Abstract
This invention provides a surface mounting type light emitting diode excellent in heat radiation performance, reliability and productivity. The surface mounting type light emitting diode includes an insulating base member, a semiconductor light emitting element having a bottom face fixedly bonded to a top face of the base member, and a metallic reflector joined to the top face of the base member with a heat conduction type adhesive sheet interposed therebetween, to surround the semiconductor light emitting element. Heat generated from the semiconductor light emitting element is transferred to the reflector via the base member and the heat conduction type adhesive sheet, and then is radiated to the outside. The metallic reflector can efficiently radiate the heat to the outside. The cutting margin provided for the reflector facilitates a dicing process, which improves productivity.
