- Lens surface 14M is formed concave toward upper surface 14A.
- Lens surface 14M is formed above an imaginary plane that includes and is parallel to lower surface 14B.
- Lens surface 14M is a concave lens surface that is concave upward from lower surface 14B.
- Lens surface 14M is a cylindrical lens surface. Therefore, lens surface 14M has no curvature in a certain direction. In other words, lens surface 14M has zero curvature in this certain direction. Note that lens surface 14M does not have to be a cylindrical lens surface that has no curvature in a certain direction in the strict sense. Due to manufacturing reasons, it is possible that the lens surface 14M may have a slight curvature in this certain direction. In the illustrated lens surface 14M of the lid body 14, the direction in which it has substantially no curvature is the same as the X direction.

- the distance from the bottom surface 14B of the lid 14 to the optical axis of the lens surface 14M is 20% or more and 60% or less of the width (thickness) from the top surface 14A to the bottom surface 14B of the lid 14.
- the greater this distance the larger the area over which the lens surface 14M is formed can be secured, making it easier for light to be incident on the lens surface 14M.
- the thickness of the lid 14 is not constant but varies, the thinner parts may be more susceptible to damage than the thicker parts. Taking these factors into consideration, the above-mentioned range of 20% or more and 60% or less may be an example of an appropriate numerical range for the shape of the lid 14 shown in the figure.
- the width of lens surface 14M of lid body 14 is 30% or more and 80% or less of the width of lid body 14.
- the larger this width of lens surface 14M the easier it is for light to be incident on lens surface 14M.
- the larger this width of lens surface 14M the lower the overall strength of lid body 14 may be. Taking these factors into consideration, the above-mentioned range of 30% or more and 80% or less may be an example of an appropriate numerical range for the shape of lid body 14 shown in the figure.
- the width of lens surface 14M of lid body 14 is 20% or more and 70% or less of the width of lid body 14.

- the width of lens surface 14M in the first direction is larger than the width of lens surface 14M in the second direction.
- the optical axis LA of lens surface 14M does not overlap with the midpoint of the width of lid body 14 in the first direction.
- the optical axis LA of lens surface 14M is located in one of the regions when lid body 14 is divided into two regions by a line that passes through the midpoint of the width of lid body 14 in the first direction and is parallel to the second direction. Furthermore, when this one region is further divided into two regions by a line that passes through the midpoint of the width of this one region in the first direction and is parallel to the second direction, the optical axis LA of lens surface 14M is located in region R1 closer to the midpoint of the width of lid body 14 in the first direction.

- the one or more first inner surfaces 14D1 include a first inner surface 14D1 located at an end of the lens surface 14M in the positive Y direction and intersecting with a side extending in the second direction. Furthermore, the one or more first inner surfaces 14D1 include a first inner surface 14D1 located at an end of the lens surface 14M in the negative Y direction and intersecting with a side extending in the second direction. For example, if the positive Y direction is the first direction, the negative Y direction can be said to be the direction opposite to the first direction.
- the width of the first inner surface 14D1 is more than 0% and not more than 30% of the distance from the bottom surface 14B of the lid body 14 to the optical axis LA of the lens surface 14M. As this width of the first inner surface 14D1 increases, the lid body 14 becomes thinner, so it may be preferable not to make this width too large. Alternatively, if one tries to maintain the thickness of the lid body 14, the width of the lens surface 14M in the first direction will become smaller. For the shape of the lid body 14 shown in the figure, it may be preferable to make the width of the first inner surface 14D1 not more than 30%.
- the or each first inner surface 14D1 extends vertically upward relative to the bottom surface 14B. Note that "vertical” here includes a difference of ⁇ 5 degrees.

- the light emitted from the semiconductor laser element 20 is incident on the lens surface 14M of the lid 14 and is emitted from the upper surface 14A, but in light-emitting device 2, the light emitted from the semiconductor laser element 20 is incident on the lower surface 14B of the lid 14 and is emitted from the lens surface 14M. Therefore, the light emitted from the semiconductor laser element 20 is emitted from the lens surface 14M instead of being incident on the lens surface 14M.
- the lens surface 14M By providing the lens surface 14M on the upper surface 14A side, the area where the lower surface 14B of the lid 14 and the second upper surface 11C of the base overlap in a top view becomes larger than that of the light emitting device 1. Furthermore, when bonding the base 11 and the lid 14, it is not necessary to consider the possibility that the adhesive will come into contact with the lens surface 14M. On the other hand, if the lens surface 14M is provided on the upper surface 14A side, the size of the lens surface 14M that must be secured to allow light to pass becomes larger than that of the light emitting device 1. Furthermore, due to differences in the optical path length until the light is incident on the lens surface 14M, even if the spread angle of the light that has passed through the lens surface 14M is the same, the mode of diffusion will differ. Taking these points into consideration, it can be determined whether the configuration of the light emitting device 1 or the configuration of the light emitting device 2 is preferable.
