Also, there was a fear that a fluorescent substance absorbs moisture and thereby quality of the fluorescent substance deteriorates. Also, in the structure of the light emission layer 14, it is difficult to uniformly apply a fluorescent substance to the light emitting element 13 and there was a fear that variations in intensity or color of light emission occur by variations in film thickness (presence of the fluorescent substance) of the light emission layer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Next, embodiments of the invention will be described based on the drawings. First Embodiment FIG. 1 is a sectional diagram schematically showing a semiconductor device 100 according to a first embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the semiconductor device 100 is a semiconductor device made by mounting a light emitting element 102 made of, for example, an LED in a substrate 101 made of, for example, Si. Also, an optically-transparent cover 103 with a flat plate shape made of, for example, glass is installed above the light emitting element 102, and a fluorescent substance film 104 is formed on the cover 103. As a result of this, in the semiconductor device 100 according to the present embodiment, resin etc. including a fluorescent substance or the fluorescent substance film are not applied to the light emitting element (LED) directly, so that heat dissipation of the light emitting element 102 improves and an influence of reduction in quality by heat generation of the light emitting element is suppressed. Also, an influence in which the fluorescent substance film 104 deteriorates by irradiation etc. with ultraviolet rays or heat dissipation from the light emitting element 102 is suppressed and a life can be prolonged while increasing quality of the semiconductor device. Also, the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment has a feature in which uniformity of a film thickness of the fluorescent substance film is good since the fluorescent substance film is formed on the cover 103 with a substantially flat plate shape by, for example, a printing method. In a related-art semiconductor device, a method for directly applying a fluorescent substance film to a light emitting element was generally used, so that the fluorescent substance film was susceptible to heat dissipation of the light emitting element and also it became difficult to uniformly apply the fluorescent substance film to the light emitting element. For example, when the fluorescent substance film is directly formed on the light emitting element using a dispenser, there were problems that it is difficult to improve uniformity of the film thickness and also it becomes difficult to form the fluorescent substance film on the side of the light emitting element. On the other hand, in the semiconductor device according to the embodiment, the fluorescent substance film 104 is formed on the cover 103 with the flat plate shape, so that uniformity of a film thickness of the fluorescent substance film 104 can be formed well using, for example, a printing method. Further, the semiconductor device according to the embodiment has a feature in which uniformity of a light emission color or intensity of light emission is good since it is unnecessary to form the fluorescent substance film on the side of the light emitting element 102. Also, a recess part 101B for mounting the light emitting element 102 is formed in the substrate 101 and the periphery of the recess part 101B is bonded to the cover 103 and thereby the light emitting element 102 is configured to be sealed on the substrate 101. That is, space in which the light emitting element 102 is sealed is configured to be defined by the substrate 101 and the cover 103. As a result of this, the space in which the light emitting element 102 is sealed can, for example, be set in a low pressure state or be filled with inert gas and life prolongation and maintenance of quality of the light emitting element 102 can be achieved. Also, when connection between the substrate 101 and the cover 103 is made by anode bonding, space in which the light emitting element is sealed is held clean as compared with the case of being bonded by organic material such as resin, so that quality of the light emitting element 102 improves and this is preferable. Also, together with the light emitting element 102, a reflector 105 for reflecting light emission from the light emitting element 102 is installed in the space (the recess part 101B) in which the light emitting element 102 is sealed. As a result of this, it is constructed so that light emission efficiency of the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment improves. Also, the light emitting element 102 is installed on a bump (Au bump) 106 made of, for example, Au and the light emitting element 102 is electrically connected to a via plug (through wiring) 107 formed so as to pass through the bottom of the substrate 101 through the bump 106. A connection layer 108A made of, for example, a Ni/Au plated layer is formed on the side opposite to the side on which the light emitting element 102 is connected to the via plug 107 and further, a solder bump 108 is formed in the connection layer 108A. That is, by forming the via plug 107, the light emitting element 102 can easily be connected to a connection target of the outside of the space in which the light emitting element 102 is sealed. Also, a connection layer made of, for example, a Ni/Au plated layer may be formed between the bump 106 and the via plug 107, but illustration is omitted in the present drawing. Also, the reflector 105 is connected to a via plug (heat dissipation wiring) 110 passing through the substrate 101, so that heat dissipation properties of the reflector 105 improve. In this case, the via plug 110 is constructed by a structure similar to that of the via plug 107. For example, the reflector 105 is connected to the via plug 110 formed so as to pass