Abstract

A light emitting device for enhancing emission efficiency and color rendering, comprising: a light source; a first emitting section having a luminescent material emitting light including a wavelength component longer than that of light from the light source when excited by the light from the light source; a second emitting section having a luminescent material emitting light including a wavelength component longer than that of the light from the first emitting section when excited by the lights from the light source and the first emitting section; and a light exit side from which the light from the light source, the first light-emitting section and the second light-emitting section emerges outside; and the first emitting section and the second emitting section are opened at the light exit side, and an area of a boundary surface between the first emitting section and the second emitting section is equal to or less than fifty percent of the surface area of the first emitting section.
