Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor light-emitting device.

Background Art

[0002] Semiconductor light-emitting devices are widely used as light source devices for electronic devices and the like. Patent Document 1 discloses an example of a conventional semiconductor light-emitting device. The semiconductor light-emitting device disclosed in the document includes a substrate, a semiconductor light-emitting element, and a sealing resin. The substrate has a main surface, a first side surface and a second side surface, a bottom surface and a top surface. The main surface faces one side in the thickness direction of the substrate. The first side surface and the second side surface face opposite sides in a first direction orthogonal to the thickness direction of the substrate. The bottom surface and the top surface face opposite sides in a second direction orthogonal to both the thickness direction and the first direction. A first main surface electrode and a second main surface electrode are provided on the main surface of the substrate. The first main surface electrode is disposed on one side of the substrate in the first direction, and the second main surface electrode is disposed on the other side in the first direction. The semiconductor light-emitting element is mounted on the main surface (the first main surface electrode). The sealing resin covers the semiconductor light-emitting element and transmits light from the semiconductor light-emitting element.

[0003] The first main surface electrode and the second main surface electrode each include a portion formed in a series in a second direction on the main surface so as to be in contact with both the upper and lower edges. The semiconductor light-emitting device described in Patent Document 1 further comprises a first insulating film and a second insulating film. The first insulating film is formed across the first main surface electrode and the main surface and is covered with a sealing resin. The second insulating film is formed across the second main surface electrode and the main surface and is covered with a sealing resin. When mounting the semiconductor light-emitting device on a circuit board, solder used to mount the semiconductor light-emitting device on the circuit board may penetrate into the interior from between the first main surface electrode (second main surface electrode) and the sealing resin and travel along the first main surface electrode (second main surface electrode). This solder penetration may cause problems such as improper electrical conduction. In contrast, with the configuration comprising the first insulating film and the second insulating film described above, even if solder for mounting penetrates into the interior from between the first main surface electrode (second main surface electrode) and the sealing resin, the penetration of the solder is blocked by the first insulating film (second insulating film). As a result, solder is less likely to penetrate between the first main surface electrode (second main surface electrode) and the first insulating film (second insulating film), and problems such as improper electrical conduction can be suppressed. However, with the configuration in which the first insulating film (second insulating film) is formed on the first main surface electrode (second main surface electrode) and on the main surface, the formation regions of the first main surface electrode (second main surface electrode) and the first insulating film (second insulating film) are required in the thickness direction of the substrate. This is undesirable when aiming to miniaturize semiconductor light-emitting devices. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

The first part 21 and the second part 22 have portions that extend from the translucent resin 6 in one direction x1. Of the first main surface 11, the region sandwiched between the portions of the first part 21 and the second part 22 that extend from the translucent resin 6 in one direction x1, as viewed in the thickness direction z, may be thinly covered by the translucent resin 6. Also, of the first main surface 11, the region sandwiched between the portions of the fourth part 31 and the fifth part 32 that extend from the translucent resin 6 in the other direction x2, as viewed in the thickness direction z, may be thinly covered by the translucent resin 6. This is because, in the manufacturing process of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1, when forming the translucent resin 6, the flat portion of the mold used for formation is pressed against a part of the first part 21, the second part 22, the fourth part 31, and the fifth part 32, respectively, and the resin material flows into the gaps surrounded by the mold, the first part 21 and the second part 22 and the first main surface 11, as well as the gaps surrounded by the mold, the fourth part 31 and the fifth part 32 and the first main surface 11.

[0044] As shown in Figures 2 and 4-6, the insulating film 7 is arranged on the second main surface 12 of the substrate 1. The specific configuration of the insulating film 7 is not limited in any way and may be composed of, for example, a resist layer. The insulating film 7 functions as a marker for determining the connection direction of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1. On the second main surface 12, the insulating film 7 is located near the center in the second direction y and between the third portion 23 and the sixth portion 33 in the first direction x. When viewed in the thickness direction z, the insulating film 7 has a convex shape with the side of the sixth portion 33 protruding in the first direction x. An insulating film 7 with such a shape functions as a marker for determining the connection direction of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1.

