Description

本発明は、青色発光素子と、赤色発光素子とを含む半導体発光装置に関し、特に青色発光素子から出射された光の一部を波長変換して黄色に発色する蛍光体を含有して、透過した青色と蛍光体が発色する黄色とが混色して白色となる蛍光体層を備えた半導体発光装置およびその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a semiconductor light-emitting device including a blue light-emitting element and a red light-emitting element, and in particular, contains a phosphor that converts a part of light emitted from the blue light-emitting element into a yellow color and transmits the light. The present invention relates to a semiconductor light emitting device including a phosphor layer that is mixed with blue and yellow, which is colored by a phosphor, and becomes white, and a method for manufacturing the same.

青色発光素子からの青色の光を波長変換して黄色を発色する蛍光体を含有して、透過した青色と蛍光体が発色する黄色とが混色して白色となる蛍光体層を備えた半導体発光装置がある。この半導体発光装置は、安価に白色を発光させることができるが、発光する光に赤色成分が少ないため演色性が悪い。   Semiconductor light emitting device including a phosphor layer that converts the wavelength of blue light from a blue light emitting element to develop a yellow color, and has a phosphor layer that turns white by mixing the transmitted blue color with the yellow color of the phosphor. There is a device. Although this semiconductor light emitting device can emit white light at low cost, the color rendering property is poor because the emitted light has few red components.

演色性を向上させるために赤色発光素子を加えたものが特許文献1に記載されている。この特許文献1に記載の半導体発光装置を図10および図11に示す。   Patent Document 1 describes a red light emitting element added to improve color rendering. The semiconductor light emitting device described in Patent Document 1 is shown in FIGS.

図10に示す従来の半導体発光装置20は、電極21が設けられた基板22に、青色発光素子23と、赤色発光素子24とが並べて実装されている。青色発光素子23は、蛍光体25を含有する蛍光体層26で被覆され白色系LED部27を構成し、赤色発光素子24は、蛍光体25を含有しない透明樹脂層28で被覆されて、赤色LED部29を構成している。   In the conventional semiconductor light emitting device 20 shown in FIG. 10, a blue light emitting element 23 and a red light emitting element 24 are mounted side by side on a substrate 22 on which an electrode 21 is provided. The blue light emitting element 23 is covered with a phosphor layer 26 containing a phosphor 25 to form a white LED part 27, and the red light emitting element 24 is covered with a transparent resin layer 28 not containing the phosphor 25, and is red. The LED unit 29 is configured.

また図11に示す従来の半導体発光装置30は、蛍光体層26が青色発光素子23と赤色発光素子24の両方を被覆している。
特開2004−55772号公報
Further, in the conventional semiconductor light emitting device 30 shown in FIG. 11, the phosphor layer 26 covers both the blue light emitting element 23 and the red light emitting element 24.
JP 2004-55772 A

しかし、図10に示す従来の半導体発光装置20は、蛍光体層26が青色発光素子23のみを被覆し、透明樹脂層28が赤色発光素子24のみを被覆しているので、蛍光体層26および透明樹脂層28を形成するには、基板22に青色発光素子23と赤色発光素子24とを搭載した状態で、樹脂を2回塗布する必要があり、工程が煩雑である。   However, in the conventional semiconductor light emitting device 20 shown in FIG. 10, since the phosphor layer 26 covers only the blue light emitting element 23 and the transparent resin layer 28 covers only the red light emitting element 24, the phosphor layer 26 and In order to form the transparent resin layer 28, it is necessary to apply the resin twice in a state where the blue light emitting element 23 and the red light emitting element 24 are mounted on the substrate 22, and the process is complicated.

また図11に示す従来の半導体発光装置30は、青色発光素子23のみならず赤色発光素子24をも蛍光体層26が被覆しているので、赤色発光素子24から出射された全ての光は、蛍光体層26に含有される蛍光体25により、その進行が阻害されるので大幅に輝度が低下する。そうなると、輝度を高めるために消費電力の大きい赤色発光素子とする必要があり、電池で駆動される装置には不向きな半導体発光装置となってしまう。   In addition, since the conventional semiconductor light emitting device 30 shown in FIG. 11 covers not only the blue light emitting element 23 but also the red light emitting element 24 with the phosphor layer 26, all the light emitted from the red light emitting element 24 is Since the progress is inhibited by the phosphor 25 contained in the phosphor layer 26, the luminance is greatly reduced. In this case, it is necessary to use a red light-emitting element with high power consumption in order to increase luminance, and the semiconductor light-emitting device becomes unsuitable for a battery-driven device.

