Claim:
1. A light emitting device comprising: a mounting board; a plurality of light emitting elements arranged with gaps between devices on the mounting board in a first direction; a wavelength-conversion member disposed on a light extraction side of the light emitting elements in a manner covering the surface of the light emitting elements and the gaps between the light emitting elements, the wavelength-conversion member configured to convert at least a portion of the light emitted by the light emitting elements to a different wavelength, the wavelength-conversion member having side surfaces; and a light reflective resin that covers perimeter regions of the light emitting elements and the wavelength-conversion member side surfaces, wherein each of the plurality of light emitting elements has, in order from the light-extraction surface side, an n-type semiconductor layer, an active layer provided in a part of the n-type semiconductor layer and having side faces, and a p-type semiconductor layer provided on the active layer, wherein n-side electrodes are provided at least in both end regions of the n-type semiconductor layer in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction, and a p-side electrode is provided on the surface of the p-type semiconductor layer, wherein the wavelength-conversion member is positioned to approximately align both of the wavelength-conversion member side surfaces with both active layer side faces, or to dispose the wavelength-conversion member side surfaces outward of the active layer side faces in the second direction, and wherein the wavelength-conversion member side surfaces are positioned in the second direction between the active layer side faces and inward facing sides of the n-side electrodes.
