Patent ID: 8124998

Claim:
A light emitting device package comprising: a light emitting device; a submount adhered to the light emitting device and electrically connected to the light emitting device; first and second electrodes disposed a predetermined distance from each other and respectively adhered to the submount to be electrically connected to the submount; a package housing disposed below the submount and interposed between the first and second electrodes to electrically insulate the first and second electrodes from each other; and reflective layers respectively coated on top surfaces of the first and second electrodes on which the submount is adhered, wherein the package housing is made of a heat-resistant insulating material, and the package housing further supports the first and second electrodes on an outer side of the first and second electrodes opposed to an inner side of the first and second electrodes disposed the predetermined distance from each other, wherein the first and second electrodes are configured for applying a current or voltage to the light emitting device, and dissipating heat generated by the light emitting device in a direction below the light emitting device, and having a vertical structure formed through the package housing to have a determined cross-sectional area in a formation direction, and wherein each of the first and second electrodes has a first portion overlapping the light emitting device and a second portion not overlapping the submount, the first and second portions formed across substantially an entire thickness direction of the package housing.