through the bottom of the substrate 101 through a bump (Au bump) 109. A connection layer 111A made of, for example, a Ni/Au plated layer is formed on the side opposite to the side on which the reflector 105 is connected to the via plug 110 and further, a solder bump 111 is formed in the connection layer 111A. In this case, the reflector 105 provides cooling (heat dissipation) through the via plug 110. Also, when the via plug 110 (the solder bump 111) is connected to, for example, a motherboard and is constructed so that heat dissipation properties improve, this is more preferable. Also, when the substrate 101 is made of, for example, Si, it becomes easy to process the substrate 101 in a fine shape and this is preferable. For example, Si has a feature in which fine processing is easier as compared with material such as ceramic. Also, when the substrate 101 is made of Si, anode bonding can also be performed between the substrate 101 and the cover 103 made of glass (borosilicate glass). Also, an oxide film (silicon oxide film) 101A is formed on a surface of the substrate 101, and the substrate 101 is insulated from, for example, the via plugs 107, 110 or the bumps 106, 109. Next, one example of a manufacturing method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 100 will be described by following a procedure based on FIGS. 2A to 2L. However, in the following drawings, the same reference numerals are assigned to the parts described above and the description may be omitted. First, in a step shown in FIG. 2A, a substrate 101 made of, for example, Si is etched and patterned, and a recess part 101B for installing a light emitting element and via holes 107A, 110A which pass through the substrate 101 and form via plugs 107, 110 are formed. Next, in a step shown in FIG. 2B, an oxide film (may be called a silicon oxide film or a thermal oxide film) 101A is formed on a surface of the substrate 101 including an inner wall surface of the recess part 101B or inner wall surfaces of the via holes 107A, 110A by, for example, a thermal CVD method. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2C, the via plugs 107, 110 are respectively formed in the via holes 107A, 110A by, for example, a plating method of Cu (for example, a semi-additive method). Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2D, connection layers 106A, 109A, 108A, 111A made of, for example, Ni/Au are formed by, for example, a plating method. In this case, the connection layers 106A, 109A are respectively formed on the side of the recess part 101B of the via plugs 107, 110 and the connection layers 108A, 111A are respectively formed on the side opposite to the recess part 101B of the via plugs 107, 110. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2E, bumps (Au bumps) 106, 109 are respectively formed on the connection layers 106A, 109A. In addition, after the present drawing, illustration of the connection layers 106A, 109A is omitted. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2F, the oxide film 101A of a surface of a protrusion part 101C of the periphery of the recess part 101B is removed by, for example, mask etching. In a subsequent step, a cover made of glass is bonded to the portion in which the oxide film is removed by the present step. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2G, a light emitting element 102 made of, for example, an LED is installed in the recess part 101B. In this case, it is constructed so that the light emitting element 102 is electrically bonded to the bump 106 using, for example, thermal compression bonding or ultrasonic bonding and the light emitting element 102 is electrically connected to the via plug 107 through the bump 106. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2H, a reflector 105 made by forming a reflective film of Ag or Al on a surface of alloy of, for example, Fe, Ni or Co is installed in the recess part 101B. In this case, it is constructed so that the reflector 105 is bonded to the bump 109 using, for example, thermal compression bonding or ultrasonic bonding and the reflector 105 is connected to the via plug 110 through the bump 109. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2I, a fluorescent substance film 104 is patterned and formed on a cover 103 with a flat plate shape made of, for example, borosilicate glass by, for example, a printing method. In the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device according to the embodiment, the fluorescent substance film 104 is formed on the cover 103 with the flat plate shape as described above, so that uniformity of a film thickness of the fluorescent substance film 104 can be formed well using, for example, a printing method. As a result of that, uniformity of a light emission color or intensity of light emission of the semiconductor device can be improved. Also in this case, it is preferable to pattern the fluorescent substance film so that the cover 103 makes direct contact with the substrate 101 without forming the fluorescent substance film 104 on the portion in which the cover 103 is bonded to the substrate 101. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2J, the cover 103 is bonded to the substrate 101 by, for example, anode bonding and a structure in which the light emitting element 102 is sealed on the substrate 101 is formed. In this case, the anode bonding is performed by applying a high voltage between the cover 103 and the substrate 101 and increasing temperature of the cover 103 and the substrate 101. When the anode bonding is performed, Si constructing the substrate is coupled to oxygen in glass constructing the cover and bonding with good and stable bonding force is performed. Also, the feature is that impurities or gas, etc. contaminating space in which the light emitting element is sealed rarely occur unlike bonding using resin material. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2K, solder bumps 108, 111 are respectively formed in the connection layers 108A, 111A. