Description

Phosphor sheet, LED chip and LED package using same, method for manufacturing LED package, and light-emitting device, backlight module, and display each including LED package
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a phosphor sheet, an LED chip and an LED package using the same, a method for manufacturing the LED package, and a light-emitting device, a backlight module, and a display including the LED package.
Background
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) have been rapidly expanding in market not only in backlight applications of Liquid Crystal displays (LCDs, Liquid Crystal displays) and in vehicle-mounted fields such as headlights of vehicles but also in general illumination applications, due to their features such as low power consumption, long life, and design, on the background of their remarkable improvement in Light emission efficiency. Since the environmental load of LEDs is also low, it is expected that LEDs will form a huge market in the general illumination field in the future.
The emission spectrum of the LED depends on the semiconductor material forming the LED chip, and thus its emission color is limited. Therefore, in order to obtain white light for use in backlights and general illumination of LCDs using LEDs, it is necessary to arrange inorganic phosphors suitable for the respective chips on the LED chips and convert the emission wavelengths. Specifically, a method of providing a yellow phosphor on a blue light-emitting LED chip, a method of providing a red phosphor and a green phosphor on a blue light-emitting LED chip, and the like have been proposed.
As one of specific methods for providing a phosphor on an LED chip, a method of attaching a phosphor-containing sheet (hereinafter referred to as "phosphor sheet") to an LED chip has been proposed (for example, see patent documents 1 to 4). This method makes it easier to keep the amount of the phosphor disposed on the LED chip constant, compared with a method in which a phosphor composition obtained by dispersing a phosphor in a resin is dispensed onto an LED chip and cured, which has been put into practical use. As a result, the white LED obtained is excellent in that the color and luminance can be made uniform.

Disclosure of Invention
Problems to be solved by the invention
When the method of attaching the phosphor sheet to the LED chip is used, the following processing needs to be performed: cutting processing when the phosphor sheet is cut into the size of the LED chip; drilling of the portion of the phosphor sheet corresponding to the electrode portion or the like on the LED chip; and so on. Therefore, a phosphor sheet having excellent processability is required.
On the other hand, the phosphor sheet is required to have adhesiveness for being stuck on the LED chip. Patent document 4 discloses: by using a silicone composition containing a specific organopolysiloxane, a phosphor sheet having excellent workability before being bonded to an LED chip and excellent adhesiveness when bonded to an LED chip can be obtained. However, this phosphor sheet has insufficient curability after being bonded to the LED chip, and therefore satisfactory adhesiveness is not obtained. Therefore, the LED chip to which the phosphor sheet is attached has a problem that the luminance is reduced due to poor adhesiveness.
In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a phosphor sheet that achieves both workability such as cutting and adhesiveness to an LED chip.
Means for solving the problems
Specifically, the present invention is a phosphor sheet comprising a phosphor and a silicone resin, wherein the storage elastic modulus G ' at 25 ℃ of the phosphor sheet is 0.01MPa or more, the storage elastic modulus G ' at 100 ℃ is less than 0.01MPa, and the storage elastic modulus G ' at 140 ℃ is 0.05MPa or more.
ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECTS OF INVENTION
According to the present invention, a phosphor sheet having excellent workability such as cutting and having good adhesiveness to an LED chip can be provided.