そこで本発明は、演色性を維持しつつ、赤色発光素子の輝度低下が少ない半導体発光装置およびその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。   SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor light emitting device and a method for manufacturing the same that maintain a color rendering property while reducing a decrease in luminance of a red light emitting element.

本発明の半導体発光装置は、青色に発光する青色発光素子と赤色に発光する赤色発光素子とが搭載面に搭載され、前記青色発光素子から出射された光の一部を波長変換して黄色に発光する波長変換層を設けた半導体発光装置において、前記波長変換層は、前記青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ前記赤色発光素子の前記搭載面側とは反対側となる主光取り出し面のみが露出するように形成されていることを特徴とする。   In the semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention, a blue light emitting element that emits blue light and a red light emitting element that emits red light are mounted on a mounting surface, and a part of the light emitted from the blue light emitting element is wavelength-converted to yellow. In the semiconductor light emitting device provided with the wavelength conversion layer that emits light, the wavelength conversion layer covers only the blue light emitting element and only the main light extraction surface that is opposite to the mounting surface side of the red light emitting element is exposed. It is formed so that it may do.

また、本発明の半導体発光装置の製造方法は、青色に発光する青色発光素子と赤色に発光する赤色発光素子とが搭載面に搭載され、前記青色発光素子から出射された光の一部を波長変換して黄色に発光する波長変換層が設けられている半導体発光装置の製造方法において、前記赤色発光素子と、前記赤色発光素子より高さが低い前記青色発光素子とを略平面とした搭載面に搭載する搭載工程と、前記波長変換層の厚みを、前記搭載面から前記赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面までとして形成する波長変換層形成工程とを備えたことを特徴とする。   Further, in the method for manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention, a blue light emitting element that emits blue light and a red light emitting element that emits red light are mounted on a mounting surface, and a part of light emitted from the blue light emitting element has a wavelength. In the method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device provided with a wavelength conversion layer that converts and emits yellow light, a mounting surface in which the red light emitting element and the blue light emitting element having a height lower than the red light emitting element are substantially planar And a wavelength conversion layer forming step in which the thickness of the wavelength conversion layer is formed from the mounting surface to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element.

波長変換層が、青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出するように形成されているので、演色性を維持しつつ、赤色発光素子の輝度低下が少ない半導体発光装置とすることができる。   The wavelength conversion layer covers the blue light-emitting element and is formed so that only the main light extraction surface of the red light-emitting element is exposed. It can be a device.

本願の第1の発明は、青色に発光する青色発光素子と赤色に発光する赤色発光素子とが搭載面に搭載され、青色発光素子から出射された光の一部を波長変換して黄色に発光する波長変換層を設けた半導体発光装置において、波長変換層は、青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子の搭載面側とは反対側となる主光取り出し面のみが露出するように形成されていることを特徴としたものである。   In the first invention of the present application, a blue light emitting element that emits blue light and a red light emitting element that emits red light are mounted on the mounting surface, and a part of the light emitted from the blue light emitting element is wavelength-converted to emit yellow light. In the semiconductor light emitting device provided with the wavelength conversion layer, the wavelength conversion layer is formed so as to cover the blue light emitting element and expose only the main light extraction surface opposite to the mounting surface side of the red light emitting element. It is characterized by being.

波長変換層が、青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出するように形成されているので、青色発光素子から出射された光の波長を変換しても、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面から出射された光を阻害しないので、赤色発光素子の輝度低下を少ないものとすることができる。   Since the wavelength conversion layer covers the blue light emitting element and is formed so that only the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element is exposed, even if the wavelength of the light emitted from the blue light emitting element is converted, the red Since the light emitted from the main light extraction surface of the light emitting element is not hindered, the reduction in luminance of the red light emitting element can be reduced.