[0045] Figure 11 is a left side view showing an example of a semiconductor light-emitting device A1 mounted on a mounting substrate. The semiconductor light-emitting device A1 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90 (represented by dashed lines) with its side surface 16 (facing the other side y2 in the second direction) facing the mounting substrate 90. The semiconductor light-emitting device A1 is used as a side-view type light source that emits light in a direction parallel to the surface of the mounting substrate 90 (to the right in Figure 11). For example, a wiring pattern (not shown) is formed on the surface of the mounting substrate 90. The semiconductor light-emitting device A1 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90 via joints such as solder. The groove relay section 262, the second section 22, the third section 23, the groove relay section 362 (not shown), the fifth section 32 (not shown), and the sixth section 33 (not shown) are each joined to the mounting substrate 90 by joints. In Figure 11, joints Sd1 and Sd2 are represented by dashed lines. Joint Sd1 connects the second part 22 to the mounting substrate 90. Joint Sd2 connects the third part 23 to the mounting substrate 90.

[0046] Next, the operation of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 of this embodiment will be described.

[0047] The semiconductor light-emitting device A1 comprises a first electrode 2 provided on a substrate 1 and a semiconductor light-emitting element 4 mounted on a first main surface 11 of the substrate 1. The first electrode 2 includes a first bonding portion 24, a first portion 21, a second portion 22, and a third portion 23. The first bonding portion 24 is formed on the first main surface 11 and is electrically bonded to the semiconductor light-emitting element 4 (electrode 42) via a bonding material 49. The first portion 21 and the second portion 22 are formed on the first main surface 11 and are arranged on one side x1 in a first direction on the substrate 1. The first portion 21 is connected to the first bonding portion 24 on the first main surface 11. On the other hand, the second portion 22 is separated from the first bonding portion 24 on the first main surface 11 and is also separated from the first portion 21 in a second direction y. The third part 23 is formed in a different location from the first main surface 11 (in this embodiment, the second main surface 12), and the first part 21 and the second part 22 are electrically connected to each other via the third part 23 and the groove relay parts 261 and 262.

[0048] When the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90, solder used for mounting may penetrate between the second part 22 and the light-transmitting resin 6. With the above configuration of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1, since the second part 22 is separated from the first bonding part 24 and the first part 21 connected thereto, even if solder that has penetrated into the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 travels along the second part 22, it is prevented from reaching the first part 21 or the first bonding part 24. Therefore, with the configuration in which the first electrode 2 has the first part 21, the second part 22, the third part 23 and the first bonding part 24, it is possible to prevent problems such as improper electrical conduction due to solder penetration. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A1, unlike, for example, this embodiment, it is not necessary to form an insulating film on the first main surface 11 compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is preferable for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A1.

[0049] The semiconductor light-emitting device A1 further comprises a second electrode 3 provided on a substrate 1. The second electrode 3 includes a second bonding portion 34, a fourth portion 31, a fifth portion 32, and a sixth portion 33. The second bonding portion 34 is formed on the first main surface 11 and is electrically bonded to the semiconductor light-emitting element 4 (electrode 41) via a wire 5. The fourth portion 31 and the fifth portion 32 are formed on the first main surface 11 and are located on the other side x2 in the first direction on the substrate 1. The fourth portion 31 is connected to the second bonding portion 34 on the first main surface 11. On the other hand, the fifth portion 32 is separated from the second bonding portion 34 on the first main surface 11 and is also separated from the fourth portion 31 in the second direction y. The sixth section 33 is formed in a different location from the first main surface 11 (in this embodiment, the second main surface 12), and the fourth section 31 and the fifth section 32 are electrically connected to each other via the sixth section 33 and the groove relay sections 361 and 362.

