A semiconductor apparatus according to the present invention comprises a
support member that has a recessed portion, one pair of positive and
negative conductive wiring members that are provided on the support
member, a semiconductor device that is electrically connected to the
conductive wiring members and is disposed in the recessed portion, and a
coating member that seals at least the semiconductor device. Side walls
of the recessed portion has a first side wall 105 that surrounds the
semiconductor device 103, and the second side wall 106 that protrudes
from the first side wall. At least a first wall surface 106a in the
bottom side of the recessed portion in wall surfaces of the second side
wall 106 is coated with a metallic material. Consequently, a highly
reliable semiconductor apparatus with improved light-outgoing efficiency
is provided.