Detailed Description
Preferred embodiments of the phosphor sheet, the LED chip and the LED package using the same, the method for manufacturing the LED package, and the light-emitting device, the backlight module, and the display including the LED package according to the present invention will be described below in detail. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and can be carried out with various modifications according to the purpose and application.
< phosphor sheet >
A phosphor sheet according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a phosphor and a silicone resin, and has a storage elastic modulus G ' at 25 ℃ of 0.01MPa or more, a storage elastic modulus G ' at 100 ℃ of less than 0.01MPa, and a storage elastic modulus G ' at 140 ℃ of 0.05MPa or more.
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention has sufficient elasticity at room temperature (25 ℃) by setting the storage elastic modulus G' at 25 ℃ to 0.01MPa or more. Therefore, the phosphor sheet is cut so that the periphery of the cut portion is not deformed against a rapid shearing stress such as cutting by the blade, and workability with high dimensional accuracy can be obtained.
The upper limit of the storage elastic modulus G' at 25 ℃ is not particularly limited, but is preferably 2.0MPa or less from the viewpoint of ease of handling of the sample.
In the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention, the storage elastic modulus G' at 100 ℃ is made smaller than 0.01MPa, whereby the sheet has sufficient viscosity at 100 ℃ and high fluidity. Therefore, by attaching the phosphor sheet having the physical properties to the LED chip while heating at 100 ℃ or higher, the phosphor sheet quickly flows and deforms following the shape of the light emitting surface of the LED chip, and thus high adhesion between the phosphor sheet and the LED chip can be obtained. This improves the light extraction performance of light extracted from the LED chip, thereby improving the luminance.
The lower limit of the storage elastic modulus G' at 100 ℃ is not particularly limited, but when the fluidity of the phosphor sheet is too high when the phosphor sheet is heated and bonded to the LED chip, the shape processed by cutting or punching before bonding cannot be maintained at the time of bonding, and therefore, it is preferably 0.005MPa or more.
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention can stably operate the LED chip finally by setting the storage elastic modulus G' at 140 ℃ to 0.05MPa or more. When the phosphor sheet having the physical properties is heated at 140 ℃ or higher, complete curing of the sheet is rapidly completed, and the entire resin is integrated, so that the adhesiveness between the phosphor sheet and the LED chip is improved. Thereby, the luminance of the LED package is also improved. In addition, since the interface portion between the LED chip and the phosphor sheet is less susceptible to the heat generated when the LED is turned on, the separation of the LED chip and the phosphor sheet is suppressed. Therefore, the reliability of the LED package is improved.
Here, the storage elastic modulus G 'is a storage elastic modulus G' when a dynamic viscoelasticity of the phosphor sheet is measured (temperature dependence) using a rheometer. The dynamic viscoelasticity is a method of analyzing dynamic mechanical properties of a material by expressing shear stress when a material reaches a steady state when shear strain is applied to the material at a certain sinusoidal frequency, decomposing the shear stress into a component (elastic component) in which strain and phase are aligned and a component (viscous component) in which strain and phase are different by 90 °.
For the dynamic viscoelasticity measurement (temperature dependence), the dynamic viscoelasticity measurement can be performed using a general viscosity/viscoelasticity measurement device. In the present invention, the values are values when measurement is performed under the following conditions.
A measuring device: viscosity/viscoelasticity measuring apparatus HAAKE MARSIII
(Thermo Fisher SCIENTIFIC)
The measurement conditions were as follows: OSC temperature dependence determination
Geometry: parallel round plate type (20mm)
Measuring time: 1980 seconds
Angular frequency: 1Hz
Angular velocity: 6.2832 rad/sec
Temperature range: 25 to 200 ℃ (with low temperature control function)
Temperature rise rate: 0.08333 deg.C/sec
Sample shape: circular (diameter 18mm)
Sample thickness: more than 50 μm.
When the thickness of the measurement sample is 50 μm or more, the dynamic viscoelasticity measurement can be stably performed. When the sample thickness is less than 50 μm, several sheets may be stacked and heated and pressure-bonded on a heating plate at 100 ℃ to produce an integrated film (sheet) and thereby produce a sample having a desired thickness.
The amount of the stress component whose phase matches the shear strain divided by the shear strain is the storage elastic modulus G'. The storage elastic modulus G' represents the elasticity of the material with respect to dynamic strain at each temperature, and is related to the hardness of the phosphor sheet. Therefore, the storage elastic modulus G' at each measurement temperature affects the following properties of the phosphor sheet. For example, the storage elastic modulus G' at 25 ℃ affects the processability of the phosphor sheet, the fluidity and adhesiveness of the phosphor sheet at 100 ℃ and the curability and adhesiveness of the phosphor sheet at 140 ℃.
The thickness of the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 μm or more and 1000 μm or less. The lower limit is more preferably 30 μm or more. The upper limit is more preferably 200 μm or less, still more preferably 100 μm or less, and still more preferably 50 μm or less. The phosphor sheet has a thickness of 1000 μm or less, and is particularly excellent in crack resistance, and has a thickness of 200 μm or less, and is particularly excellent in heat resistance.
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention may be a laminate including other layers as necessary. Examples of the other layer include a substrate and a barrier layer.
(Silicone resin)
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention mainly contains a silicone resin from the viewpoint of transparency and heat resistance.
As the silicone resin used in the present invention, a curable silicone resin is preferred. The curable silicone resin may be any of one-pack type and two-pack type (three-pack type). The curable silicone resin includes, as types that undergo condensation reaction by moisture in the air or a catalyst, dealcoholization types, deoximation types, deacetylation types, dehydroxylation types, and the like. There is also an addition reaction type in which a hydrosilylation reaction occurs by a catalyst. Any of these types of curable silicone resins may be used. In particular, an addition reaction type silicone resin is more preferable in terms of no by-product accompanying the curing reaction, small curing shrinkage, and easy acceleration of curing by heating.
For example, the addition reaction type silicone resin is formed by a hydrosilylation reaction of a compound containing an alkenyl group bonded to a silicon atom and a compound having a hydrogen atom bonded to a silicon atom.
Examples of the "compound having an alkenyl group bonded to a silicon atom" include vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, allyltrimethoxysilane, propenyltrimethoxysilane, norbornenyltrimethoxysilane, octenyltrimethoxysilane and the like. Examples of the "compound having a hydrogen atom bonded to a silicon atom" include methylhydrogenpolysiloxane, dimethylpolysiloxane-CO-methylhydrogenpolysiloxane, ethylhydrogenpolysiloxane, methylhydrogenpolysiloxane-CO-methylphenylpolysiloxane, and the like. Examples of the addition reaction type silicone rubber include rubbers formed by hydrosilylation of such materials. Further, as the silicone resin, a known resin such as that described in, for example, japanese patent application laid-open No. 2010-159411 can be used.
In the present invention, the silicone resin is preferably a crosslinked product of a crosslinkable silicone composition (hereinafter referred to as "the present composition") containing at least the following components (a) to (D). In the silicone resin, the crosslinked product of the present composition is preferably 20% by weight or more, more preferably 50% by weight or more, and still more preferably 80% by weight or more.
(A) An organopolysiloxane having a branched structure represented by the average unit formula (1).

(average unit formula (1) wherein R1Is a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms, at least one of which is an aryl group and at least one of which is an alkenyl group having 2 to 6 carbon atoms. R2Is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. a. b, c, d, and e are numbers satisfying 0. ltoreq. a.ltoreq.0.1, 0.2. ltoreq. b.ltoreq.0.9, 0.1. ltoreq. c.ltoreq.0.6, 0. ltoreq. d.ltoreq.0.2, 0. ltoreq. e.ltoreq.0.1, and a + b + c + d + e.ltoreq.1. )
(B) An organopolysiloxane having a branched structure represented by the average unit formula (2).
[ chemical formula 2]
(R3 3SiO1/2)f(R3 2SiO2/2)g(R3SiO3/2)h (2)
(in the average unit formula (2), R3Is a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms, at least one of which is an aryl group and at least one of which is an alkenyl group having 2 to 6 carbon atoms. f. g and h are numbers satisfying 0.1 < f.ltoreq.0.4, 0.2. ltoreq.g.ltoreq.0.5, 0.2. ltoreq.h.ltoreq.0.5, and f + g + h is 1. )
(C) An organopolysiloxane having at least two Si-H bonds in one molecule, wherein 12 to 70 mol% of organic groups bonded to silicon atoms are aryl groups.
(D) A catalyst for hydrosilylation.
(A) The organopolysiloxane of component (B) has an aryl group, so that the compatibility with components (B) to (D) can be improved. The organopolysiloxane of component (A) has an alkenyl group having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, and causes a crosslinking reaction of components (A) to (C). Further, the organopolysiloxane of component (a) has a branched structure, so that curability is improved and good adhesion to the LED chip can be obtained.
The branched structure means the following structure: in the average unit formula, the basic structural unit has a T unit (RSiO)3/2) Q unit (SiO)4/2). In the average unit formula, a trifunctional unit having 1 organic substituent represented by R on a silicon atom is referred to as a T unit, and a tetrafunctional unit having no organic substituent represented by R on a silicon atom is referred to as a Q unit.
By introducing a branched structure into the organopolysiloxane of component (a), the crosslinking reaction rate is increased, and the phosphor sheet can obtain good curability.