[0050] When the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90, solder used for mounting may penetrate between the fifth part 32 and the light-transmitting resin 6. With this configuration, when the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90, the fifth part 32 is separated from the second bonding part 34 and the fourth part 31 connected thereto. Therefore, even if solder that has penetrated into the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 travels along the fifth part 32, it is prevented from reaching the fourth part 31 or the second bonding part 34. Accordingly, with a configuration in which the second electrode 3 has the fourth part 31, fifth part 32, sixth part 33 and second bonding part 34, it is possible to prevent problems such as improper electrical conduction due to solder penetration. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A1, unlike, for example, this embodiment, it is not necessary to form an insulating film on the first main surface 11 compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is preferable for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A1.

[0051] The first part 21 of the first electrode 2 is located on one side y1 of the second direction on the first main surface 11, and the second part 22 is located on the other side y2 of the second direction on the first main surface 11. The fourth part 31 of the second electrode 3 is located on one side y1 of the second direction on the first main surface 11, and the fifth part 32 is located on the other side y2 of the second direction on the first main surface 11. With this configuration, it is possible to properly prevent improper solder from entering the inside of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1.

[0052] The second portion 22 of the first electrode 2 is in contact with the first edge 111 of the first main surface 11 on the other side x2 in the first direction. The third portion 23 is formed on the second main surface 12 and is in contact with both the second edge 122 on one side y1 in the second direction and the third edge 123 on the other side y2 in the second direction of the second main surface 12. The second dimension L2, which is the length of the second portion 22 in the second direction y, is the same as the first dimension L1, which is the length of the first portion 21 in the second direction y. The ratio of the length of the second portion 22 in the second direction y (second dimension L2) to the length of the first main surface 11 in the second direction y (third dimension L3) is in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 times. The second portion 22 and the third portion 23 are each joined to the mounting substrate 90 by solder. The solder joined to the second portion 22 is formed in a range corresponding to the second dimension L2 in the second direction y of the second portion 22. The solder bonded to the third part 23 is formed over a sufficiently wide area in the second direction y of the third part 23 (see Figure 11). With this configuration, the mounting strength of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 can be increased.

[0053] The fifth portion 32 of the second electrode 3 is in contact with the first edge 111 on the other side x2 in the first direction of the first main surface 11. The sixth portion 33 is formed on the second main surface 12 and is in contact with both the second edge 122 on one side y1 in the second direction and the third edge 123 on the other side y2 in the second direction of the second main surface 12. The fifth dimension L5, which is the length of the fifth portion 32 in the second direction y, is the same as the fourth dimension L4, which is the length of the fourth portion 31 in the second direction y. The ratio of the length of the fifth portion 32 in the second direction y (fifth dimension L5) to the length of the first main surface 11 in the second direction y (third dimension L3) is in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 times. The fifth portion 32 and the sixth portion 33 are each joined to the mounting substrate 90 by solder. The solder joined to the second portion 22 is formed in the range corresponding to the fifth dimension L5 in the second direction y of the fifth portion 32. The solder bonded to part 6 33 is formed over a sufficiently wide area in the second direction y of part 6 33. With this configuration, the mounting strength of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 can be increased.

[0054] <Second Embodiment> Figures 12 to 14 show a semiconductor light-emitting apparatus according to the second embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 12 is a plan view of the semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A2 of this embodiment. Figure 13 is a bottom view of the semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A2. Figure 14 is a left side view of the semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A2. In the drawings from Figure 12 onward, elements that are the same as or similar to those in the semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A1 of the above embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as in the above embodiment, and their descriptions are omitted as appropriate. Furthermore, the configurations of each part in each embodiment can be appropriately combined with each other to the extent that no technical inconsistencies arise.

[0055] In the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 of this embodiment, the configuration of the second part 22 of the first electrode 2 and the fifth part 32 of the second electrode 3 differs mainly from that of the above embodiment. In addition, the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 is provided with an additional first insulating film 71 and a second insulating film 72.