波長変換層を形成する際には、波長変換層の厚みを、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面に合わせて調整するだけで、青色発光素子を被覆しても、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出する波長変換層が、容易に形成できる。   When forming the wavelength conversion layer, the main light extraction surface of the red light-emitting element can be covered even if the blue light-emitting element is covered by simply adjusting the thickness of the wavelength conversion layer according to the main light extraction surface of the red light-emitting element. It is possible to easily form a wavelength conversion layer that only exposes.

本願の第2の発明は、青色発光素子と赤色発光素子とが略平面とした搭載面に搭載した状態で、赤色発光素子の方が青色発光素子より高く形成されていることを特徴とする。   A second invention of the present application is characterized in that the red light emitting element is formed higher than the blue light emitting element in a state where the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element are mounted on a substantially flat mounting surface.

赤色発光素子の方が青色発光素子より高く形成されているので、搭載面が略平面としても、波長変換層の厚みを赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面に合わせて調整するだけで、青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出する波長変換層を形成することができる。   Since the red light emitting element is formed higher than the blue light emitting element, even if the mounting surface is substantially flat, the blue light emitting element can be simply adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the wavelength conversion layer according to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element. And a wavelength conversion layer in which only the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element is exposed can be formed.

本願の第3の発明は、青色発光素子と赤色発光素子とは、発光させる端子がそれぞれ個別に設けられていることを特徴としたものである。   The third invention of the present application is characterized in that the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element are each provided with a terminal for emitting light.

発光させる端子を、青色発光素子と赤色発光素子とそれぞれ個別に設けているので、赤色発光素子は、白色発光の際の演色性向上に寄与するだけでなく、赤色発光素子のみを点灯や点滅させることができる。従って赤色発光素子を、例えば携帯電話などの装置に実装したときに点灯や点滅に意味を持たせることで、報知手段として機能させることもできる。その場合でも波長変換層が赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面から出射される光を阻害しないため、輝度の低下を少ないものとすることができる。   Since the light emitting terminal is provided separately for the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element, the red light emitting element not only contributes to the improvement of color rendering in white light emission, but also turns on or blinks only the red light emitting element. be able to. Accordingly, when the red light emitting element is mounted on a device such as a mobile phone, it can be made to function as a notification means by giving meaning to lighting and blinking. Even in that case, the wavelength conversion layer does not hinder the light emitted from the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element, so that the decrease in luminance can be reduced.

本願の第4の発明は、青色に発光する青色発光素子と赤色に発光する赤色発光素子とが搭載面に搭載され、青色発光素子から出射された光の一部を波長変換して黄色に発光する波長変換層が設けられている半導体発光装置の製造方法において、赤色発光素子と、赤色発光素子より高さが低い青色発光素子とを略平面とした搭載面に搭載する搭載工程と、波長変換層の厚みを、搭載面から赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面までとして形成する波長変換層形成工程とを備えたことを特徴とする。   According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a blue light emitting element that emits blue light and a red light emitting element that emits red light are mounted on a mounting surface, and a part of light emitted from the blue light emitting element is wavelength-converted to emit yellow light. In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device provided with a wavelength conversion layer, a mounting step of mounting a red light emitting element and a blue light emitting element having a height lower than the red light emitting element on a substantially flat mounting surface, and wavelength conversion And a wavelength conversion layer forming step for forming the layer thickness from the mounting surface to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element.

略平面とした搭載面に搭載した状態で、赤色発光素子より低くなる青色発光素子とし、波長変換層の厚みを、搭載面から赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面までとすることで、青色発光素子を被覆しても、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出する波長変換層を設けた半導体発光装置を製造することができる。従って、波長変換層が、青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出するように形成されているので、青色発光素子から出射された光の波長を変換しても、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面から出射された光を阻害しないので、赤色発光素子の輝度低下を少ないものとすることができる。   A blue light emitting element that is lower than the red light emitting element when mounted on a substantially flat mounting surface, and the thickness of the wavelength conversion layer is from the mounting surface to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element. Even if it coat | covers, the semiconductor light-emitting device provided with the wavelength conversion layer which only the main light extraction surface of a red light emitting element exposes can be manufactured. Accordingly, since the wavelength conversion layer covers the blue light emitting element and is formed so that only the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element is exposed, the wavelength of the light emitted from the blue light emitting element can be converted. In addition, since the light emitted from the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element is not hindered, the luminance of the red light emitting element can be reduced in luminance.