In this case, the alkyl group is particularly preferably a methyl group, an ethyl group or a tert-butyl group from the viewpoint of thermal stability.
In addition, from the viewpoint of controlling the fluorescence wavelength, the absorption wavelength, and improving the compatibility with a solvent, r is preferably a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group, or a halogen, and more preferably a methyl group, an ethyl group, a tert-butyl group, or a methoxy group. From the viewpoint of dispersibility, tert-butyl and methoxy are particularly preferable. When r is a tert-butyl group or a methoxy group, it is more effective for preventing quenching caused by aggregation of molecules with each other.
And Ar1~Ar4Ar is compared with Ar when all are hydrogen1~Ar4Shows better thermal stability and light stability when at least one of (A) and (B) is substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, or substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl.

In general formula (4) representing the organic compound, Ar is1~Ar4Each of which may be the same or different and is a substituted or unsubstituted aryl or substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl is preferred. The reason for this is that better thermal stability and light stability are exhibited. In the phosphor composition and the like of the present embodiment, when the organic compound converts light emitted from the light-emitting body into light having a longer wavelength than the inorganic phosphor combined therewith, Ar represented by general formula (5)1~Ar4Aryl which may be the same or different and which is substituted or unsubstituted is more preferred, with phenyl being particularly preferred. In this case, for example, when the light emitted from the light-emitting body is blue light, the inorganic phosphor converts the blue light into green light, and the organic compound converts the blue light into red light, which is light having a longer wavelength than the color conversion of the inorganic phosphor.

In the general formula (6), R7Selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, and alkylthio. n is an integer of 1 to 3. When n is 2 or more, each R7May be the same or different.
In the aryl group represented by the general formula (6), R7To electron-donating groupThe lump is preferable because it mainly affects the color purity. Examples of the electron donating group include an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkoxy group, and an alkylthio group. Particularly preferred is an aryl group substituted with an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or an alkylthio group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms. R7The C1-8 alkyl or C1-8 alkoxy, can obtain higher color purity, so more preferably. As the aryl group that mainly affects the light emission efficiency, an aryl group having a large substituent such as a tert-butyl group or an adamantyl group is preferable.
In addition, from the viewpoint of heat resistance and color purity, Ar1And Ar4、Ar2And Ar3Aryl groups each having the same structure are preferred. Further, from the viewpoint of dispersibility, Ar is more preferably1~Ar4At least one of which is a group represented by the general formula (6) and R7Is an alkyl group or alkoxy group having 4 or more carbon atoms. Wherein as Ar1~Ar4Examples of at least one of these include a tert-butyl group, a methoxy group and a tert-butoxy group.
In the general formula (6), n is preferably an integer of 1 to 3, and more preferably 1 or 2 from the viewpoint of easiness of raw material acquisition and synthesis.
On the other hand, in the general formula (4) representing the above organic compound, Ar1≠Ar2Or Ar3≠Ar4In the case of the above, the dispersibility in the film is improved, and high-efficiency light emission can be obtained, which is particularly preferable. Here, "≠" represents a group of a different structure. For example, Ar1≠Ar2Represents Ar1And Ar2Are groups of different structures. Ar (Ar)3≠Ar4Represents Ar3And Ar4Are groups of different structures. Is referred to as Ar1≠Ar2Or Ar3≠Ar4In other words, it means not being "Ar1=Ar2And Ar3=Ar4". That is, as shown in Ar1~Ar4Does not include (1) Ar in any combination of (A)1=Ar2=Ar3=Ar4In the case of (2) Ar1=Ar2And Ar3=Ar4And Ar1≠Ar3The case (1).
The aryl group represented by the general formula (6) affects the properties and physical properties of the organic compound represented by the general formula (4), such as luminous efficiency, color purity, heat resistance, and light resistance. Although there are also aryl groups that improve a plurality of properties, there is no aryl group that exhibits sufficient performance in all properties. In particular, it is difficult to achieve both high luminous efficiency and high color purity. Therefore, if a plurality of aryl groups can be introduced into the organic compound represented by the general formula (4), it is expected to obtain an organic compound having a balance in light-emitting characteristics, color purity, and the like.
Ar1=Ar2=Ar3=Ar4The organic compound of (a) can have only 1 aryl group. In addition, for Ar1=Ar2And Ar3=Ar4And Ar is1≠Ar3The organic compound of (4) has an aromatic group having a specific physical property biased toward one pyrrole ring. In this case, it is difficult to maximize the physical properties of each aryl group as described later in view of the relationship between the luminous efficiency and the color purity.
In contrast, in the organic compound according to the embodiment of the present invention, since the substituents having certain physical properties can be disposed on the right and left pyrrole rings in a well-balanced manner, the physical properties can be exhibited to the maximum extent as compared with the case where one pyrrole ring is biased.
This effect is particularly excellent in that the luminous efficiency and the color purity are improved in a well-balanced manner. When the pyrrole rings on both sides have 1 or more aryl groups affecting color purity, the conjugated system is expanded, and light emission with high color purity can be obtained, which is preferable. However, for Ar1=Ar2And Ar3=Ar4And Ar is1≠Ar3In the case where an aryl group affecting color purity is introduced into one pyrrole ring, for example, when an aryl group affecting luminous efficiency is introduced into the other pyrrole ring, the aryl group affecting color purity is biasedThe pyrrole ring on one side does not sufficiently expand the conjugated system, and the color purity is not sufficiently improved. When an aryl group having another structure which affects color purity is introduced into the other pyrrole ring, the luminous efficiency cannot be improved.
In contrast, in the organic compound according to the embodiment of the present invention, 1 or more aryl groups that affect color purity can be introduced into each of the pyrrole rings on both sides, and aryl groups that affect light emission efficiency can be introduced into the positions other than these. Therefore, the organic compound according to the embodiment of the present invention is preferable because both the color purity and the light emission efficiency can be improved to the maximum. In Ar, the following is2And Ar3When an aryl group that affects color purity is introduced into the position of (2), the conjugated system is most expanded, and thus is preferable.
Ar1~Ar4When at least one of (a) and (b) is a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, the alkyl group is preferably an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a sec-butyl group, a tert-butyl group, a pentyl group, or a hexyl group. Further, the alkyl group is preferably a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a sec-butyl group, or a tert-butyl group, from the viewpoint of excellent thermal stability. In addition, from the viewpoint of preventing concentration quenching and improving the luminescence quantum yield, tertiary butyl with a large steric bulk is more preferable as the alkyl group. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of ease of synthesis and availability of raw materials, it is also preferable to use a methyl group as the alkyl group.
On the other hand, in the general formula (4) representing the above organic compound, Ar1~Ar4When the alkyl group may be the same or different and may be substituted or unsubstituted, the solubility in the binder resin or the solvent is good, which is preferable. In this case, the alkyl group is preferably a methyl group from the viewpoint of ease of synthesis and ease of availability of raw materials. For example, in the phosphor composition and the like of the present embodiment, when the organic compound converts light emitted from the light-emitting body into light having a shorter wavelength than the inorganic phosphor combined therewith, Ar represented by general formula (4) is present1~Ar4Each may be the same or differentWhich may be different, is a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, preferably methyl. Specifically, when the light emitted from the light-emitting body is blue light, the inorganic phosphor converts the blue light into red light, and the organic compound converts the blue light into green light, which is light having a shorter wavelength than the color conversion of the inorganic phosphor.

