Abstract
A light-emitting device includes a semiconductor laser element, a base, a cover, and two lead terminals. The base has a bottom portion supporting the semiconductor laser element and a lateral wall surrounding the semiconductor laser element with the lateral wall being bonded to the bottom portion. The lateral wall includes a light-transmitting portion configured to transmit a laser beam emitted from the semiconductor laser element. The cover and the base together define an encapsulation space in which the semiconductor laser element is encapsulated. The two lead terminals penetrate through the lateral wall of the base, one end of each of the lead terminals being located inside the encapsulation space. The bottom portion of the base has an upper surface defining a recessed portion located between the two lead terminals as viewed from above. The recessed portion has a flat bottom surface over which the semiconductor laser element is placed.
