Description

LED chip, LED lamp and working method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of LEDs, in particular to an LED chip, an LED lamp and a working method.
Background
The LED has the characteristic of a semiconductor heterojunction, shows the unique I-V rectification characteristic of a PN junction, namely forward conduction, reverse cut-off or breakdown; when a forward voltage is applied to the LED (the P electrode is connected with the anode, and the N electrode is connected with the cathode), the junction voltage is reduced. Under the action of an external electric field, electrons in the N region drift and diffuse towards the P region, and holes in the P region drift and diffuse towards the N region. The electrons and holes recombine radiatively in the active region (at the PN junction or in the quantum well) to emit photons, which escape from the semiconductor into the air to achieve luminescence.
The LED is influenced by various stress factors such as electricity, heat, machinery and the like to age in the long-term use process, so that the reliability is reduced, the lighting effect is reduced, and the service life is shortened, while the lighting effect of the conventional LED lamp is lower than 100 lm/W. The low luminous efficiency directly influences the service performance and the lighting performance of the lamp. Although LEDs are widely used in various electronic and electrical devices, if reliability, energy-saving efficiency and service life cannot be guaranteed, problems such as resource consumption and energy-saving will occur in the using process. Therefore, the deep research on improving the luminous efficiency and prolonging the service life of the LED is of great significance.
Heat dissipation is a significant problem for high power LEDs. Relevant research and practice show that when the temperature of an LED chip exceeds a certain value, the failure rate of a device exponentially rises. The aging of the device is accelerated by the over-temperature of the LED chip. More importantly, as the temperature of the chip increases, the light extraction efficiency decreases and the light output decreases because of the increased leakage current caused by thermal effects. As the temperature rises, carriers injected into the PN junction active region leak, so that the capture rate is reduced, and the capability of the nonradiative recombination energy level for capturing the carriers is enhanced. In addition, excessive chip temperature may also cause the chip to burn out. The aging yellowing of epoxy resin, the aging of fluorescent powder and the cracking of the packaging material which appear in the test are all the results under the action of long-term high temperature.
The main reasons influencing the temperature of the LED lamp include heat generated by the LED chip during the light emitting process, influence of ambient temperature, and heat dissipation effect of the lamp itself, where the ambient temperature is an uncontrollable factor, and it is difficult to accurately keep the lamp working in a constant temperature environment, especially for an outdoor LED lamp, which is usually influenced by the temperature in the nature; secondly, the self-heat dissipation factor of the lamp is not changed, so the most important factor influencing the temperature of the LED lamp is the heat generated by the LED chip in the working process.

By way of example, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the number of the positive terminals 13 and the negative terminals 14 is one, that is, the chip modules 20 are connected into an integral chip module unit by the circuit carrier 10. In other alternative embodiments of the present invention, the number of the positive terminals 13 and the negative terminals 14 of the circuit carrier 10 may be two or more, that is, different chip module units are composed of different positive terminals 13 and/or different negative terminals 14 of the circuit carrier 10.

Therefore, the specific manner of the circuit is only used as an example and not a limitation, and in other alternative embodiments of the present invention, the circuit structure 12 of the circuit carrier 10 may be replaced with other types.
Preferably, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the chip modules 20 are soldered to the carrier body 11 of the circuit carrier 10 in an array. As an example, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the number of the chip modules 20 is Y — PQ, that is, the chip modules 20 are P-serial-Q parallel array modules. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the arrangement of the chip modules 20 is shown here by way of example only and not by way of limitation. In other alternative embodiments of the present invention, the chip modules may also be implemented in a non-array manner, i.e., in a serial and/or parallel manner in any permutation and combination.
It is understood that an external power source is electrically conducted to the chip module 20 through the positive terminal 13 and the negative terminal 14 of the circuit carrier 10.

Preferably, the chip units 21 of the chip module 20 are arranged in an array.
