It is composed of a hole for external wiring through which external wiring passes and a first phosphor-containing sealing resin layer 5.
FIG. 2 shows the reflection layer, the wiring pattern, and the like of the light emitting device of the present embodiment. Alumina substrate 1, Wiring pattern 2 on alumina substrate, Chip mounting part 41, Positive electrode external connection land 101, Negative electrode external connection land 91, Mounting part 13, Bonding wire positioning or chip mounting position guide pattern 42, Alumina substrate back surface It is composed of a reflective layer 44 formed on the surface.
Next, with reference to FIGS. 3A to 3E, a method for manufacturing the light emitting device 1000 is shown below. (a) Alumina substrate 1 Ag-Nd alloy thickness 0.1 mm is formed as a reflective layer 44 on one side with a thickness of 1 mm by a sputtering method. Then, a substantially rectangular pattern is formed by a photoetching method. If the reflective layer 44 has a thickness of about 0.1 mm, the effect as a reflective layer can be further obtained. Further, by using an alloy such as Ag-Nd, aggregation of Ag can be suppressed and a decrease in reflectance can be prevented.
Further, a gold film thickness of 0.07 mm is formed on the upper surface of the alumina substrate 1 having a thickness of 1 mm by using a sputtering method. After that, the wiring pattern shape 2 (width 1 mm, interval 2 mm) is formed by a photo-etching method. Here, the wiring pattern shape 2 is formed at a position that substantially matches the shape of the reflective layer 44, but the reflective layer 44 is formed so as to come out at least from the outermost peripheral shape of the wiring pattern shape 2. It is preferable that By forming in this way, the light from each LED chip provided between the wiring patterns can uniformly obtain the effect of the reflective layer, and it is possible to avoid the occurrence of color shift. (b) Fix the LED chip 3 (short side width 0.24 mm, long side 0.48 mm, thickness 0.14 mm) on the alumina substrate using epoxy resin. The LED chip 3 and the wiring pattern 2 are electrically connected using the bonding wire W. (c) A substantially rectangular silicone rubber sheet 4 is brought into close contact with the alumina substrate 1. (d) Next, a sealing resin containing a phosphor is injected into the silicone rubber sheet 4, and the sealing resin containing the phosphor is thermoset to form the first phosphor-containing sealing resin layer 5. To do.
More specifically, the weight ratio of the following fluorescent substance and silicone resin, which is a translucent resin, is 5: so that light with (x, y) = (0.345, 0.35) can be obtained in the CIE chromaticity table. After injecting the mixture so as to be 100 into the silicone rubber sheet 4, it is cured at a temperature of 150 ° C. for 60 minutes to form the first phosphor-containing sealing resin layer 5. The chromaticity range is set to emit yellow light in the region (b) of FIG. 4, for example. Further, the chromaticity range is an example of a preferable range in the present embodiment, and is not limited to this, and is appropriately changed according to the luminosity of the light to be extracted. The same applies to the following embodiments. (e) After that, the silicone rubber sheet 4 is removed to form the light emitting portion 1001.
FIG. 19 shows a schematic view of the silicone rubber sheet 4. It consists of a region 45 into which a translucent resin containing a phosphor is injected. Therefore, the silicone rubber sheet 4 has a function like a dam (prevents resin leakage) when the translucent resin containing a phosphor is applied. Therefore, the silicone rubber sheet 4 has a feature that can be called a dam sheet. Moreover, the dam sheet can be used many times. Further, by changing the shape of the dam sheet, the shape of the light emitting portion (shape of the phosphor layer) can be easily changed in various ways.
Next, the effect of the present invention applied to a light emitting device using a phosphor will be described. 23 (a) and 23 (b) are schematic views in which the cross-sectional view of the first embodiment is partially emphasized. As shown in FIG. 23 (a), in the present embodiment, the light from the LED chip is reflected directly or by the reflective layer and collides with the phosphor, which excites the phosphor to emit yellow light. That is, the light leaking to the substrate by this reflective layer is reflected by the reflective layer and passes through the phosphor-containing sealing resin layer, so that the light is more efficiently converted into yellow light by the phosphor, and thus the color rendering property. It becomes a high light emitting device.
Further, the phosphor may settle in the sealing resin (Fig. 23 (b)), but since the present invention reflects light from the substrate side, even in that case, it cannot be excited without the reflective layer. It is possible to excite even a phosphor.
Therefore, in the light emitting device using a phosphor as in the present embodiment, since the light is effectively utilized to excite the phosphor, for example, as a light emitting device for a lighting device in which a strong yellow light bulb color is desired. Suitable. Although FIG. 23 shows an embodiment in which the reflective layer is provided on the back surface of the substrate, the same effect can be obtained in the embodiment described later in which the reflective layer is provided inside the substrate.
