Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a semiconductor light emitting device which can emit white light with higher luminance and can be easily incorporated in small-sized electronic equipment. SOLUTION: A blue light emitting element 3 and a green light emitting element 4 of a semiconductor light emitting device are mounted on a common mounting surface in a paired state and are electrically connected to each other so that the elements 3 and 4 may be turned on simultaneously. Then the blue light emitting element 3 is covered with a wavelength conversion filter 7 which converts the light emitting wavelength of the element 3 to the red side, so as to obtain white light emission through the synthesization with the green light emitted from the green light emitting element 4. Therefore, this light emitting device can emit white light with high luminance by synthesizing the light emitted from the low-luminance blue light emitting element 3 converted in wavelength to the red side with the light emitting from the high-luminance green light emitting element 4.

2. Description of the Related Art Semiconductor light-emitting devices such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using semiconductor light-emitting elements have three primary colors of red (R), green (G), and blue (B). It is now possible to support full-color displays with the combination of light emission. In particular, recently, a high-luminance blue light-emitting LED in which a GaN-based compound semiconductor is stacked on a sapphire substrate has been developed, and a high-quality color image has been obtained.

On the other hand, the LED is used not only for displaying images on a large-screen display or the like, but also for a light source for reading an LED-type original in an image scanner for reading image information from an original such as various kinds of documents, and writing for a printer. It is also used for LED arrays and the like. These applications tend to be used as light sources rather than image displays, and will be further expanded to provide white light illumination and backlights for liquid crystal displays such as mobile phones in the future. It is possible.

It is also widely known that the hue of an emitted color can be changed by manipulating the emission wavelength of each emitted color of the LED. Means for changing the emission wavelength include, for example, a wavelength conversion material using a fluorescent substance or the like as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-99345, and by coating an LED with this wavelength conversion material. The original emission wavelength of the LED changes. Therefore, instead of the combination of R, G, and B, a fluorescent material that converts blue into yellow or yellowish green is applied to the B LED, and the emission of the B LED is combined with the obtained yellow emission to produce white light. It has already been proposed to obtain light emission.

The light emission characteristics of the ED are directly reflected on the light emission luminance. As described above, although the LED of B emits much higher luminous brightness than the conventional LED by using the GaN compound semiconductor, it is still inferior to the luminous luminance of R and G. is there. Accordingly, although one or two LEDs can be used, which is preferable for downsizing, sufficient luminance of white light emission cannot be obtained. In order to increase the light emission luminance, the number of LED combinations may be increased. However, the space for arranging the LEDs is increased, and a problem arises when the LEDs are incorporated into small electronic devices.

In order to use such a resin mixed with a fluorescent substance as a material of the wavelength conversion filter 7, in the manufacture of an LED lamp, the blue and green light emitting elements 3 and 4 are mounted on the mount 1b, The periphery of the light emitting element 3 is sealed with a wavelength conversion filter 7, and then the package 2

In the above configuration, the conductive structure for the blue and green light emitting elements 3 and 4 on the mount portion 1b allows the light emitting elements 3 and 4 to be simultaneously turned on when energized.
Lights up. At this time, green light is emitted from the green light emitting element 4 into the package 2 with the bottom surface and the inner peripheral surface of the mount portion 1b as reflection surfaces. On the other hand, in the blue light emitting element 3, blue light is emitted from the active layer, but the wavelength conversion filter 7 covers the outside, so that the wavelength is converted and emitted into the package 2. Therefore, the package 2 which also functions as a lens emits a mixture of green light from the green light emitting element 4 and wavelength conversion light from the blue light emitting element 3.

When the color coordinates are used, the colors that can be represented by the R, G, and B LEDs are L, G, and B, each of which is a single color.
It is a region included in a horseshoe shape having three points specified by the ED color coordinate values as vertices. Then, the light emitted from the blue light emitting element 3 is converted to the red side by the wavelength conversion filter 7, and takes the coordinates of the converted color indicated by C in the figure. In other words, the blue light emitted from the blue light emitting element 3 is emitted as a converted color C as if the red light of R is synthesized with the red light of R, and becomes a substantially red-violet light emission color. Therefore, in the package 2, the converted color C and the green color of the coordinates of G in the figure from the green light-emitting element 4 are mixed to produce white light indicated by the coordinates of W in the figure.

As described above, white light is obtained by mixing the green color from the green light emitting element 4 with the converted color synthesized from the blue light emitting element 3 with the red color by the wavelength conversion filter 7. The green light emitted from the green light emitting element 4 having about four times the luminance of the blue light emitting element 3 remains as a light emitting component, so that high-luminance white light can be emitted. That is, in the conventional example, the wavelength of the blue light emitting element is converted to the green side and the yellow light is converted into the white light by mixing the blue light emitted from the blue light emitting element itself with the blue light emitted from the blue light emitting element itself. The luminance of light emission also decreases. On the other hand, in the present invention, since the light emission of the high-luminance green light-emitting element 4 is synthesized as it is, the luminance of white light emission is greatly improved as compared with the conventional example.

According to the present invention, as a combination of blue and green light-emitting elements, a green light-emitting element having a high light emission luminance is synthesized with a wavelength-converted blue light using the same light-emitting component. The luminance of light emission can be increased. Therefore, it can be effectively used as a white light source having sufficient luminance, for example, as a backlight of a liquid crystal display, without using many combinations.
