(Light-emitting device according to the first embodiment)
1 is a perspective view of the light emitting device according to the first embodiment, FIG. 2A is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA ′ of FIG. 1, and FIG. 2B is a line BB ′ of FIG. It is sectional drawing. 2 (a) and 2 (b), the light emitted from the LED element is indicated by a one-dot chain line.

発光装置1は、基板10と、LED素子11と、封止部材12と、光学部材13とを有する。   The light emitting device 1 includes a substrate 10, an LED element 11, a sealing member 12, and an optical member 13.

基板10は、アルミニウム等の熱伝導率が高い金属で形成される基板である。基板10は、第1辺101、第1辺に対向する第2辺102、第1辺101及び第2辺102に直交する第3辺103及び第3辺に対向する第4辺104とに囲まれた表面105と、表面105の反対の裏面106とを有する。   The substrate 10 is a substrate formed of a metal having a high thermal conductivity such as aluminum. The substrate 10 is surrounded by a first side 101, a second side 102 that faces the first side, a third side 103 that is orthogonal to the first side 101 and the second side 102, and a fourth side 104 that faces the third side. And a back surface 106 opposite to the front surface 105.

基板10は、LED素子11を搭載する表面105に不図示の配線パターンが形成されると共に、表面105の反対側の裏面106にアノード及びカソードとも称される不図示の一対の電極が配置される。基板10の表面105に形成される配線パターンと、基板10の裏面106に形成されるアノード及びカソードのそれぞれとは、不図示のビアを介して電気的に接続される。発光装置1は、基板10の裏面106に配置されるアノードとカソードとの間に所定の直流電圧が印加されることに応じて発光する。基板10は、金属で形成される実装基板と、ガラスエポキシ基板等の回路基板とにより形成されてもよい。   In the substrate 10, a wiring pattern (not shown) is formed on the front surface 105 on which the LED element 11 is mounted, and a pair of electrodes (not shown) also called an anode and a cathode are arranged on the back surface 106 on the opposite side of the front surface 105. . The wiring pattern formed on the front surface 105 of the substrate 10 and each of the anode and the cathode formed on the back surface 106 of the substrate 10 are electrically connected via vias (not shown). The light emitting device 1 emits light in response to a predetermined DC voltage applied between an anode and a cathode disposed on the back surface 106 of the substrate 10. The substrate 10 may be formed of a mounting substrate made of metal and a circuit substrate such as a glass epoxy substrate.

LED素子11は、発光素子の一例であり、例えば発光波長帯域が450〜460nm程度の青色光を発光する略正方形の青色LEDである。LED素子11の下面は、透明な絶縁性の接着剤等により、基板10の表面105に固定されて、基板10に搭載される。また、LED素子11は上面に一対の素子電極を有し、基板10の表面105に形成される配線パターンに不図示のワイヤにより電気的に接続される。基板10の裏面106に配置されるアノードとカソードとの間に所定の直流電圧が印加されることに応じて、順方向電流が流れて光を放射する。   The LED element 11 is an example of a light emitting element, and is, for example, a substantially square blue LED that emits blue light having an emission wavelength band of about 450 to 460 nm. The lower surface of the LED element 11 is fixed to the surface 105 of the substrate 10 by a transparent insulating adhesive or the like and mounted on the substrate 10. The LED element 11 has a pair of element electrodes on the upper surface, and is electrically connected to a wiring pattern formed on the surface 105 of the substrate 10 by a wire (not shown). In response to application of a predetermined DC voltage between the anode and the cathode disposed on the back surface 106 of the substrate 10, forward current flows to emit light.

封止部材12は、シリコーン樹脂等の無色且つ透明な合成樹脂によって形成され、LED素子11を保護し且つ封止する。また、封止部材12には、黄色蛍光体等の蛍光体が分散混入される。黄色蛍光体は、LED素子11が出射した青色光を吸収して黄色光に波長変換する、例えばYAG(yttrium aluminum garnet)等の粒子状の蛍光体材料である。発光装置1は、青色LEDであるLED素子11からの青色光と、それによって黄色蛍光体を励起させて得られる黄色光とを混合させることで得られる白色光を出射する。   The sealing member 12 is formed of a colorless and transparent synthetic resin such as a silicone resin, and protects and seals the LED element 11. In addition, a phosphor such as a yellow phosphor is dispersed and mixed in the sealing member 12. The yellow phosphor is a particulate phosphor material such as YAG (yttrium aluminum garnet) that absorbs blue light emitted from the LED element 11 and converts the wavelength into yellow light. The light emitting device 1 emits white light obtained by mixing blue light from the LED element 11 which is a blue LED and yellow light obtained by exciting the yellow phosphor thereby.