In addition, when the substrate is etched and a reflective layer is provided in the recess, the reflective layer fits in the recess, and it is possible to avoid mechanical damage (scratches, wear) when attaching the light emitting device. is there.
In addition, by making the wiring pattern shape 2 parallel and providing an LED chip loading area between the wiring patterns, it is possible to freely determine the mounting pitch of the LED chips in the direction parallel to the wiring pattern, and the brightness of the light emitting device can be adjusted. You can easily adjust the chromaticity and take measures to dissipate heat.
In the present embodiment, the outer shape of the light emitting device 1000 is substantially square, and the shape of the light emitting unit 1001 is substantially rectangular, but it may be circular, elliptical, or the like.
Further, as a specific material for forming the phosphor layer, a transparent resin having excellent weather resistance such as epoxy resin, urea resin, and silicone resin, and a translucent inorganic material such as silica sol and glass having excellent light resistance are preferable. Used for. Further, a diffusing agent may be contained together with the phosphor. As a specific diffusing agent, barium titanate, titanium oxide, aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, calcium carbonate, silicon dioxide and the like are preferably used.
As an application example of the lighting equipment manufactured by using the light emitting device 1000, FIG. 16 shows a schematic diagram of a fluorescent lamp type LED lamp 8000, and FIG. 18 shows a schematic diagram of a light bulb type LED lamp 8002.
As described above, as the LED chip, a blue LED chip in which a gallium nitride-based light emitting portion is formed on a sapphire substrate is used. However, the blue LED chip made of a gallium nitride compound semiconductor is not limited to the blue LED chip made of a gallium nitride based compound semiconductor, and a blue LED chip made of a ZnO (zinc oxide) compound semiconductor may be used on the GaN substrate. Needless to say, an LED chip of an InGaAlP-based or AlGaAs-based compound semiconductor may be used.
As the phosphor, a Ce: YAG (cerium-activated yttrium aluminum garnet) phosphor, an Eu: BOSE or SOSE (europium-activated strontium garnet) phosphor, a europium-activated α-sialone phosphor, or the like can be preferably used.
When forming the resin encapsulant, the encapsulant resin for molding may be dropped. Further, the resin encapsulant may be formed by using a mold, and as the shape of the resin encapsulant, the resin encapsulant is formed into, for example, a hemispherical shape that is convex upward. It is also possible to give the function as a lens.
Further, the LED chip can be adhered with a thermosetting resin or the like. Specific examples thereof include epoxy resin, acrylic resin and imide resin.
A P-side electrode and an N-side electrode were formed on one surface of the LED chip, and two wire bonding was performed with the surface as the upper surface. Further, although the LED chip shows blue light emission, the light emission color is not limited to this, and for example, one that emits ultraviolet light or one that emits green light may be used. In addition, the method of converting the light emitted from the LED chip with a phosphor to obtain white color was shown, but for example, using LED chips of three colors of red, green, and blue without using a phosphor, white, light bulb color, etc. You may obtain the color required for lighting.
The substrate may be a ceramic substrate other than alumina. Both substrates have small thermal expansion, good thermal conductivity, and are more excellent in thermal conductivity for applications that require higher heat dissipation and heat resistance, so that a large current can be supplied as a drive current. Furthermore, the reliability of the LED chip can be improved, and deterioration of the phosphor due to heat from the LED chip can be suppressed.
In particular, since the ceramic substrate has high insulating properties, it is not necessary to form an insulating layer on the substrate, which facilitates production. Further, it is not necessary to secure a creepage distance between the side surface of the wiring pattern and the side surface of the LED chip.
Furthermore, the wiring pattern can be formed directly on the ceramic substrate, and no solder resist is required. The problem of discoloration of the solder resist that occurs when the wiring is thermally connected with solder or the like is eliminated. Further, the problem of discoloration of the solder resist due to heat generation of the light emitting element is eliminated.
In any case, the substrate suitable for mounting the LED chip causes light to leak from the mounted LED chip to the substrate.

Therefore, the light emitting unit 1002 is manufactured. The light emitting device of the present embodiment can effectively utilize the light leaking from the substrate side as in the first embodiment.

The light emitting device of the present embodiment has a plurality of reflective layers, and can effectively utilize the light leaking from the substrate side with higher accuracy than the first and second embodiments. Further, when a eutectic chip can be used for the first reflection layer and the phosphor emits yellow light, a light emitting device having a light bulb color having a stronger yellow light can be manufactured.