Namely, R5And R6Any of hydrogen, alkyl, carbonyl, oxycarbonyl and aryl is preferable, and hydrogen or alkyl is preferable from the viewpoint of thermal stability. In particular, R is more preferable from the viewpoint of easily obtaining a narrow half-value width in the emission spectrum5And R6At least one of which is hydrogen.
In addition, L is preferably an alkyl group, an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, fluorine, a fluorine-containing alkyl group, a fluorine-containing heteroaryl group, or a fluorine-containing aryl group. In particular, L is more preferably fluorine or a fluorine-containing aryl group in terms of stability to excitation light and capability of obtaining a higher fluorescence quantum yield. Further, from the viewpoint of ease of synthesis, it is more preferable that L is fluorine.
The fluorine-containing aryl group is a fluorine-containing aryl group, and examples thereof include a fluorophenyl group, a trifluoromethylphenyl group, and a pentafluorophenyl group. The fluorine-containing heteroaryl group is a heteroaryl group containing fluorine, and examples thereof include fluoropyridyl group, trifluoromethylpyridyl group, and trifluoropyridyl group. The fluoroalkyl group is a fluoroalkyl group, and examples thereof include a trifluoromethyl group, a pentafluoroethyl group, and the like.
In addition, as another embodiment of the organic compound represented by the general formula (4), R is preferable5、R6、Ar1~Ar5At least one of which is an electron withdrawing group. In particular, (1) R is preferable1、R2、Ar1~Ar4At least one of them is an electron-withdrawing group, (2) Ar5Is an electron withdrawing group, or (3) R5、R6、Ar1~Ar4At least one of which is an electron withdrawing group and Ar5Are electron withdrawing groups. As described above, by introducing an electron-withdrawing group into the methylene pyrrole skeleton of an organic compound, it is possible to make it largeThe electron density of the methylene pyrrole skeleton is greatly reduced. This further improves the stability of the organic compound to oxygen, and as a result, the durability of the organic compound can be further improved.
The electron-withdrawing group is also called an electron-accepting group, and is a group that, in the organic electron theory, withdraws electrons from a substituted group by induction effect or resonance effect. Examples of the electron-withdrawing group include groups having a positive value in terms of a substituent constant (σ p (para)) according to Hammett's law. The substituent constants (. sigma.p) (para) of the Hammett's Law may be cited from "Handbook of Chemistry, Fundamental Section" 5 th edition (pages II-380). In the present invention, the electron-withdrawing group does not include a phenyl group, although there are examples in which a phenyl group takes the positive value described above.
Examples of the electron-withdrawing group include-F (σ p: +0.06), -Cl (σ p: +0.23), -Br (σ p: +0.23), -I (σ p: +0.18), -CO2R12(σp:R12Ethyl +0.45) and-CONH2(σp:+0.38)、-COR12(σp:R12When it is methyl, +0.49), -CF3(σp:+0.50)、-SO2R12(σp:R120.69) when it is methyl group, -NO2(σ p: +0.81), and the like.

Specific examples of the above groups include those similar to the above.

The reason for this is that it is not easily chemically decomposed.
More preferred examples of the electron-withdrawing group include a fluoroalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted acyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted ester group, and a cyano group. The reason for this is that they can obtain the effects of preventing concentration quenching and improving the luminescence quantum yield. Particularly preferred electron withdrawing groups are substituted or unsubstituted ester groups.
In the general formula (4) representing the above organic compound, R is preferably5And R6At least one of which is an electron withdrawing group. This is because the stability of the organic compound represented by the general formula (4) with respect to oxygen can be improved without impairing the luminous efficiency and color purity, and as a result, the durability of the organic compound can be improved.
In addition, in Ar representing the organic compound5In the general formula (5), r is more preferably an electron-withdrawing group. This is because the stability of the organic compound represented by the general formula (4) with respect to oxygen is further improved without impairing the light-emitting efficiency and the color purity, and as a result, the durability of the organic compound can be greatly improved.

