SEMICONDUCTOR LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICE

摘要

A semiconductor light-emitting device, which does not suffer from color unevenness of the light taken out of a sealing member even when a phosphor is used therein, and enables reduction of the production cost. Specifically disclosed is a semiconductor light-emitting device (1) comprising a semiconductor light-emitting element (4) and a phosphor (5) sealing the semiconductor light-emitting element (4) and having a base material composed of a glass and a luminescence center contained in the base material.  By directly sealing the semiconductor light-emitting element (4) with the phosphor (5), color unevenness of the light emitted from the device is reduced and any sealing material other than the phosphor (5) becomes unnecessary.  Since a process of mixing the phosphor (5) and any other sealing material is not required, the production cost can be reduced.
