上述した従来の光源装置は、半導体発光素子チップを載置するリードフレームからなり、半導体発光素子チップを載置するリードフレームや半導体発光素子チップを含み光源装置のケースとなる部分を反射性樹脂等でインサートモールド成形し、半導体発光素子チップをダイボンドし、その後ケースの周壁に囲まれた開口部へ透明樹脂等を充填し得ている。このため、光源装置単体として完成されたものであるために、導光板等との接続が機械的に行えても光学的には空気層を備えてしまい、空気層でのロス(吸収)を起して効率を悪くし、空気層での屈折による光の偏向や拡散により反射や吸収をして光の効率に課題があるとともに特に小型の部品等には寸法的な課題がある。   The above-described conventional light source device includes a lead frame on which a semiconductor light emitting element chip is mounted, and a lead frame on which the semiconductor light emitting element chip is mounted and a portion that includes the semiconductor light emitting element chip and serves as a case of the light source device is made of a reflective resin or the like.

For this reason, loss (absorption) in the air layer is caused and efficiency is deteriorated, and reflection and absorption are caused by deflection and diffusion of light due to refraction in the air layer, and there is a problem in light efficiency. There is a problem that becomes large.

また、従来のバックライト装置として、導光板の下方に備えた基板上にLEDを備えて導光板の表面側の端側面の一部を傾斜面にし、その傾斜面の位置の基板上のLEDからの出射光を導光板裏面部から傾斜面に向け、傾斜面にて反射させ導光板の他方に光を拡散させているものでは、バックライトの厚さ方向が厚くなってしまう課題がある。   Further, as a conventional backlight device, an LED is provided on a substrate provided below the light guide plate, and a part of the end side surface on the surface side of the light guide plate is inclined, and the LED on the substrate at the position of the inclined surface is used. Is emitted from the rear surface of the light guide plate toward the inclined surface and reflected by the inclined surface to diffuse the light to the other side of the light guide plate, there is a problem that the thickness direction of the backlight is increased.

That is, when the semiconductor light emitting device chip in the light source device is placed on the substrate, the crystal substrate side such as an epi substrate of the semiconductor light emitting device chip is placed, and generally the direction opposite to the placement is the emission surface (opening portion). However, in the present invention, the direction perpendicular to the crystal substrate (the side direction of the light emitting layer, not the surface direction of the light emitting layer) is the side surface direction, and any one of the four side surfaces is the output surface. Provided with a resin surrounding wall other than the exit surface to surround the chip, providing a thin light source device and entering with the exit surface of the light source device and the incident end surface portion of the light guide plate in contact with each other The space between the end face and the surrounding wall is filled with a transparent resin to seal the semiconductor light emitting element chip, and the light source device and the light guide plate are adhesively connected with the transparent resin so that the emitted light from the semiconductor light emitting element chip is directly put into the light guide plate. Guide, thin and best light There is provided a planar illumination device using the limited.

Provided is a flat illumination device in which a surrounding wall is provided by the resin, and a transparent resin is filled inside the surrounding wall to seal a semiconductor light emitting element chip, and the light source device and the light guide plate are bonded and connected with the transparent resin.

さらに、光源装置や半導体発光素子チップを透明樹脂で充填および封止した上部に反射体または遮光体を設けて、外部に漏れなくする光源装置および平面照明装置を提供している。   Furthermore, a light source device and a flat illumination device are provided which are provided with a reflector or a light-shielding body on an upper portion where a light source device or a semiconductor light emitting element chip is filled and sealed with a transparent resin so as not to leak outside.

平面照明装置1は、図1に示すように、ケース11の中に反射体13、導光板10と光源装置2とを接着接続し一体化した光源装置2付の導光板10と、光源装置2上に載置する遮光体12から成る構成である。なお、導光板10と光源装置2とは、導光板10の入射端面部8と光源装置2の出射部7とを透明樹脂で接着接続した一体化のものである。   As shown in FIG. 1, the flat illumination device 1 includes a light guide plate 10 with a light source device 2 in which a reflector 13, a light guide plate 10, and a light source device 2 are bonded and integrated in a case 11, and the light source device 2. It is the structure which consists of the light-shielding body 12 mounted on top. The light guide plate 10 and the light source device 2 are an integrated unit in which the incident end face portion 8 of the light guide plate 10 and the emission portion 7 of the light source device 2 are bonded and connected with a transparent resin.