An example of a method for producing a phosphor sheet according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below. The method of producing the phosphor sheet described below is an example, and the method of producing the phosphor sheet is not limited to this.
First, a composition (hereinafter referred to as "phosphor composition") in which a phosphor is dispersed in a silicone resin is prepared as a coating liquid for forming a phosphor sheet. Prescribed amounts of the silicone resin, the phosphor, and, if necessary, an additive such as silicone microparticles, and a solvent are mixed. The phosphor composition can be obtained by mixing the above components so as to have a predetermined composition, and then mixing and dispersing the mixture into a homogeneous state by a stirring/kneading machine such as a homogenizer, a revolution/rotation type stirrer, a three-roll mill, a ball mill, a planetary ball mill, or a bead mill.
It is also preferable to defoam under vacuum or reduced pressure after or during the mixing and dispersing. Further, a specific component may be mixed in advance, or the resultant phosphor composition may be subjected to a treatment such as aging. The solvent may be removed from the mixture after mixing and dispersing by an evaporator to form a desired solid content concentration.
The phosphor composition produced by the above method is coated on a substrate, and dried to produce a phosphor sheet. Coating may be performed with a reverse roll coater, a knife coater, a slot die coater, a direct gravure coater, an offset gravure coater, a kiss coater, a natural roll coater, an air knife coater, a roll knife coater, a dual stream coater, a rod coater, a wire rod coater, an applicator, a dip coater, a curtain coater, a spin coater, a knife coater, and the like. In order to obtain the film thickness uniformity of the phosphor sheet, coating is preferably performed by a slot die coater.
The phosphor sheet can be dried by using a general heating device such as a hot air dryer or an infrared dryer. In this case, the drying is carried out at 40 to 250 ℃ for 1 minute to 5 hours, preferably 60 to 200 ℃ for 2 minutes to 4 hours. Alternatively, the drying may be performed stepwise, such as stepwise curing.
After the phosphor sheet is produced, the base material may be changed as necessary. In this case, as a simple method, there can be mentioned: a method of re-attaching a substrate using a hot plate, a method of re-attaching a substrate using a vacuum laminator or a dry film laminator, and the like.
< example of applying phosphor sheet >
By attaching the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention or the cured product thereof to the light emitting surface of the LED chip, an LED chip with a phosphor sheet can be formed in which the phosphor sheet is laminated on the surface of the LED chip. The LED chip to which the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention can be applied is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include LED chips having a normal structure such as a horizontal, vertical, and flip chip. As such an LED chip, particularly, a vertical type and a flip chip type LED chip having a large light emitting area are preferable.

Specifically, the LED chip may be a vertical LED chip, or an LED chip in which the side surface of the LED chip is covered with a reflective layer and light is extracted only from the upper surface. On the other hand, examples of the LED chip having a curved light emitting surface include an LED chip having an upper light emitting surface and a side light emitting surface.
Among these LED chips, a case where the light-emitting surface is not a single plane is preferable because light emission from the side can be utilized to brighten the light-emitting surface. Particularly, a flip-chip type LED chip having an upper light emitting surface and a side light emitting surface is preferable because the light emitting area can be increased and the manufacturing process of the LED chip is easy. In addition, the surface of the light-emitting surface may be textured (texture) based on optical design for improving the light-emitting efficiency of the LED chip.
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention may be directly attached to the LED chip, or may be attached via an adhesive such as a transparent resin. The case where the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention is directly attached to the LED chip is more preferable in terms of that light from the LED chip can be directly incident on the phosphor sheet without loss due to reflection or the like. This makes it possible to efficiently obtain uniform white light with little color variation.
The LED chip with the phosphor-containing sheet obtained in the above manner is mounted on a wiring board provided with metal wiring or the like and packaged, whereby an LED package can be produced. Then, the light-emitting device is assembled into a module, and can be suitably used for various light-emitting devices including various illuminations, liquid crystal backlights, and headlamps.
Fig. 1 shows a preferred example of an LED package according to an embodiment of the present invention. In fig. 1(a), an LED chip 1 to which a phosphor sheet 2 is attached is mounted on a mounting substrate 5 provided with a reflector 4, and the upper surface portion of the LED chip 1 is sealed with a transparent sealing material 3.

The upper surface of the transparent sealing material 3 is formed into a lens shape.

In this configuration, the phosphor sheet 2 may be attached only to the upper surface and the side surfaces which are the light emitting surfaces of the LED chips 1.
In fig. 1(g), in the configuration shown in fig. 1(d), the configuration of the LED chip 1 and the phosphor sheet 2 is the same as that shown in fig. 1 (f).
In fig. 1(h), the LED chip 1 is provided so as to fit a portion of the mounting substrate 5 provided with the reflector 4, which portion does not have the reflector 4, and a phosphor sheet 2 having the same width as the interval between the reflector 4 and the LED chip 1 is attached to the LED chip 1 via an adhesive 8 and sealed with a sealing material 3.
In fig. 1(i), in the configuration shown in fig. 1(h), the phosphor sheet 2 with the base material 9 is used as the phosphor sheet 2, and the phosphor sheet 2 is bonded via the adhesive 8 so that the base material 9 is not peeled off from the phosphor sheet 2.
The LED package according to the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to these configurations. For example, the structures of the respective elements illustrated in fig. 1(a) to 1(i) may be combined as appropriate. In addition, the configuration of each element illustrated in fig. 1(a) to 1(i) may be replaced with a configuration in which known elements other than these elements are used, or a configuration in which known elements are combined with the configuration illustrated in fig. 1(a) to 1 (i).
The transparent sealing material 3 may be any material as long as it is excellent in moldability, transparency, heat resistance, adhesiveness, and the like. For example, known materials such as epoxy resins, silicone resins (including organopolysiloxane cured products (crosslinked products) such as silicone rubbers and silicone gels), urea resins, fluorine resins, and polycarbonate resins can be used.
As the adhesive 8, a material used as the above-described transparent sealing material can be used.