本願の第5の発明は、青色発光素子は、透過性基板にn型半導体とp型半導体とを積層させ、n型半導体にはn側電極、p型半導体にはp側電極が設けられ、n側電極およびp側電極を搭載面側として搭載面に搭載する発光素子であり、搭載工程にて発光素子を搭載面に搭載した後、透過性基板の主光取り出し面となる面を研磨して高さを調整したものに、波長変換層形成工程にて波長変換層を形成することを特徴としたものである。   According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the blue light emitting element, an n-type semiconductor and a p-type semiconductor are stacked on a transparent substrate, the n-type semiconductor is provided with an n-side electrode, and the p-type semiconductor is provided with a p-side electrode. A light-emitting element mounted on the mounting surface with the n-side electrode and the p-side electrode as the mounting surface side. After mounting the light-emitting element on the mounting surface in the mounting process, the surface that becomes the main light extraction surface of the transmissive substrate is polished. Thus, the wavelength conversion layer is formed in the wavelength conversion layer forming step to the height adjusted.

青色発光素子を、透過性基板にn型半導体とp型半導体とを積層させ、n型半導体にはn側電極、p型半導体にはp側電極が設けられたフリップチップ型の発光素子とすると、透明基板を研磨することで、平面とした搭載面に搭載したときに赤色発光素子よりも高さの低い青色発光素子とすることができる。また、この研磨により、青色発光素子から出射された光が波長変換層を通過する距離を調整することができるので、より白色に近い色味とすることができる。   When the blue light emitting element is a flip chip type light emitting element in which an n-type semiconductor and a p-type semiconductor are stacked on a transparent substrate, an n-side semiconductor is provided with an n-side electrode, and a p-type semiconductor is provided with a p-side electrode. By polishing the transparent substrate, a blue light emitting element having a height lower than that of the red light emitting element when mounted on a flat mounting surface can be obtained. Moreover, since the distance which the light radiate | emitted from the blue light emitting element passes the wavelength conversion layer can be adjusted by this grinding | polishing, it can be set as the color nearer to white.

本願の第6の発明は、波長変換層形成工程は、搭載面から赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面までとした厚みに形成され、青色発光素子および赤色発光素子が搭載面に搭載された位置に、青色発光素子および赤色発光素子が収容される収容部を設けたスクリーンマスクを、青色発光素子および赤色発光素子に収容部を合わせて搭載面に載置し、収納部に波長変換層となる樹脂を充填し、スクリーンマスクの表面を均して波長変換層を形成することを特徴としたものである。   In a sixth invention of the present application, the wavelength conversion layer forming step is formed to have a thickness from the mounting surface to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element, and at a position where the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element are mounted on the mounting surface. A screen mask provided with a housing part for housing the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element is placed on the mounting surface with the housing part being aligned with the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element, and the resin serving as a wavelength conversion layer in the housing part And a wavelength conversion layer is formed by leveling the surface of the screen mask.

波長変換層形成工程は、スクリーン印刷法を用いて行うことができる。その際に、スクリーンマスクとして、搭載面から赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面までとした厚みに形成され、青色発光素子および赤色発光素子が搭載面に搭載される位置に、青色発光素子および赤色発光素子が収容される収容部を設けたものを使用することで、青色発光素子を被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面のみが露出した波長変換層を容易に形成することができる。これは従来の半導体発光装置の樹脂変換層を形成する際に用いるスクリーンマスクに、搭載面から赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面までの厚みとするだけで、工程の追加などは必要がない。   The wavelength conversion layer forming step can be performed using a screen printing method. At that time, the screen mask is formed to have a thickness from the mounting surface to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element, and the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element are disposed at the positions where the blue light emitting element and the red light emitting element are mounted on the mounting surface. By using the one provided with a housing portion for housing the element, it is possible to easily form a wavelength conversion layer that covers the blue light emitting element and exposes only the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element. This is merely a thickness from the mounting surface to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element in the screen mask used when forming the resin conversion layer of the conventional semiconductor light emitting device, and no additional process is required.