導光板10は、屈折率が1.4〜1.7程度の透明なアクリル樹脂(PMMA)やポリカーボネート(PC)等で形成される。導光板10は、図7(a)に示すように、光源装置2からの光を導く入射端面部8と、入射端面部8からの光を出射する出射面部10dと、この出射面部10dの反対側に位置する反出射面部10eと、これら出射面部10dと反出射面部10eとに交わる側面部8cとから成る。   The light guide plate 10 is formed of a transparent acrylic resin (PMMA) or polycarbonate (PC) having a refractive index of about 1.4 to 1.7. As shown in FIG. 7A, the light guide plate 10 includes an incident end face portion 8 that guides light from the light source device 2, an exit face portion 10d that emits light from the incident end face portion 8, and the opposite of the exit face portion 10d. It consists of a counter-exit surface portion 10e located on the side, and a side surface portion 8c that intersects the output surface portion 10d and the counter-exit surface portion 10e.

なお、図示しないが、導光板10の出射面部10dや反出射面部10eには、光を効率良く外部に出射するように各種の形状をした微細なドットや溝等を設けてある。その際の各種の形状は、微細な円弧状、微細な楕円、微細な多角柱、微細なプリズム、微細な多角錐、多角台形錐等があり、これらの形状の加工を出射面部10dや反出射面部10eに施す。   Although not shown in the drawings, the exit surface portion 10d and the counter-exit surface portion 10e of the light guide plate 10 are provided with fine dots, grooves, and the like having various shapes so as to efficiently emit light to the outside. Various shapes in this case include a fine arc shape, a fine ellipse, a fine polygonal column, a fine prism, a fine polygonal pyramid, a polygonal trapezoidal cone, and the like. It is applied to the surface portion 10e.

導光板10に入射した光は、屈折率γが0≦|γ|≦Sin-1(1/n)の式を満たす範囲で導光板10内に進む。例えば一般の導光板10に使用されている樹脂材料であるアクリル樹脂の屈折率はn=1.49程度であるので、最大入射角は、入射端面部8の出射面部10d方向から反出射面部10e方向への光および反出射面部10e方向から出射面部10d方向への光が入射角90°となり、入射端面部8で屈折する屈折角γはγ=0〜±42°程度の範囲内になる。 The light incident on the light guide plate 10 travels into the light guide plate 10 in a range where the refractive index γ satisfies the expression 0 ≦ | γ | ≦ Sin −1 (1 / n). For example, since the refractive index of acrylic resin, which is a resin material used for the general light guide plate 10, is about n = 1.49, the maximum incident angle is from the exit surface portion 10 d direction of the entrance end surface portion 8 to the opposite exit surface portion 10 e. The light in the direction and the light from the counter-exiting surface portion 10e direction to the emitting surface portion 10d direction have an incident angle of 90 °, and the refraction angle γ refracted at the incident end surface portion 8 is in a range of γ = 0 to ± 42 °.

さらに、屈折角γ=0〜±42°の範囲内で導光板10内に入射した光は、導光板10と空気層(屈折率n=1)との境界面において、Sinα=(1/n)の式により臨界角を表わすことができる。例えば一般の導光板10に使用されている樹脂材料であるアクリル樹脂の屈折率はn=1.49程度であるので、臨界角αはα=42°程度になる。そして、導光板10の出射面部10dや反出射面部10eに光線を偏向する凸や凹等が無かったり、臨界角αを越えなければ導光板10内の光は出射面部10dや反出射面部10eで全て全反射しながら入射端面部8の反対方向へ進むことになる。   Further, the light incident on the light guide plate 10 within the range of the refraction angle γ = 0 to ± 42 ° is expressed as Sin α = (1 / n) at the boundary surface between the light guide plate 10 and the air layer (refractive index n = 1). ) Can be used to express the critical angle. For example, since the refractive index of acrylic resin, which is a resin material used for the general light guide plate 10, is about n = 1.49, the critical angle α is about α = 42 °. If the light exiting surface 10d and the light exiting surface 10e of the light guide plate 10 have no projections or depressions for deflecting light rays, or if the critical angle α is not exceeded, the light in the light guide plate 10 is transmitted through the light exiting surface 10d and the light exiting surface 10e.

The semiconductor light emitting device chip in a state where the light guide plate 10 (10a) and the light source device 2 not forming the surrounding wall 5 are in contact with each other so that the end surface portion 8 (recess 8a) and the emission portion 7 of the chip emission surface 9c face each other. A surrounding wall 5 including a side surface 9c other than the chip emitting surface 9c (outgoing portion 7) is provided by a resin having reflectivity and light shielding properties so as to surround the substrate 9, and at the same time, the inside of the surrounding wall 5 is filled with a transparent resin 14 to emit light from the semiconductor The element chip 9 is sealed and light is transmitted by the transparent resin 14.