Among these fine particles, silica fine particles, alumina fine particles, and titania fine particles are preferably used from the viewpoint of easy availability.
< method of attaching phosphor sheet and method of manufacturing LED Package Using phosphor sheet >
Next, a method of attaching a phosphor sheet according to an embodiment of the present invention to an LED chip and a method of manufacturing an LED package using the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.
As described below, a typical method for manufacturing an LED package using a phosphor sheet according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a method (1) in which a phosphor sheet is cut into individual pieces and then attached to individual LED chips (see, for example, fig. 2); the method (2) is not limited to the above method, in which the phosphor sheet is collectively bonded to a large number of LED chips formed on the wafer (hereinafter, referred to as "wafer-level LED chips"), and then the wafer is diced and the phosphor sheet is cut collectively (see, for example, fig. 3). Hereinafter, these steps will be described with reference to fig. 2 and 3 as appropriate.
(Process of attaching phosphor sheet to LED chip)
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention is heated and pressurized at a desired temperature, and is attached to an LED chip. It is a bonding based on heat crimping.
The heating temperature is preferably 60 ℃ or more and 250 ℃ or less, and more preferably 60 ℃ or more and 160 ℃ or less. By setting the heating temperature to 60 ℃ or higher, resin design for increasing the difference between the storage elastic modulus G 'of the phosphor sheet at room temperature and the elastic modulus G' of the phosphor sheet at the pasting temperature becomes easy. Further, by setting the heating temperature to 250 ℃ or lower, thermal expansion and thermal contraction of the phosphor sheet can be reduced, and therefore the positional accuracy of the bonding can be improved.
In particular, when the phosphor sheet is perforated in advance and aligned with a predetermined portion on the LED chip, the positional accuracy of the bonding is important. The heating temperature is more preferably 160 ℃ or lower from the viewpoint of improving the positional accuracy of the pasting.
As a means for thermally and pressure-bonding the phosphor sheet, any means can be used as long as it can be pressure-bonded at a desired temperature, and any conventional means can be used. As shown in fig. 2(c) to (d), when the singulated phosphor sheets are thermally and pressure bonded, for example, a thermal and pressure bonding tool such as a chip mounter or a flip chip bonder can be used.
In addition, as shown in fig. 3(a) to (b), when the phosphor sheets are collectively attached to the LED chips on the wafer level, a vacuum laminator or a thermocompression bonding tool having a heating portion of about 100 to 200mm square can be used.
In any case, the phosphor sheet with the base material is pressure-bonded to the LED chip at a desired temperature, and the phosphor sheet is heat-welded, and then left to cool to room temperature, and the base material is peeled off from the phosphor sheet. Since the storage elastic modulus G' at 25 ℃ and 100 ℃ of the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention is within the above-described relationship, the phosphor sheet after being left to cool to room temperature after heat fusion is firmly adhered to the LED chip and can be easily peeled from the base material.
(Process of cutting phosphor sheet)
A method of cutting a phosphor sheet includes: a method of cutting the LED chip into individual pieces in advance before the LED chip is attached; and a method of cutting the phosphor sheet simultaneously with dicing the wafer after attaching the phosphor sheet to the LED chip on the wafer level.
As shown in fig. 2, when the phosphor sheet is cut before being bonded to the LED chip, the phosphor sheet formed uniformly is processed and divided into predetermined shapes by processing with a laser or cutting with a cutter. Since high energy is applied to the phosphor sheet by processing with a laser, scorching of the resin in the phosphor sheet and deterioration of the phosphor may be caused by the processing conditions. Therefore, cutting with a cutter is preferable as a method for cutting the phosphor sheet.
As a cutting method using a tool, for example, there are a method of cutting by pressing a simple tool and a method of cutting by a rotary tool, and both of them can be suitably used. As an apparatus for cutting with a rotary cutter, an apparatus for cutting (dicing) a semiconductor substrate into individual chips called a dicer is suitably used. When a dicing machine is used, the width of the dividing line of the phosphor sheet can be precisely controlled by setting the thickness and conditions of the rotary cutter, and therefore, high processing accuracy can be obtained as compared with the case where the phosphor sheet is cut by simply pressing the cutter.
When the phosphor sheet laminated on the base material is cut, the phosphor sheet may be singulated together with the base material, or the base material may be not cut at the same time as the phosphor sheet is singulated. Alternatively, the phosphor sheet may be singulated and a cut line that does not penetrate through the base material may be drawn into the base material (so-called half-cut state).
When the phosphor sheet is singulated together with the base material, the individual phosphor sheets can be attached to the LED chip by the above-described method. In this case, the base material may be peeled off from the phosphor sheet before or after the LED chip is attached. Further, the base material may be left as it is without being peeled off from the phosphor sheet.
When the phosphor sheet is singulated without cutting the base material or in a so-called half-cut state, the phosphor sheet of each individual piece may be peeled off from the base material and then attached to the individual LED chips by the above-described method.
As shown in fig. 3, when the phosphor sheet is attached to LED chips on a wafer level and then cut simultaneously with dicing of the wafer, the phosphor sheet can be processed into a predetermined shape by processing with a laser or cutting with a cutter, and divided into LED chips with the phosphor sheet that have been singulated. Among these cutting methods, cutting by a tool is preferable.
(specific example of method for producing LED Package Using phosphor sheet)
Fig. 2 shows an example of a series of steps for separating the phosphor sheet together with the base material and attaching the phosphor sheet to the LED chip. The step of fig. 2 includes a step of cutting the phosphor sheet into individual pieces and a step of attaching the cut phosphor sheet to the LED chip.
Fig. 2(a) is a view of fixing the phosphor sheet 2 stacked on the base material 9 to the temporary fixing sheet 11. In the step shown in fig. 2, since both the phosphor sheet 2 and the base material 9 are singulated, they are fixed to the temporary fixing sheet 11 in advance to facilitate handling. Next, as shown in fig. 2(b), the phosphor sheet 2 and the base material 9 are cut and singulated.
Next, as shown in fig. 2(c), the singulated phosphor sheet 2 is aligned with the base material 9 on the LED chip 1 mounted on the mounting substrate 5. Then, as shown in fig. 2(d), the phosphor sheet 2 is pressure-bonded to the LED chip 1 at a desired temperature using a heat pressure-bonding tool 12. In this case, the pressure bonding step is preferably performed under vacuum or reduced pressure so as not to mix air between the phosphor sheet 2 and the LED chip 1. After crimping, the material was left to cool to room temperature.
Next, as shown in fig. 2(e), the base material 9 is peeled off from the phosphor sheet 2. When the substrate 9 is glass or the like, the substrate 9 may be left as it is without being peeled off as shown in fig. 2 (f).
Fig. 3 shows an example of a series of steps in a case where the phosphor sheet is collectively attached to LED chips on a wafer level, and then dicing of the wafer and cutting of the phosphor sheet are collectively performed. The step of fig. 3 includes a step of collectively bonding a phosphor sheet to a plurality of LED chips formed on a wafer, and a step of collectively dicing the wafer and singulating the LED chips to which the phosphor sheet is bonded.
As shown in fig. 3(a), the phosphor sheet 2 in a state of being laminated with the base material 9 is not subjected to cutting processing in advance. One side of the phosphor sheet 2 is opposed to a wafer 13 having a plurality of LED chips (not shown) formed on the surface thereof, and aligned.