本願の第7の発明は、波長変換層形成工程の後に、スクリーンマスクに樹脂を充填して形成した波長変換層の表面を研磨することを特徴としたものである。   The seventh invention of the present application is characterized in that after the wavelength conversion layer forming step, the surface of the wavelength conversion layer formed by filling the screen mask with a resin is polished.

更に、波長変換層を形成した後に、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面を研磨することで、波長変換層をスクリーン印刷法で形成するときに、赤色発光素子の主光取り出し面に僅かながらでも付着した樹脂を除去することができ、より赤色発光素子の輝度の低下を防止することができる。   Furthermore, after forming the wavelength conversion layer, the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element is polished, so that when the wavelength conversion layer is formed by the screen printing method, it adheres to the main light extraction surface of the red light emitting element even slightly. The removed resin can be removed and the luminance of the red light emitting element can be prevented from lowering.

図5に示すように発光素子7は、サファイヤなどの透明基板7aに、n型半導体で形成されたn型半導体層7bと、発光する発光層7cと、p型半導体で形成されたp型半導体層7dとを順次積層し、発光層7cおよびp型半導体層7dの一部をエッチングにて除去してn型半導体層7bを露出させ、露出したn型半導体層7bにn側電極7eを、p型半導体層7dにp側電極7fを設けたものである。この発光素子7は、n側電極7eおよびp側電極7fを搭載面側とし、その反対側となる透明基板7aの上面が主光取り出し面S1となるように、サブマウント素子3aに搭載される。発光素子7の高さは、赤色発光素子3cの場合は約150μm程度に形成され、青色発光素子3bの場合は、約60μm程度に形成されている。   As shown in FIG. 5, the light-emitting element 7 includes a n-type semiconductor layer 7b formed of an n-type semiconductor, a light-emitting layer 7c that emits light, and a p-type semiconductor formed of a p-type semiconductor on a transparent substrate 7a such as sapphire.

The height of the light emitting element 7 is about 150 μm in the case of the red light emitting element 3c, and is about 60 μm in the case of the blue light emitting element 3b.

図4に戻って、蛍光体層8は、青色発光素子3bからの光を波長変換して黄色を発色する蛍光体(図示せず)を含有させた樹脂で形成された波長変換層である。蛍光体層8は、サブマウント素子3aの搭載面上に、青色発光素子3bを被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1のみが露出するように、平面視して矩形状に形成されている。従って、蛍光体層8の厚みは、サブマウント素子3aの搭載面から赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1までとなるので、約150μmに形成されている。   Returning to FIG. 4, the phosphor layer 8 is a wavelength conversion layer formed of a resin containing a phosphor (not shown) that changes the wavelength of light from the blue light emitting element 3 b to develop yellow. The phosphor layer 8 is formed in a rectangular shape in plan view so as to cover the blue light emitting element 3b on the mounting surface of the submount element 3a and to expose only the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c. Has been. Therefore, the phosphor layer 8 has a thickness of about 150 μm since it extends from the mounting surface of the submount element 3a to the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c.

図1および図2に示すように、樹脂パッケージ5は、例えば透明エポキシ等の樹脂で形成されている。樹脂パッケージ5は、平面視して矩形状に形成され、一方の側面から第1の電極部2aおよび第2の電極部2bが、他方の側面から第3の電極部2cおよび第4の電極部2dが突出した基台部5aと、略半球状に形成されたレンズ部5bとを備えている。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the resin package 5 is formed of a resin such as transparent epoxy. The resin package 5 is formed in a rectangular shape in plan view, and the first electrode portion 2a and the second electrode portion 2b are formed from one side surface, and the third electrode portion 2c and the fourth electrode portion are formed from the other side surface. The base part 5a from which 2d protruded and the lens part 5b formed in the substantially hemispherical shape are provided.

以上のように構成される本発明の実施の形態に係る半導体発光装置の製造方法を図1から図8に基づいて説明する。図6から図8は、本発明の実施の形態に係る半導体発光装置の製造方法を説明する図である。   A method of manufacturing the semiconductor light emitting device according to the embodiment of the present invention configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8 are views for explaining a method of manufacturing a semiconductor light emitting device according to the embodiment of the present invention.