このように、平面照明装置1は、光源装置2のチップ出射面9cの出射部7と導光板10(10a)の入射端面部8(凹部8a)とが対向するように導光板10(10a)と光源装置2とを接触させた状態で入射端面部8(凹部8a)と囲壁5との空間に透明樹脂14を充填し、半導体発光素子チップ9を封止するとともに透明樹脂14で光源装置2と導光板10(10a)とを接着接続し、チップ出射面9cの出射部7からの出射光を直接導光板10(10a)内に導くので、導光板10(10a)と光源装置2との間に空気層を有し無いで空気層でのロスとなる屈折が無く、光の偏向や拡散による他への反射や吸収を防止できて効率が良く、光源装置2と導光板10(10a)とを接着接続することができる。   As described above, the flat illumination device 1 includes the light guide plate 10 (10a) so that the emission portion 7 of the chip emission surface 9c of the light source device 2 and the incident end surface portion 8 (concave portion 8a) of the light guide plate 10 (10a) face each other. In a state where the light source device 2 is in contact with the light source device 2, the space between the incident end surface portion 8 (recessed portion 8 a) and the surrounding wall 5 is filled with the transparent resin 14 to seal the semiconductor light emitting element chip 9 and the light source device 2 with the transparent resin 14. And the light guide plate 10 (10a) are bonded to each other, and the emitted light from the emission portion 7 of the chip emission surface 9c is directly guided into the light guide plate 10 (10a). Therefore, the light guide plate 10 (10a) and the light source device 2 are connected to each other. Since there is no air layer between them, there is no refraction that causes loss in the air layer, and reflection and absorption due to light deflection and diffusion can be prevented and the light source device 2 and the light guide plate 10 (10a) are efficient. And can be adhesively connected.

さらに、同様に光源装置2の作成時に囲壁5を形成せず、基板3上に半導体発光素子チップ9を載置(但し、ダイボンディングやワイヤーボンド処理後)した状態で光源装置2のチップ出射面9cの出射部7と導光板10(10a)の入射端面部8(凹部8a)とが対向するように導光板10(10a)と光源装置2とを接触させた状態で同時に囲壁5の作成と囲壁5の内側への透明樹脂14の充填とを行い、半導体発光素子チップ9を封止するとともに透明樹脂14で光源装置2と導光板10(10a)とを接着接続する方法も上記と同様の作用効果が得られ、この方法では上記に加えて生産性の向上や信頼性の向上を得ることができる。   Further, similarly, when the light source device 2 is created, the surrounding wall 5 is not formed, and the semiconductor light emitting element chip 9 is mounted on the substrate 3 (but after die bonding or wire bonding), and the chip emission surface of the light source device 2 In the state where the light guide plate 10 (10a) and the light source device 2 are in contact with each other so that the light emitting portion 7 of 9c and the incident end face portion 8 (concave portion 8a) of the light guide plate 10 (10a) face each other, The method of filling the inside of the surrounding wall 5 with the transparent resin 14 to seal the semiconductor light emitting element chip 9 and bonding and connecting the light source device 2 and the light guide plate 10 (10a) with the transparent resin 14 is the same as described above.

さらに、平面照明装置1は、半導体発光素子チップ9を導光板10bの穴状8dに挿入し、導光板10bと光源装置2とを接触させた状態で半導体発光素子チップ9を封止するように穴状部8dに透明樹脂14を充填し、透明樹脂14で光源装置2と導光板10bの入射面部8bとを接着接続し、導光板10bと光源装置2との間に空気層が無く、チップ出射面9cの出射部7からの出射光を直接導光板10b内に導き、光源装置2のチップ出射面9cからの全ての出射光を導光板10b内に導くことができ、空気層でのロス(吸収)や空気層による屈折が無く光の偏向や拡散による他への反射を防止でき、効率良く導光板10b内に導くことができる。   Further, the flat illumination device 1 inserts the semiconductor light emitting element chip 9 into the hole 8d of the light guide plate 10b, and seals the semiconductor light emitting element chip 9 with the light guide plate 10b and the light source device 2 in contact with each other. The hole portion 8d is filled with a transparent resin 14, the light source device 2 and the incident surface portion 8b of the light guide plate 10b are adhesively connected with the transparent resin 14, and there is no air layer between the light guide plate 10b and the light source device 2, and the chip The light emitted from the light emitting portion 7 of the light emission surface 9c can be directly guided into the light guide plate 10b, and all the light emitted from the chip light emission surface 9c of the light source device 2 can be guided into the light guide plate 10b. There is no refraction due to (absorption) or air layer, reflection of light due to deflection or diffusion can be prevented, and the light can be efficiently guided into the light guide plate 10b.

And size can be reduced.

さらに、光源装置2の半導体発光素子チップ9を透明樹脂14で封止することと光源装置2と導光板10bとを接着接続することとが同時にでき、生産性を向上することができるとともに信頼性の向上および小型化することができる。   Furthermore, the semiconductor light emitting element chip 9 of the light source device 2 can be simultaneously sealed with the transparent resin 14, and the light source device 2 and the light guide plate 10b can be bonded and connected at the same time, thereby improving productivity and reliability.