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 2L, the substrate 101 and the cover 103 are cut by dicing and are divided into individual pieces and thereby the semiconductor device 100 described previously can be formed. Second Embodiment Also, the semiconductor device according to the invention is not limited to the structure described in the first embodiment and, for example, can be constructed variously as described below. FIG. 3 is a sectional diagram schematically showing a semiconductor device 200 according to a second embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 3, the semiconductor device 200 is a semiconductor device made by mounting a light emitting element 202 made of, for example, an LED on a substrate 201 made of, for example, Si. Also, an optically-transparent cover 203 with a flat plate shape made of, for example, glass is installed above the light emitting element 202, and a fluorescent substance film 204 is formed on the cover 203. In this case, the substrate 201, the light emitting element 202, the cover 203 and the fluorescent substance film 204 according to the present embodiment correspond to the substrate 101, the light emitting element 102, the cover 103 and the fluorescent substance film 104 of the case of the first embodiment, and the semiconductor device 200 according to the embodiment has an effect similar to that of the semiconductor device 100. That is, in the semiconductor device 200, resin etc. including a fluorescent substance or the fluorescent substance film are not applied to the light emitting element (LED) directly, so that heat dissipation of the light emitting element 202 improves and an influence of reduction in quality by heat generation of the light emitting element is suppressed. Also, an influence in which the fluorescent substance film 204 deteriorates by irradiation etc. with ultraviolet rays or heat dissipation from the light emitting element 202 is suppressed and a life can be prolonged while increasing quality of the semiconductor device. Also, the semiconductor device 200 according to the embodiment has a feature in which uniformity of a film thickness of the fluorescent substance film is good since the fluorescent substance film is formed on the cover 203 with a substantially flat plate shape by, for example, a printing method. That is, in the semiconductor device according to the embodiment, the fluorescent substance film 204 is formed on the cover 203 with the flat plate shape, so that uniformity of a film thickness of the fluorescent substance film 204 can be formed well using, for example, a printing method. Further, the semiconductor device according to the embodiment has a feature in which uniformity of a light emission color or intensity of light emission is good since it is unnecessary to form the fluorescent substance film on the side of the light emitting element 202. Also, the light emitting element 202 is installed on a bump (Au bump) 206 made of, for example, Au and the light emitting element 202 is electrically connected to a via plug (through wiring) 207 formed so as to pass through the bottom of the substrate 201 through the bump 206. A connection layer 208A made of, for example, a Ni/Au plated layer is formed on the side opposite to the side on which the light emitting element 202 is connected to the via plug 207 and further, a solder bump 208 is formed in the connection layer 208A. That is, by forming the via plug 207, the light emitting element 202 can easily be connected to a connection target of the outside of space in which the light emitting element 202 is sealed. Also, a connection layer made of, for example, a Ni/Au plated layer may be formed between the bump 206 and the via plug 207, but illustration is omitted in the present drawing. Also, an oxide film (silicon oxide film) 201A is formed on a surface of the substrate 201, and the substrate 201 is insulated from, for example, the via plug 207 or the bump 206. The semiconductor device 200 according to the embodiment differs from the semiconductor device 100 of the first embodiment in the following points and has an effect peculiar to the present embodiment. The semiconductor device 200 according to the embodiment has a reflector 205 (corresponding to the reflector 105) for reflecting light emission from the light emitting element 202 and also, the reflector 205 defines seal space 201B for sealing the light emitting element 202 together with the substrate 201 and the cover 203. In this case, one end of the reflector 205 is bonded to the substrate 201 by a bonding layer 210 made of, for example, Au formed on the substrate 201. Also, the other end of the reflector 205 is bonded to the cover 203 by a bonding layer 209 made of, for example, Au. That is, the reflector 205 is bonded to both of the substrate 201 and the cover 203 and thereby the seal space 201B in which the light emitting element 202 is sealed is formed. As a result of this, the seal space 201B can, for example, be set in a low pressure state or be filled with inert gas and life prolongation and maintenance of quality of the light emitting element 202 can be achieved. Also, it may be constructed by a structure (structure similar to the first embodiment) in which heat dissipation properties of the reflector 205 improve by forming heat dissipation wiring corresponding to the via plug 110 described in the first embodiment in the substrate 201 and connecting the wiring to the reflector 205. The semiconductor device 200 according to the embodiment has a feature in which a structure (shape) of the substrate 201 is simpler than that of the substrate 101 and processing of the substrate 201 is facilitated. Also, since the reflector is configured to be exposed to the outside air, there is a merit in which heat dissipation properties are better than those of the semiconductor device 100. Next, one example of a manufacturing method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 200 will be described by following a procedure based on FIGS. 5A to 5M. However, in the following drawings, the same reference numerals are assigned to the parts described above and the description may be omitted. First, in a step shown in FIG. 4A, a substrate 201 made of, for example, Si is etched and patterned, and a via hole 207A which passes through the substrate 201 and form a via plug 207 is formed. Next, in a step shown in FIG. 4B, an oxide film (may be called a silicon oxide film or a thermal oxide film) 201A is formed on a surface of the substrate 201 including an inner wall surface of the via hole 207A by, for example, a thermal CVD method. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4C, the via plug 207 is formed in the via hole 207A by, for example, a plating method of Cu (for example, a semi-additive method). Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4D, connection layers 206A, 208A made of, for example, Ni/Au are formed with respect to the via plug 207 by, for example, a plating method. In this case, with respect to the via plug 207, the connection layer 206A is formed on a first side on which a light emitting element is mounted in a subsequent step and the connection layer 208A is formed on a second side opposite to the first side. Also, a bonding layer 210 made of, for example, Au for bonding a reflector in a subsequent step is formed on the first side of the substrate 201 by a sputtering method or a plating method, etc. In addition, after the present drawing, illustration of the connection layers 206A, 208A is omitted. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4E, a bump (Au bump) 206 is formed on the connection layer 206A. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4F, a light emitting element 202 made of, for example, an LED is installed in the substrate 201. In this case, it is constructed so that the light emitting element 202 is electrically bonded to the bump 206 using, for example, thermal compression bonding or ultrasonic bonding and the light emitting element 202 is electrically connected to the via plug 207 through the bump 206. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4G, the substrate 201 is cut by dicing and the substrate 201 in which the light emitting element 202 is mounted is divided into individual pieces. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4H, a fluorescent substance film 204 is patterned and formed on a cover 203 with a flat plate shape made of, for example, borosilicate glass by, for example, a printing method. In the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device according to the embodiment, the fluorescent substance film 204 is formed on the cover 203 with the flat plate shape as described above, so that uniformity of a film thickness of the fluorescent substance film 204 can be formed well using, for example, a printing method. As a result of that, uniformity of a light emission color or intensity of light emission of the semiconductor device can be improved. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4I, a bonding layer 209 made of, for example, Au for bonding a reflector 205 in a subsequent step is formed on the cover 203 by, for example, a sputtering method. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4J, the reflector 205 made by forming a reflective film of Ag or Al on a surface of alloy of, for example, Fe, Ni or Co is bonded to the bonding layer 209. In this case, the reflector 205 is bonded to the bonding layer 209 using, for example, thermal compression bonding or ultrasonic bonding. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4K, the reflector 205 bonded to the cover 203 is bonded to the substrate 201 in which the light emitting element 202 is mounted. In this case, the reflector 205 is bonded to the bonding layer 210 using, for example, thermal compression bonding or ultrasonic bonding. In this manner, seal space 201B in which the light emitting element 202 is sealed is formed, and the light emitting element 202 is sealed on the substrate 201. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4L, a solder bump 208 is formed in the connection layer 208A. Then, in a step shown in FIG. 4M, the cover 203 is cut by dicing and is divided into individual pieces and thereby the semiconductor device 200 described previously can be formed. In the semiconductor device 200 manufactured by the embodiment, a structure (shape) of the substrate 201 is simpler than that of the substrate 101 and also the reflector is configured to be exposed to the outside air, so that the semiconductor device 200 has a feature in which heat dissipation properties are better than those of the semiconductor device 100. Also, in the embodiments described above, the case where the light emitting element is mainly an LED has been described as an example, but it is not limited to this case and it is apparent that the invention can also be applied to other light emitting elements. Also, the invention can be applied by replacing the light emitting element with a light receiving element and in this case, a film formed on the covers 103, 203 can be used as, for example, a filter. Further, the invention can be applied to a semiconductor device 300 in which as shown in FIG. 6, instead of the reflector, a Si substrate 301 has a recess part with a tapered section 301A and a reflective film 305 is formed on an inner side surface of the recess part of the substrate 301. As described above, the invention has been described based on the preferred embodiments, but the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made within the gist described in the claims. According to the invention, a high-quality semiconductor device, in which a light emitting element is mounted, for suppressing variations in light emission while suppressing an influence of reduction in quality by heat generation of the light emitting element can be provided.
