Abstract
The light emitting element includes a first electrode and a second electrode opposite each other and electrically connected respectively to a first conductive-type layer and a second conductive type layer constituting a semiconductor structure. The first electrode has a pair of electrode extending portions disposed opposite each other on an electrode forming surface over the first conductive-type layer which is positioned at the light extracting side. In the opposing direction of the pair of electrode extending portions, a half distance Ibetween the electrode extending portions is smaller than the distance Lfrom the electrode extending portions to an end edge of the electrode forming surface.
