A light emitting element is disclosed. When the light emitting diode is used as a backlight source for a liquid crystal display, the distance from the light emitting element 25 to the light receiving surface of the light guide plate 11 is reduced to increase the light spreading angle theta2 of the light introduced from the light emitting element 25 into the light guide plate 11 and also increase the amount of light entering the light guide plate 11, thus enhancing the level of brightness of the liquid crystal display. The light emitting diode comprises: a mother board 8 having an opening 9; a pair of electrodes 23, 24 arranged on one surface of the mother board 8; a light guide plate 11 arranged on the other surface of the mother board 8; a light emitting element 25 arranged in the opening 9 of the mother board 8 and mounted to one of the pair of electrodes 23, 24; and a positioning means 30 mounted on the one electrode to position the light emitting element 25 close to the light guide plate 11.
