Abstract
A package for mounting a light emitting element includes a recess; a pair of lead electrodes exposed at a bottom surface of the recess; a plating layer covering a surface of each of the pair of lead electrodes; and a resin molded body retaining the pair of lead electrodes, and forming an area between the pair of lead electrodes at the bottom surface of the recess and a lateral surface of the recess. At least one of the lead electrodes has a front surface protrusion that is linearly formed along the resin molded body at the bottom surface of the recess and along a periphery of the bottom surface of the recess, and a back surface protrusion that is formed at a position at a back surface opposite to a position of the front surface protrusion, and at least a tip of each of the front surface protrusion and the back surface protrusion is exposed outside the plating layer.