まず青色発光素子3bと赤色発光素子3cとを準備する。図6に示すように、3個ずつ青色発光素子3bを、図3で示される配置となるように合わせて、サブマウント素子3aの元となる平板状の集合基板10にAuバンプを介して搭載する。   First, a blue light emitting element 3b and a red light emitting element 3c are prepared. As shown in FIG. 6, the blue light emitting elements 3b are mounted three by three on the flat aggregate substrate 10 serving as the base of the submount element 3a through Au bumps so as to have the arrangement shown in FIG. To do.

集合基板10に搭載した青色発光素子3bの透明基板7a(図5参照)の主光取り出し面S1の研磨を行い、サブマウント素子3aの搭載面となる面からそれぞれの青色発光素子3bの高さが均一となるように調整する。白色の色度は、青色発光素子3bを蛍光体層8に被覆したときに、光が蛍光体層8内を通過する距離によって決定される。例えば青色発光素子3bのn側電極7eおよびp側電極7fの先端から、透明基板7aの主光取り出し面S1までが短いと、蛍光体層8に被覆されたときに、光が透明基板7aから出射され蛍光体層8内を通過する距離が長くなってしまい、蛍光体の励起が多く発生することで黄色が強い白色となる。従って、青色発光素子3bを複数準備したときに、白色の色度を合わせるため、青色発光素子3bの透明基板7aの主光取り出し面S1を研磨することで、それぞれの青色発光素子3bの高さを均一とし、光が蛍光体層8内を通過する距離を合わせている。この研磨により、青色発光素子3bは、製造当初約90μmであったものが、この研磨により約60μm程度となる。   The main light extraction surface S1 of the transparent substrate 7a (see FIG. 5) of the blue light emitting element 3b mounted on the collective substrate 10 is polished, and the height of each blue light emitting element 3b from the surface to be the mounting surface of the submount element 3a. Adjust so that is uniform. The chromaticity of white is determined by the distance that light passes through the phosphor layer 8 when the blue light emitting element 3b is coated on the phosphor layer 8. For example, if the distance from the tips of the n-side electrode 7e and the p-side electrode 7f of the blue light emitting element 3b to the main light extraction surface S1 of the transparent substrate 7a is short, when the phosphor layer 8 is covered, light is transmitted from the transparent substrate 7a. The distance that the light is emitted and passes through the phosphor layer 8 becomes long, and the excitation of the phosphor occurs much, so that yellow becomes a strong white color. Therefore, when a plurality of blue light emitting elements 3b are prepared, the main light extraction surface S1 of the transparent substrate 7a of the blue light emitting element 3b is polished to adjust the white chromaticity, thereby increasing the height of each blue light emitting element 3b. And the distance through which the light passes through the phosphor layer 8 is matched. By this polishing, the blue light emitting element 3b, which was originally about 90 μm, becomes about 60 μm by this polishing.

次に、図7に示すように、赤色発光素子3cをそれぞれの所定の位置に、Auバンプを介して集合基板10に搭載して搭載工程を完了する。   Next, as shown in FIG. 7, the red light emitting elements 3c are mounted on the collective substrate 10 via Au bumps at respective predetermined positions, thereby completing the mounting process.

搭載工程が完了すると、波長変換層である蛍光体層8を形成する波長変換層形成工程を行う。この工程は、スクリーン印刷法を用いて行われる。まず図8に示すように、赤色発光素子3cと青色発光素子3bとを搭載した集合基板10の上方にスクリーンマスク9を配置する。   When the mounting process is completed, a wavelength conversion layer forming process for forming the phosphor layer 8 which is a wavelength conversion layer is performed. This step is performed using a screen printing method. First, as shown in FIG. 8, the screen mask 9 is disposed above the collective substrate 10 on which the red light emitting element 3c and the blue light emitting element 3b are mounted.

スクリーンマスク9は、サブマウント素子3aとなる集合基板10の搭載面から赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1までとした厚みに形成され、青色発光素子3bおよび赤色発光素子3cが搭載面に搭載された位置に収容部9aを設けた板である。   The screen mask 9 is formed to have a thickness from the mounting surface of the collective substrate 10 to be the submount element 3a to the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c, and the blue light emitting element 3b and the red light emitting element 3c are mounted on the mounting surface. It is the board which provided the accommodating part 9a in the made position.