Next, as shown in fig. 3(b), the phosphor sheet 2 is collectively heat-pressure bonded to the plurality of LED chips at a desired temperature using the heat-pressure bonding tool 12. In this case, the heat-pressure bonding step is preferably performed under vacuum or under reduced pressure so as not to mix air between the phosphor sheet 2 and the LED chip. Heating and pressing, standing and cooling to room temperature.
Next, as shown in fig. 3(c), after the base material 9 is peeled off from the phosphor sheet 2, the phosphor sheet 2 is cut and singulated simultaneously with the dicing of the wafer 13. Then, as shown in fig. 3(d), the LED chip 25 is obtained as a singulated phosphor-attached sheet.
Instead of the steps shown in fig. 3(c) to (d), the base material 9 may be cut together with the phosphor sheet and singulated as shown in fig. 3(f) without peeling the base material 9 from the phosphor sheet 2 as shown in fig. 3 (e). Thus, the LED chip 26 with the base material and the phosphor sheet is obtained as a single piece. In this case, the base material 9 may be used as it is without being peeled from the phosphor sheet 2, such as glass. When the base material 9 is a plastic film, the LED chip 26 may be mounted on the substrate, and then the base material 9 may be peeled off from the phosphor sheet 2.
In any of the steps of fig. 2 and 3, when the phosphor sheet is attached to the LED chip having the electrodes on the upper surface, the phosphor sheet in the portion corresponding to the electrodes must be removed. Therefore, it is preferable to perform hole drilling on the portion of the phosphor sheet corresponding to the electrode in advance before the phosphor sheet is attached to the LED chip. The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention can be processed by drilling with high accuracy.
That is, in the method for manufacturing an LED package according to the embodiment of the present invention, the phosphor sheet is preferably attached to a portion of the light emitting surface of the LED chip that is away from the electrode.
The method of the hole forming is not particularly limited, and for example, known methods such as laser processing and die punching can be preferably used. Laser processing may cause scorching of the resin in the phosphor sheet and deterioration of the phosphor due to processing conditions. Therefore, the punching process using a die is more preferable. When the punching process is performed, the punching process cannot be performed after the phosphor sheet is attached to the LED chip, and therefore the punching process must be performed before the phosphor sheet is attached to the LED chip.
The punching process using the die can design the die according to the shape, size, and the like of the electrode provided in the LED chip, thereby forming a hole having an arbitrary shape and size. In the LED chip having a size of about 1mm square, the size of the electrode on the upper surface is preferably 500 μm square or less so as not to reduce the area of the light-emitting surface. Therefore, the size of the holes provided in the phosphor sheet is preferably 500 μm or less in square. In the case of wire bonding or the like between the electrode on the upper surface of the LED chip and the mounting board on which the LED chip is mounted, the electrode on the upper surface needs to have a certain size, for example, a size of at least about 50 μm square. Therefore, the size of the holes provided in the phosphor sheet is preferably about 50 μm square.
When the size of the hole formed in the phosphor sheet is too large as compared with the size of the electrode, the light emitting surface is exposed, light leakage occurs, and the color characteristics of the LED package may be degraded. If the electrode size is too small, the lead may contact the phosphor sheet during wire bonding, resulting in poor bonding. Therefore, in the hole forming process in the phosphor sheet, it is preferable to form a hole having a size of 50 μm or more and 500 μm or less with a high accuracy within ± 10%.
When the phosphor sheet subjected to cutting processing and optionally perforated processing is aligned with a predetermined portion of the LED chip and bonded, a bonding apparatus having an optical alignment structure is required. In this case, it is difficult to align the phosphor sheet and the LED chip close to each other. Therefore, in practice, it is often performed as follows: the alignment is performed in a state where the phosphor sheet is lightly contacted with the LED chip.
In this case, if the phosphor sheet has adhesiveness, it is very difficult to move the phosphor sheet in contact with the LED chip. In contrast, in the case of the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention, since there is no adhesiveness at room temperature, the phosphor sheet and the LED chip are easily aligned in a state of being lightly in contact with each other.
The phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention may be further subjected to a heat treatment by an oven or the like as necessary after being attached to the LED chip. By performing the heat treatment, the adhesion between the phosphor sheet and the LED chip can be further strengthened.
In addition, when the LED chip to which the phosphor sheet is attached is bonded to the mounting board at one time, the LED chip may be bonded by thermocompression bonding or soldered by reflow soldering to the mounting board.
As another embodiment of the method for manufacturing an LED package using the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention, a method for manufacturing an LED package by mass production will be described. First, a method for manufacturing an LED chip with a phosphor-coated sheet will be described. As a method of attaching the phosphor sheet to the LED chip, for example, as shown in fig. 4, a method of attaching the phosphor sheet laminate 14 singulated for each LED chip 1 is given. As shown in fig. 5, there is a method of collectively attaching the phosphor sheet 2 to the plurality of LED chips 1 to cover them, and then cutting the package substrate 15 to singulate the LED chips 1.
Next, as still another embodiment of the method for manufacturing an LED package using the phosphor sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention, two methods are exemplified.
Fig. 6 shows a first example of the production. This is a preferable example when the base material of the phosphor sheet has fluidity.
As shown in fig. 6(a), the LED chip 1 is temporarily fixed to the base 18 via a double-sided adhesive tape 17. As shown in fig. 6(b), the phosphor sheet laminate 14 is laminated such that the phosphor sheet 2 is in contact with the LED chip 1.
As shown in fig. 6(c), the laminate of fig. 6(b) is loaded into the lower chamber 20 of the vacuum diaphragm laminator 22, and then the upper chamber 19 and the lower chamber 20 are depressurized while heating. After the pressure reduction and heating are performed until the base material 9 flows, the air is sucked into the upper chamber 19 through the air inlet 23, whereby the membrane 21 is expanded. Thereby, the fluorescent sheet 2 is pressed by the base material 9 and attached so as to follow the light emitting surface of the LED chip 1.
As shown in fig. 6(d), the upper and lower chambers were returned to atmospheric pressure, and then the laminate was taken out from the vacuum diaphragm laminator 22, left to cool, and the base material 9 was peeled off from the phosphor sheet 2. Subsequently, the cutting portions 24 between the LED chips are cut with a dicing blade or the like, and LED chips 25 with a phosphor sheet are produced as singulated pieces.
As shown in fig. 6(e), the LED chip 25 with the phosphor-coated sheet is bonded to the package electrode 16 on the mounting substrate 15 via the gold bump 7. The LED package 10 as shown in fig. 6(f) is manufactured by the above steps.
Fig. 7 shows a second example of the production. This is another preferable example when the base material of the phosphor sheet has fluidity.
As shown in fig. 7(a), the LED chip 1 is bonded to the package electrode 16 on the mounting substrate 15 via the gold bump 7.
As shown in fig. 7(b), the phosphor sheet laminate 14 is laminated such that the phosphor sheet 2 is in contact with the LED chip 1.
As shown in fig. 7(c), the laminate of fig. 7(b) is placed in the lower chamber 20 of the vacuum diaphragm laminator 22, and then the phosphor sheet 2 is attached to the light emitting surface of the LED chip 1 by the same method as in the manufacturing example of fig. 6.
As shown in fig. 7(d), the upper and lower chambers were returned to atmospheric pressure, and then the laminate was taken out from the vacuum diaphragm laminator 22, left to cool, and the base material 9 was peeled off from the phosphor sheet 2. Subsequently, the cutting portions 24 between the LED packages are cut and singulated. The LED package 10 as shown in fig. 7(e) is manufactured by the above steps.