[0056] In this embodiment, the length of the second part 22 in the second direction y (second dimension L2) is larger than in the above embodiment. Furthermore, the length of the second part 22 in the second direction y (second dimension L2) is larger than the length of the first part 21 in the second direction y (first dimension L1). In the example shown in Figure 12, the ratio of the length of the second part 22 in the second direction y (second dimension L2) to the length of the first main surface 11 in the second direction y (third dimension L3) is approximately 0.59 times.

[0057] In semiconductor light-emitting device A2, the length of the fifth part 32 in the second direction y (fifth dimension L5) is larger than in the above embodiment. The length of the fifth part 32 in the second direction y (fifth dimension L5) is larger than the length of the fourth part 31 in the second direction y (fourth dimension L4). In the example shown in Figure 12, the ratio of the length of the fifth part 32 in the second direction y (fifth dimension L5) to the length of the first main surface 11 in the second direction y (third dimension L3) is approximately 0.59 times.

[0058] As shown in Figures 13 and 14, the first insulating film 71 and the second insulating film 72 are arranged on the second main surface 12. The specific configurations of the first insulating film 71 and the second insulating film 72 are not limited in any way and may be composed of, for example, a resist layer.

[0059] The first insulating film 71 is laminated on the third part 23 and, in the illustrated example, is a strip extending in the first direction x when viewed in the thickness direction z. The first insulating film 71 is formed spanning across the third part 23 and the second main surface 12. When viewed in the thickness direction z, the first insulating film 71 divides the third part 23 into one side y1 in the second direction and the other side y2 in the second direction. On the second main surface 12, the first insulating film 71 is positioned closer to the one side y1 in the second direction. Of the third part 23 divided by the first insulating film 71, the length in the second direction of the portion located on the other side y2 in the second direction is approximately the same as the length of the second part 22 in the second direction y (second dimension L2).

[0060] The second insulating film 72 is located on the second main surface 12. The second insulating film 72 is laminated on the sixth portion 33 and, in the illustrated example, is a strip extending in the first direction x when viewed in the thickness direction z. The second insulating film 72 is formed spanning both the sixth portion 33 and the second main surface 12. When viewed in the thickness direction z, the second insulating film 72 divides the sixth portion 33 into one side y1 in the second direction and the other side y2 in the second direction. On the second main surface 12, the second insulating film 72 is located closer to the one side y1 in the second direction. Of the sixth portion 33 divided by the second insulating film 72, the length in the second direction of the portion located on the other side y2 in the second direction is approximately the same as the length of the fifth portion 32 in the second direction y (fifth dimension L5).

[0061] Figure 15 is a left side view showing an example of a semiconductor light-emitting device A2 mounted on a mounting substrate. The semiconductor light-emitting device A2 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90 (represented by dashed lines) with its side surface 16 (facing the other side y2 in the second direction) facing the mounting substrate 90.

[0062] According to this embodiment, when the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90, the second part 22 is separated from the first bonding part 24 and the first part 21 connected thereto. Therefore, even if solder that has entered the interior of the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 travels along the second part 22, it is prevented from reaching the first part 21 or the first bonding part 24. Thus, with a configuration in which the first electrode 2 has a first part 21, a second part 22, a third part 23, and a first bonding part 24, it is possible to prevent problems such as improper electrical conduction due to solder intrusion. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A2, unlike in this embodiment, for example, the formation of an insulating film on the first main surface 11 is unnecessary compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is preferable for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A2.

[0063] When the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 is mounted on the mounting substrate 90, the fifth part 32 is separated from the second bonding part 34 and the fourth part 31 connected thereto. Therefore, even if solder that has entered the interior of the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 travels along the fifth part 32, it is prevented from reaching the fourth part 31 or the second bonding part 34. Thus, with the configuration in which the second electrode 3 has the fourth part 31, the fifth part 32, the sixth part 33, and the second bonding part 34, it is possible to prevent problems such as improper electrical conduction due to solder intrusion. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A2, unlike in this embodiment, for example, the formation of an insulating film on the first main surface 11 is unnecessary compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is preferable for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A2.