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, when the LED light fixture is electrically turned on, the LED chips of the LED light fixture operate to generate heat, which causes the temperature of the LED light fixture to increase. The working temperature of the LED chip can be kept relatively stable along with heat dissipation and ambient temperature, the LED chip of the LED lamp can work according to a set working mode, the working temperature is effectively reduced, and the LED efficiency is improved.
When the LED lamp is electrically conducted, the positive terminal 13 and the negative terminal 14 of the LED chip are electrically conducted to form a circuit, wherein the positive terminal 13 inputs a forward current, and each chip unit 21 of each chip module 20 is conducted by the circuit structure 12. More specifically, the working principle and the beneficial effects of the LED chip working current control device of the LED chip of the present invention that the current is lower than the rated forward current of the LED chip when the LED chip works are specifically disclosed below.
One of the most important criteria for measuring the performance of an LED light source is LED efficiency, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art. The main describing LED efficiency are injection efficiency, internal quantum efficiency, extraction efficiency, external quantum efficiency and luminous efficiency.
The injection efficiency is the ratio of the current injected into the active region (i.e., the number of electrons) to the total current (the total number of electrons passing through the LED), i.e., the injection efficiency is the number of electrons in the active region/the total number of electrons. The injection efficiency is related to the doping concentration of P-type and N-type materials, and also to the diffusion coefficient and mobility of carriers in the materials. The electron holes injected into the active region recombine in the active region, including radiative recombination and non-radiative recombination. Radiative recombination results primarily from interband transitions, exciton recombination, or recombination at impurity centers, among others. The non-radiative recombination includes recombination involving impurities and defects, auger recombination, surface recombination caused by surface states, and the like. When electrons and holes undergo non-radiative recombination, the radiated energy is given off as heat, rather than as photons. Obviously, the LED as a light emitting device should improve the radiative recombination probability and reduce the non-radiative recombination probability as much as possible. The internal quantum efficiency refers to the ratio of the number of electron-hole pairs undergoing radiative recombination in the active region to the total number of electron-hole pairs in the active region, i.e., the internal quantum efficiency is the number of radiative recombination electron-hole pairs/the number of active region electron-hole pairs.
When an electron hole emits a photon by radiative recombination in the active region, not all photons escape from the bulk of the material into the air. Because of a plurality of interfaces in the LED epitaxial structure, photons can be reflected for a plurality of times in the LED body, and the photons can smoothly escape into the air only within a proper angle. The angle of the escape cone is calculated to be very small. I.e. only a small fraction of the photons generated in the active region can escape into the air and contribute to the emission of light by the LED. The light extraction efficiency is the ratio of the number of photons escaping to the total number of photons generated by the active region. According to the above description, the total number of photons generated by the active region is the number of electrons participating in radiative recombination. The light extraction efficiency is thus the number of escaping photons/number of radiation recombination electrons.
The external quantum efficiency is the ratio of the number of photons that are eventually emitted from within the LED material into the air to the total number of electrons injected into the LED, and is determined by the following equation: external quantum efficiency is injection efficiency x internal quantum efficiency x light extraction efficiency. The formula for the external quantum efficiency is expressed as follows,
Figure RE-GDA0003595808740000081
wherein n isqNumber of photons generated per unit time in the active region, neThe number of electron-hole pairs injected into the active region per unit time is shown, P is the output optical power of the LED chip, hc is the energy of a single photon, gamma is the light-emitting wavelength, and I is the forward working current. According to the formula, the LED chip working current control device of the LED chip controls the reduction of the forward working current, and can effectively improve the external quantum efficiency of the LED.
Another important factor for external quantum efficiency is light extraction efficiency. The current LED chip is used to improve light extraction efficiency, and has several methods, such as (1) using a patterned sapphire substrate; (2) a P-type surface roughening technology; (3) ITO hollowing technology; (4) current Blocking Layer design (CBL); (5) and plating a high-reflection film on the back of the chip.