このスクリーンマスク9を、収容部9aに赤色発光素子3cおよび青色発光素子3bを収容するように、サブマウント素子3a上に載置する。そして収容部9aに蛍光体を含有する樹脂を充填して、スクリーンマスク9の上面をスキージなどで均す。蛍光体を含有する樹脂が硬化すると蛍光体層8となる。   This screen mask 9 is placed on the submount element 3a so that the red light emitting element 3c and the blue light emitting element 3b are accommodated in the accommodating portion 9a. The housing portion 9a is filled with a resin containing a phosphor, and the upper surface of the screen mask 9 is leveled with a squeegee or the like. When the resin containing the phosphor is cured, the phosphor layer 8 is formed.

スクリーンマスク9として、サブマウント素子3aの搭載面から赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1までとした厚みに形成され、青色発光素子3bおよび赤色発光素子3cが搭載面に搭載される位置に収容部9aを設けたものを使用することで、青色発光素子3bを被覆し、かつ赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1のみが露出した蛍光体層8を容易に形成することができる。   The screen mask 9 is formed to have a thickness from the mounting surface of the submount element 3a to the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c, and is accommodated in a position where the blue light emitting element 3b and the red light emitting element 3c are mounted on the mounting surface. By using what provided the part 9a, the fluorescent substance layer 8 which coat | covered the blue light emitting element 3b and exposed only the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c can be formed easily.

更に、スクリーンマスク9の収容部9aに樹脂を充填して形成した蛍光体層8の表面を研磨する。蛍光体層8の表面を研磨することで、露出した赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1が研磨されることとなる。そうすることで蛍光体層8をスクリーン印刷法で形成するときに、赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1に僅かながらでも付着した樹脂を除去することができ、より赤色発光素子3cの輝度の低下を防止することができる。   Further, the surface of the phosphor layer 8 formed by filling the accommodating portion 9a of the screen mask 9 with resin is polished. By polishing the surface of the phosphor layer 8, the exposed main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c is polished. By doing so, when the phosphor layer 8 is formed by the screen printing method, the resin adhering to the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c can be removed even slightly, and the luminance of the red light emitting element 3c can be further improved. A decrease can be prevented.

蛍光体層8の研磨が完了すると、集合基板10をダイシングして、青色発光素子3bと赤色発光素子3cとを搭載したサブマウント素子3aの個片とする。   When the polishing of the phosphor layer 8 is completed, the collective substrate 10 is diced into individual pieces of submount elements 3a on which the blue light emitting element 3b and the red light emitting element 3c are mounted.

そして、蛍光体層8が設けられ、個片としたサブマウント素子3aをAgペースト等の接着剤を介してリードフレーム2の搭載部2eに搭載する。サブマウント素子3aの配線パターン3a−1と、リードフレーム2の第1の電極部2aから第4の電極部2dまでとを、それぞれワイヤ4で接続する。最後に、トランスファー成形法にて、樹脂パッケージ5を成形する。   Then, the phosphor layer 8 is provided, and the submount element 3a as a single piece is mounted on the mounting portion 2e of the lead frame 2 via an adhesive such as Ag paste. The wiring pattern 3a-1 of the submount element 3a and the first electrode portion 2a to the fourth electrode portion 2d of the lead frame 2 are connected by wires 4 respectively. Finally, the resin package 5 is molded by a transfer molding method.

次に、本発明の実施の形態に係る半導体発光装置の使用状態を説明する。   Next, a usage state of the semiconductor light emitting device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.

