 220 and the thickness Z1 of the lighting device 200 is 1.2 mm or less. Since the light source 200 is disposed in a flexible manner, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the light efficiency of the lighting device 200. The thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 is The length or maximum length of the resin layer 220 may be smaller than the length or maximum length of the resin layer 220 in the second direction X.