[0064] The length of the second part 22 in the second direction y (second dimension L2) is greater than the length of the first part 21 in the second direction y (first dimension L1). The second part 22 and the third part 23 are each joined to the mounting substrate 90 by solder. The solder joined to the second part 22 is formed in the range corresponding to the second dimension L2 in the second direction y of the second part 22. The solder joined to the third part 23 is formed on the other side y2 of the second direction, which is partitioned by the first insulating film 71 of the third part 23 (see Figure 15). With this configuration, variations in the size of the solder joined to the second part 22 and the solder joined to the third part 23 can be suppressed. This makes it possible to increase the mounting strength of the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 and mount it more stably.

[0065] The length of the fifth part 32 in the second direction y (fifth dimension L5) is greater than the length of the fourth part 31 in the second direction y (fourth dimension L4). The fifth part 32 and the sixth part 33 are each joined to the mounting substrate 90 by solder. The solder joined to the fifth part 32 is formed in the range corresponding to the fifth dimension L5 in the second direction y of the fifth part 32. The solder joined to the sixth part 33 is formed on the other side y2 of the second direction, which is partitioned by the second insulating film 72 within the sixth part 33. With this configuration, variations in the size of the solder joined to the fifth part 32 and the solder joined to the sixth part 33 can be suppressed. This increases the mounting strength of the semiconductor light-emitting device A2 and makes it possible to mount it more stably. In addition, within the range of the same configuration as the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 of the above embodiment, the same effects and advantages as in the above embodiment are achieved.

[0066] <Third Embodiment> Figures 16 to 18 show a semiconductor light-emitting apparatus according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 16 is a plan view of semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A3 of this embodiment. Figure 17 is a front view of semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A3. Figure 18 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line XVIII-XVIII in Figure 16.

[0067] In the semiconductor light-emitting device A3 of this embodiment, the configuration of the second part 22 of the first electrode 2 and the fifth part 32 of the second electrode 3 differs from the above embodiment mainly. In this embodiment, the length of the second part 22 and the fifth part 32 in the first direction x is smaller than in the above embodiment. The edge of the second part 22 on the other side x2 in the first direction is located closer to the one side x1 in the first direction compared to the above embodiment. The edge of the fifth part 32 on the one side x1 in the first direction is located closer to the other side x2 in the first direction compared to the above embodiment. As a result, the second part 22 and the fifth part 32 are exposed from the light-transmitting resin 6.

[0068] With this configuration, when the semiconductor light-emitting device A3 is mounted on a mounting substrate, solder bonded to the second part 22 (fifth part 32) is prevented from entering the interior of the semiconductor light-emitting device A3 via the second part 22 (fifth part 32). This prevents problems caused by solder intrusion. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A3, unlike in this embodiment, for example, the formation of an insulating film on the first main surface 11 is unnecessary compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is advantageous for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A3. In addition, within the scope of the same configuration as the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 of the above embodiment, the same effects and advantages as in the above embodiment are achieved.

[0069] <Fourth Embodiment> Figures 19 to 23 show a semiconductor light-emitting apparatus according to the fourth embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 19 is a plan view of semiconductor light-emitting apparatus A4 of this embodiment. Figure 20 is a cross-sectional view along the line XX-XX in Figure 19. Figure 21 is a cross-sectional view along the line XXI-XXI in Figure 19. Figure 22 is a cross-sectional view along the line XXII-XXII in Figure 19. Figure 23 is a cross-sectional view along the line XXIII-XXIII in Figure 19.

[0070] In the semiconductor light-emitting device A4 of this embodiment, the configuration of the substrate 1, the first electrode 2, and the second electrode 3 differs mainly from the above embodiment. In this embodiment, grooves 171 to 174 are not provided at the four corners of the substrate 1. Instead, the substrate 1 has through holes 181 to 184. Each of the through holes 181 to 184 penetrates the substrate 1 in the thickness direction z. Through hole 181 overlaps the first part 21 and the third part 23 when viewed in the thickness direction z. Through hole 182 overlaps the second part 22 and the third part 23 when viewed in the thickness direction z. Through hole 183 overlaps the fourth part 31 and the sixth part 33 when viewed in the thickness direction z. Through hole 184 overlaps the fifth part 32 and the sixth part 33 when viewed in the thickness direction z.