まず白色発光させるときは、第1の電極部2aから第4の電極部2dへそれぞれ所定の電圧を印加する。電圧を印加することで、1個の赤色発光素子3cおよび3個の青色発光素子3bへそれぞれ電流が流れ発光する。青色発光素子3bから出射された光は蛍光体層8内を通過するときに、蛍光体層8に含有される蛍光体が励起して黄色に発光する光と、そのまま通過した青色の光とが混色して白色となり樹脂パッケージ5へ入射する。蛍光体層8は、青色発光素子3bの周囲だけでなく、赤色発光素子3cの周囲を囲うように形成されているので、青色発光素子3bの周囲だけでなく、赤色発光素子3cの周囲も白色に発光しているように見える。そして、赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1から出射された光は、主光取り出し面S1が蛍光体層8から露出しているので、光の進行の阻害なしに樹脂パッケージ5内へ入射させることができる。従って、主光取り出し面S1から出射された光は、蛍光体層8による輝度の低下がないので、赤色発光素子3cの側方の周囲に蛍光体層8が形成されているものの、主光取り出し面S1を蛍光体層8から露出させることで、照明装置として演色性を維持しつつ、赤色発光素子の輝度低下を少ないものとすることができる。   First, when white light is emitted, a predetermined voltage is applied from the first electrode portion 2a to the fourth electrode portion 2d. By applying a voltage, a current flows through each of the one red light emitting element 3c and the three blue light emitting elements 3b to emit light. When the light emitted from the blue light emitting element 3b passes through the phosphor layer 8, the phosphor contained in the phosphor layer 8 is excited to emit yellow light and the blue light that has passed through the phosphor layer 8 as it is. The mixed colors become white and enter the resin package 5. The phosphor layer 8 is formed not only around the blue light emitting element 3b but also around the red light emitting element 3c. Therefore, not only around the blue light emitting element 3b but also around the red light emitting element 3c is white. It seems to emit light. The light emitted from the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c is incident on the resin package 5 without hindering the progress of light because the main light extraction surface S1 is exposed from the phosphor layer 8. be able to. Therefore, since the light emitted from the main light extraction surface S1 is not reduced in luminance by the phosphor layer 8, the phosphor layer 8 is formed around the side of the red light emitting element 3c, but the main light extraction is performed. By exposing the surface S <b> 1 from the phosphor layer 8, the luminance reduction of the red light emitting element can be reduced while maintaining the color rendering properties as an illumination device.

また、半導体発光装置1の使用状態としては、例えば、演色性の高い照明装置として使用できる他に、赤色発光素子3cに対応する第4の電極部2dのみに電圧を印加することで、この半導体発光装置1は赤色発光素子3cのみ点灯することができるので、報知手段として機能させることができる。その場合でも蛍光体層8が赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1から出射される光を阻害しないため、輝度の低下を少ないものとすることができる。   Moreover, as a use state of the semiconductor light emitting device 1, for example, it can be used as a lighting device with high color rendering properties, and in addition, the semiconductor light emitting device 1 can be used by applying a voltage only to the fourth electrode portion 2d corresponding to the red light emitting element 3c. Since the light emitting device 1 can light only the red light emitting element 3c, it can function as a notification means. Even in such a case, the phosphor layer 8 does not hinder the light emitted from the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c, so that the reduction in luminance can be reduced.

なお、本実施の形態では、図4に示すようにサブマウント素子3aの搭載面から蛍光体層8の表面までの高さが赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1までの高さと略等しくなるように形成されているが、図9に示すように赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1より低くなるように蛍光体層11を形成してもよい。そうした場合でも、赤色発光素子3cの主光取り出し面S1から出射される光は、蛍光体層11で阻害されないので、演色性を維持しつつ、赤色発光素子3cの輝度低下を少ないものとすることができる点では変わりはない。   In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the height from the mounting surface of the submount element 3a to the surface of the phosphor layer 8 is substantially equal to the height from the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c. However, as shown in FIG. 9, the phosphor layer 11 may be formed so as to be lower than the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c. Even in such a case, the light emitted from the main light extraction surface S1 of the red light emitting element 3c is not hindered by the phosphor layer 11, so that the luminance reduction of the red light emitting element 3c is reduced while maintaining the color rendering. There is no change in that it can.

本発明は、演色性を維持しつつ、赤色発光素子の輝度低下を少ないものとすることができるので、青色発光素子と、赤色発光素子とを含む半導体発光装置に関し、特に青色発光素子から出射された光を波長変換する蛍光体を含有して、透過した青色と蛍光体が発色する黄色とが混色して白色となる蛍光体層を備えた半導体発光装置に好適である。   The present invention can reduce the luminance reduction of the red light emitting element while maintaining the color rendering, and thus relates to a semiconductor light emitting device including a blue light emitting element and a red light emitting element, and in particular, emitted from the blue light emitting element. It is suitable for a semiconductor light emitting device that includes a phosphor that converts the wavelength of the emitted light and has a phosphor layer in which the transmitted blue color and the yellow color of the phosphor are mixed to become white.
