Abstract:
1. A semiconductor light emitting device comprising: a lead frame including a plurality of lead terminals, a semiconductor light emitting element die-bonded to said lead frame, a sealing member sealing said lead frame such that each of said plurality of lead terminals and said semiconductor light emitting element are exposed, and a reflector attached to said sealing member to direct light emitted by said semiconductor light emitting element towards one direction, wherein a predetermined lead terminal among said plurality of lead terminals is arranged towards a side where said reflector is located and connected to said reflector, said predetermined lead terminal being connected to a portion of said lead frame to which said semiconductor light emitting element is die-bonded, wherein said reflector is formed by bending a member to become said reflector, formed integrally with said predetermined lead terminal in a state in which the reflector is spread out in an unfolded manner corresponding to an expansion plan.
