Abstract: The semiconductor light emitting device is composed of a combination of a near ultraviolet LED and a phosphor layer including a plurality of phosphors for absorbing near ultraviolet emitted by the near ultraviolet LED and for emitting fluorescence having an emission peak in a visible wavelength region, and the phosphor layer includes four kinds of phosphors, that is, a blue-based phosphor, a green-based phosphor, a red-based phosphor and a yellow-based phosphor. Thus, lowering of luminous flux derived from red-based light with low luminosity is compensated by yellow-based light with comparatively high luminosity, and the resultant white-based light can be well color balanced, and hence, a semiconductor light emitting device emitting white-based light with high luminous flux and a large Ra can be obtained.

Abstract: In a light emitting diode, a scattering material-containing light guiding/scattering layer is provided which directly receives light emitted from a light emitting element. The scattering material contained in the light guiding/scattering layer irregularly reflects and scatters the incident light. The scattered light is led to a fluorescence emitting layer formed of a transparent binder containing a phosphor material. The probability of incidence of light having high optical density, which has been emitted from the light emitting element, directly to the phosphor material contained in the fluorescence emitting layer is lowered, and light can be radiated from the whole fluorescence emitting layer. Therefore, uniform light having a desired color can be radiated with high efficiency from the light emitting diode.
