Abstract
A semiconductor light emitting apparatus can include a housing filled with a wavelength conversion material-containing resin material which seals a semiconductor light emitting device inside the recess of the housing. A transparent resin material can be charged on the wavelength conversion material-containing resin material, and can be configured to prevent the resin materials from being detached from each other or from other portions, such as a housing. Furthermore, such a semiconductor light emitting apparatus can emit light with less color unevenness. The housing can include a first recessed portion and a second recessed portion. The second recessed portion can have a larger diameter than the first recessed portion so as to form a stepped area at the boundary therebetween. The first recessed portion is filled with the wavelength conversion material-containing resin material as a first resin. The first resin extends along from an inner surface of the first recessed portion up to an inner surface of the second recessed portion to cover the inner surface of the second recessed portion. Accordingly, the first resin is recessed at its center area toward the semiconductor light emitting device to form a curved upper surface, and the second resin on the first resin is not in contact with the housing.
