Patent attributes
A semiconductor light emitting device includes a mount section having an insulating property connected to a heat sink, a plurality of semiconductor laser elements disposed on the mount section, and a heat radiation block having an insulating property disposed on the plurality of semiconductor laser elements. A first wiring made of a metal is disposed on an upper surface of the mount section, and a second wiring made of a metal is disposed on a lower surface of the heat radiation block, a part of the second wiring being electrically connected to the first wiring. By electrically connecting the first wiring and the second wiring to each of the plurality of semiconductor laser elements, the plurality of semiconductor laser elements are connected in series, and have a same polarity with each other at a side that each of the plurality of semiconductor laser elements is connected to the first wiring.
