    摘要: An ultraviolet light emitting device having high quality and high reliability is provided by preventing deterioration of electrical characteristics which is associated with an ultraviolet light emission operation and caused by a sealing resin. The ultraviolet light emitting device is an ultraviolet light emitting device including: an ultraviolet light emitting element (2) composed of a nitride semiconductor; and an ultraviolet-transparent sealing resin (3) covering the ultraviolet light emitting element (2), wherein at least a specific portion (3a) of the sealing resin (3), which is in contact with pad electrodes (16) and (17) of the ultraviolet light emitting element (2), is a first type amorphous fluororesin, a terminal functional group of a polymer or a copolymer that forms the first type amorphous fluororesin is a COOH group or a COOR group which is a reactive terminal functional group bondable to a metal that forms the pad electrodes (16) and (17), and a light emission wavelength range in the ultraviolet light emitting element (2) exists on a longer-wavelength side as compared to the long-wavelength edge of an absorption wavelength range in the amorphous fluororesin.