[0071] In this embodiment, the first electrode 2 does not have groove relay portions 261, 262, but instead has through-conductive portions 271, 272. The through-conductive portion 271 fills the through-hole 181. The through-conductive portion 271 is connected to both the first portion 21 and the third portion 23. The through-conductive portion 271 overlaps the first main surface 11 when viewed in the thickness direction z, and is located between the first main surface 11 and the second main surface 12 in the thickness direction z. The through-conductive portion 272 fills the through-hole 182. The through-conductive portion 272 is connected to both the second portion 22 and the third portion 23. The through-conductive portion 272 overlaps the first main surface 11 when viewed in the thickness direction z, and is located between the first main surface 11 and the second main surface 12 in the thickness direction z. With the above configuration, the first part 21 and the second part 22 are electrically connected to each other via the third part 23 and the through-conductive portions 271 and 272. The through-conductive portions 271 and 272 are examples of parts that constitute the third part of this disclosure.

[0072] In this embodiment, the second electrode 3 does not have groove relay portions 361, 362, but instead has through-conductive portions 371, 372. The through-conductive portion 371 fills the through-hole 183. The through-conductive portion 371 is connected to both the fourth portion 31 and the sixth portion 33. The through-conductive portion 371 overlaps the first main surface 11 when viewed in the thickness direction z, and is located between the first main surface 11 and the second main surface 12 in the thickness direction z. The through-conductive portion 372 fills the through-hole 184. The through-conductive portion 372 is connected to both the fifth portion 32 and the sixth portion 33. The through-conductive portion 372 overlaps the first main surface 11 when viewed in the thickness direction z, and is located between the first main surface 11 and the second main surface 12 in the thickness direction z. With the above configuration, the fourth part 31 and the fifth part 32 are electrically connected to each other via the sixth part 33 and the through-conductors 371 and 372. The through-conductors 371 and 372 are examples of parts that constitute the sixth part of this disclosure.

[0073] According to this embodiment, when the semiconductor light-emitting device A4 is mounted on a mounting substrate, the second part 22 is separated from the first bonding part 24 and the first part 21 connected thereto. Therefore, even if solder that has entered the interior of the semiconductor light-emitting device A4 travels along the second part 22, it is prevented from reaching the first part 21 or the first bonding part 24. Thus, with a configuration in which the first electrode 2 has the first part 21, the second part 22, the third part 23, and the first bonding part 24, it is possible to prevent problems such as improper electrical conduction due to solder intrusion. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A4, unlike in this embodiment, for example, the formation of an insulating film on the first main surface 11 is unnecessary compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is preferable for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A4.

[0074] When the semiconductor light-emitting device A4 is mounted on a mounting substrate, the fifth part 32 is separated from the second bonding part 34 and the fourth part 31 connected thereto. Therefore, even if solder that has entered the interior of the semiconductor light-emitting device A4 travels along the fifth part 32, it is prevented from reaching the fourth part 31 or the second bonding part 34. Thus, with a configuration in which the second electrode 3 has the fourth part 31, the fifth part 32, the sixth part 33, and the second bonding part 34, it is possible to prevent problems such as improper electrical conduction due to solder intrusion. Furthermore, in the semiconductor light-emitting device A4, unlike, for example, this embodiment, it is not necessary to form an insulating film on the first main surface 11, compared to cases where an insulating film is interposed between the electrode and the light-transmitting resin. This is advantageous for miniaturizing the semiconductor light-emitting device A4. In addition, within the scope of a configuration similar to that of the semiconductor light-emitting device A1 of the above embodiment, the same effects and advantages as in the above embodiment are achieved.

[0075] The semiconductor light-emitting device relating to this disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described above. The specific configuration of each part of the semiconductor light-emitting device relating to this disclosure can be modified in various ways.
