Abstract

A light emitting apparatus comprises a light emitting element which has one of main surfaces thereof being used as a light emitting surface and a plurality of side faces having different areas, and a support member which has a recess with metallic members provided on the side wall surfaces thereof for reflecting the light emitted by the light emitting element. The light emitting element is placed in the recess so that the distance between the metallic member and a side face having the largest surface area among the plurality of side faces of the light emitting element is larger than the distance between the metallic member and the other side face.
