A long-life light emitting diode for further making uniform light emission without an excessive current concentration and improving a light pick-up efficiency. The light emitting diode comprises, when viewed from an electrode-disposed surface side, an n-side electrode consisting of an n-side connection unit (9-1) to be connected with a conductive member and an n-side stretching unit (9- 2) stretching in a longitudinal direction from the specified part of an n- side connection unit, and a p-side pad unit consisting of at least a p- side connection unit (10b-1) to be connected with a conductive member, and is further provided with an n-side connection area in which an n-side connection unit is disposed in the vicinity of one end thereof in a longitudinal direction, a p-side connection area in which a p-side connection unit is disposed in the vicinity of the other end thereof in a longitudinal direction, and an intermediate area positioned therebetween, wherein the n-side stretching unit is located in the intermediate area and stretches to face a p-side current diffusion unit in the intermediate area. |
