Abstract: A light emitting device includes a light emitting element, a terminal substrate and a fixing member. The light emitting element is a semiconductor laminate having a first semiconductor layer, a light emitting layer, and a second semiconductor layer that are laminated in that order, a first electrode connected to the first semiconductor layer, and a second electrode connected to the second semiconductor layer. The terminal substrate includes a pair of terminals connected to the first electrode and the second electrode, and an insulator layer that fixes the terminals. At least a part of the outer edges of the terminal substrate is disposed more to a center of the light emitting device than the outer edges of the semiconductor laminate. The fixing member fixes the light emitting element and the terminal substrate.
