A light emitting device in which the bottom surface of a cup portion is configured to have an opening, and one electrode of a light emitting element is electrically connected to the cup portion, and the other electrode of the light emitting element is electrically connected to a lead which is set up through an inner space from outside the cup portion by making use of the opening of the cup portion. As a result of this configuration, each electrode and each lead of the light emitting device can be electrically connected to each other without using a bonding wire. This makes it possible to prevent occurrence of a shadow or light unevenness reflecting shape of the bonding wire, thereby allowing an enhancement in light-emission efficiency. Also, in substitution for setting up the lead through the inner space from outside the cup portion, the lead existing outside the cup portion and the other electrode of the light emitting element are electrically connected to each other via the bonding wire set up through the opening of the cup portion. As a result of this configuration, light outputted to outside of the light emitting device is escaped from being partially intercepted by the bonding wire. This makes it possible to prevent the occurrence of a shadow or light unevenness, thereby allowing an enhancement in the light-emission efficiency.