The heat generated by the LED during operation is mainly divided into two types: (a) after the electrons and the holes are recombined, energy is released, the release form of the energy is divided into radiation and non-radiation, one part of the energy is released in the radiation form to generate light, and the other part of the energy is released in the non-radiation form to cause the lattice vibration of the semiconductor material, namely the energy is converted into heat; (b) electrons encounter resistance during their migration in semiconductors, which generates joule heat Q ^2 ^ R ^ t. Whereas the light output of LEDs is very sensitive to temperature: the concentration of electrons and holes is increased, the forbidden bandwidth is reduced, and the electron mobility is reduced when the temperature is increased; the temperature rises, the radiative recombination probability of electrons and holes in the potential well is reduced, and non-radiative recombination (heat generation) is caused, so that the internal quantum efficiency of the LED is reduced; the temperature rise causes the blue light wave crest of the chip to shift towards the long wave direction, so that the emission wavelength of the chip is not matched with the excitation wavelength of the fluorescent powder, and the external light extraction efficiency of the white light LED is also reduced; as the temperature rises, the quantum efficiency of the fluorescent powder is reduced, the light emission is reduced, and the external light extraction efficiency of the LED is reduced; the performance of silica gel is greatly influenced by the ambient temperature. Along with the temperature rise, the thermal stress in the silica gel is increased, so that the refractive index of the silica gel is reduced, and the LED lighting effect is influenced.
That is, when the ambient temperature is low or the LED chip operating current is small, the light output of the LED may increase; when the ambient temperature is too high or the working current of the LED chip is too large, the temperature of the LED chip can be increased, so that the light output of the LED chip is reduced, at the moment, the microscopic parameters such as electrons, hole concentration, forbidden band width, electron mobility and the like in the PN junction can be changed, the internal quantum efficiency and the external quantum efficiency of the LED efficiency are reduced, and the light output of the LED is influenced.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, when the current of the LED chip increases, the internal quantum efficiency of the chip unit 21 increases with the increase of the operating current, and when the current increases to a certain degree, the internal quantum efficiency of the chip unit 21 decreases with the increase of the operating current. That is, the chip unit 21 of the LED chip does not increase with an increase in current. Therefore, by controlling the magnitude of the current value of the forward operating current of the chip unit 21, the internal quantum efficiency of the LED chip can be effectively improved. That is, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the forward operating current of the chip unit 21 is controlled to be lower than 69.8% of the rated operating current, so as to improve the internal quantum efficiency of the LED chip.
As shown in fig. 3, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the LED lamp is a high luminous efficiency lamp, and when the luminous efficiency of the LED lamp exceeds 200lm/W, the lamp can have high luminous efficiency. That is, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the LED lamp realizes the effect of high light efficiency by controlling the operating current thereof.
The LED chip can effectively control the junction temperature of the PN junction, so that the LED works at a lower temperature, the internal quantum efficiency and the external quantum efficiency of the LED chip are improved, the light output of the LED can be effectively improved, and the stability of the LED in the long-term working process is improved. The LED works at a lower temperature, so that the aging of the LED caused by high temperature can be avoided. Specifically, the transparent epoxy resin is denatured and yellowed at high temperature, the transparency of the transparent epoxy resin is reduced, the packaging material is easily carbonized under the condition of large current, and a conductive channel is formed around the device, so that the device is failed; the high temperature of the PN junction causes a red shift in the spectral wavelength of the LED. The fluorescent powder can also be degraded under the heat effect, so that the excited light spectral region of the fluorescent powder is not matched with the light-emitting spectral region of the chip, and the part of the fluorescent powder which absorbs light but does not emit light is increased. The light excited by the phosphor is reduced, resulting in failure. The opacity of the phosphor causes a significant amount of scattering of light and also provides a barrier to light. Excessive temperatures are a significant cause of degradation of the packaging material. When the temperature of the chip is too high and the temperature of the epoxy resin used for the LED package is close to the junction temperature of the chip, the thermal expansion coefficient of the epoxy resin may change dramatically, and the generated internal stress and the vapor pressure of moisture are likely to be greater than the adhesive force between the package resin and the chip, the die attach adhesive and the frame surface, so that the peeling phenomenon occurs between the interfaces of the package resin and the chip, and the package resin or the chip may crack in severe cases.
