PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a light-emitting diode of novel configuration capable of enhancing the light extraction efficiency.SOLUTION: A light-emitting diode is configured to include a chip (12) having a luminous layer on the surface, and a translucent member (13) bonded between the rear surface (12b) of the chip and a lead frame (11) for supporting the chip with a translucent resin, and transmitting the light emitted from the luminous layer. With such a configuration, the percentage of the light returning back to the luminous layer by reflecting on the interface to the lead frame is reduced, because a translucent member transmitting the light emitted from the luminous layer is provided on the rear side of the chip having the luminous layer, extraction efficiency of light can be enhanced. |
