Claim:
1. A method of manufacturing a light emitting device, the method comprising: providing a light emitting element that has an electrode-formed surface, a light extracting surface opposite to the electrode-formed surface in a light emitting element height direction, and a light emitting element lateral surface provided between the electrode-formed surface and the light extracting surface; providing a lower mold that has an upper surface and a projected portion projecting in a lower mold height direction from the upper surface, the projected portion having a bottom portion which is provided on the upper surface and having a projected portion upper surface opposite to the bottom portion in the lower mold height direction, the projected portion having a projected portion lateral surface provided between the bottom portion and the projected portion upper surface; arranging the light emitting element on the projected portion of the lower mold such that the light extracting surface contacts the projected portion upper surface; covering the upper surface, the projected portion lateral surface and the light emitting element lateral surface with a cover member after arranging the light emitting element on the projected portion of the lower mold such that the light extracting surface contacts the projected portion upper surface; removing the lower mold to provide a recessed portion on the light extracting surface surrounded by a sidewall made of the cover member; and providing a first light-transmissive member in the recessed portion.
