Abstract: A light emitting device includes at least one light emitting element to emit a first light having a first peak emission wavelength in a range of 420 nm to 480 nm and at least one fluorescent material to convert the first light to a second light having a second fluorescent peak wavelength in a range of 610 nm to 750 nm. The second light has chromaticity existing in an enclosed area in a CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram in which chromaticity is defined by x and y coordinates. The enclosed area is enclosed with a first straight line, a second straight line, a third straight line, and a curved line.