A2L four-necked round-bottomed flask was equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a reflux tube and a dropping funnel. To the flask, 2L of 2.5% aqueous ammonia containing 1ppm of polyether modified siloxane "BYK 333" as a surfactant was added, and the temperature was raised with an oil bath while stirring at 300 rpm. After the internal temperature reached 50 ℃, 200g of a mixture of methyltrimethoxysilane (MTM) and phenyltrimethoxysilane (PhTM) (MTM/PhTM: 23/77 mol%) was added dropwise from the dropping funnel over 30 minutes. At this temperature, stirring was continued for a further 60 minutes, after which about 5g of acetic acid (reagent grade) were added. The mixture was stirred and then filtered to obtain particles on the filter. The particles were washed 2 times with 600mL of water and 1 time with 200mL of methanol, and filtered. The cake on the filter was taken out, pulverized, and freeze-dried over 10 hours, whereby 60g of a white powder was obtained. The obtained white powder was observed by SEM to be monodisperse spherical fine particles. The refractive index of the fine particles was measured by liquid immersion, and the result was 1.54. The microparticles were observed by cross-sectional Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) using a TEM. As a result, it was confirmed that the particles were fine particles having a single structure.

< evaluation of cutting workability >
The obtained phosphor sheet was cut into a square of 1mm × 0.3mm by using a cutting apparatus "GCUT" (manufactured by UHT corporation), and 100 individual phosphor sheets were prepared. The individual phosphor sheets were observed with an optical microscope, and the number of samples having a fracture or a defect in the peripheral portion was counted. The smaller the number of samples having a broken or defective peripheral edge portion, the more excellent the cutting workability. When the value is B or more, the composition is excellent in practical use.

< method for manufacturing LED Package >
The obtained phosphor sheet was cut into a square of 1mm × 0.3mm by a dicing apparatus "GCUT" (manufactured by UHT corporation), and 100 individual phosphor sheets were prepared. The individual phosphor sheets were vacuum-sucked by a collet using a flip chip bonding apparatus (manufactured by Toray engineering Co., Ltd.) and peeled from the base material. The peeled single phosphor sheet was attached to the LED chip surface of the LED package mounted with the flip-chip LED chip under the following attachment conditions.

Pressurizing conditions: 80N
Pressurizing time: for 20 seconds.
< evaluation of adhesion >
Using the obtained LED package, tweezers were placed at the interface between the LED chip and the phosphor sheet, and then the phosphor sheet was held by the tweezers to confirm adhesiveness between the LED chip and the phosphor sheet. The samples having good adhesiveness were not peeled off even when they were gripped with tweezers. In the sample having poor adhesiveness, the phosphor sheet was peeled off from the LED chip. The number of the peeled samples was counted by observation with an optical microscope. The smaller the number of samples peeled off, the more excellent the adhesiveness. When the value is B or more, the composition is excellent in practical use.
S: 0 piece of the adhesive was very good
A: 1 to 5 pieces of the adhesive composition have good adhesiveness
B: adhesion of 6 or more and 10 or less is practically not problematic
