Here, the semiconductor light emitting device refers to a semiconductor optical device that generates light through recombination of electrons and holes, for example, a group III nitride semiconductor light emitting device. The group III nitride semiconductor consists of a compound of Al (x) Ga (y) In (1-x-y) N (0 ≦ x ≦ 1, 0 ≦ y ≦ 1, 0 ≦ x + y ≦ 1). In addition, GaAs type semiconductor light emitting elements used for red light emission, etc. are mentioned.

It is a photograph. It can be seen that light does not come out evenly due to poor bonding of the wire.
In order to solve this problem, a light emitting device in which two bonding pads are attached to each other is introduced, but there is a problem in that current concentration occurs between the bonding pads located on opposite sides.
This will be described later in the Specification for Implementation of the Invention.