また、封止部材12は、例えば緑色蛍光体と赤色蛍光体等の複数種類の蛍光体を含有してもよい。緑色蛍光体は、LED素子11が出射した青色光を吸収して緑色光に波長変換する(BaSr)2SiO4:Eu2+等の粒子状の蛍光体材料である。赤色蛍光体は、LED素子11が出射した青色光を吸収して赤色光に波長変換するフッ化物蛍光体(K2SiF6:Mn4+(KSF))等の粒子状の蛍光体材料である。この場合、発光装置1は、青色LEDであるLED素子11からの青色光と、青色光によって緑色蛍光体及び赤色蛍光体を励起させて得られる緑色光及び赤色光とを混合させることで得られる白色光を出射する。 Further, the sealing member 12 may contain a plurality of types of phosphors such as a green phosphor and a red phosphor. The green phosphor is a particulate phosphor material such as (BaSr) 2 SiO 4 : Eu 2+ that absorbs blue light emitted from the LED element 11 and converts the wavelength into green light. The red phosphor is a particulate phosphor material such as a fluoride phosphor (K 2 SiF 6 : Mn 4+ (KSF)) that absorbs blue light emitted from the LED element 11 and converts the wavelength into red light. . In this case, the light emitting device 1 is obtained by mixing blue light from the LED element 11 that is a blue LED and green light and red light obtained by exciting the green phosphor and the red phosphor with the blue light. White light is emitted.

Each of the first reflection surface 131, the second reflection surface 132, the third reflection surface 133, and the fourth reflection surface 134 has a parabolic cross section at the center and a central portion as it is separated from the center in the lateral direction. The parabolic shape is formed so as to be gradually flattened.

第1反射面131は、LED素子11から放射された光の一部を基板10の表面105に平行であり且つ基板10の第1辺101に直交する第1方向に反射する。第2反射面132は、LED素子11から放射された光の一部を基板10の表面105に平行であり且つ基板10の第2辺102に直交する第2方向に反射する。第2反射面132が光を反射する第2方向は、第1反射面131が光を反射する第1方向の反対の方向である。   The first reflecting surface 131 reflects a part of the light emitted from the LED element 11 in a first direction parallel to the surface 105 of the substrate 10 and orthogonal to the first side 101 of the substrate 10. The second reflecting surface 132 reflects a part of the light emitted from the LED element 11 in a second direction parallel to the surface 105 of the substrate 10 and orthogonal to the second side 102 of the substrate 10. The second direction in which the second reflecting surface 132 reflects light is a direction opposite to the first direction in which the first reflecting surface 131 reflects light.

第3反射面133は、LED素子11から放射された光の一部を基板10の表面105に平行であり且つ基板10の第3辺103に直交する第3方向に反射する。第3反射面133が光を反射する第3方向は、第1反射面131及び第2反射面132が光を反射する第1方向及び第2方向に直交する方向である。第4反射面134は、LED素子11から放射された光の一部を基板10の表面105に平行であり且つ基板10の第4辺104に直交する第4方向に反射する。第4反射面134が光を反射する第4方向は、第3反射面133が光を反射する第3方向の反対の方向である。   The third reflecting surface 133 reflects a part of the light emitted from the LED element 11 in a third direction parallel to the surface 105 of the substrate 10 and orthogonal to the third side 103 of the substrate 10. The third direction in which the third reflecting surface 133 reflects light is a direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction in which the first reflecting surface 131 and the second reflecting surface 132 reflect light. The fourth reflecting surface 134 reflects a part of the light emitted from the LED element 11 in a fourth direction parallel to the surface 105 of the substrate 10 and orthogonal to the fourth side 104 of the substrate 10. The fourth direction in which the fourth reflecting surface 134 reflects light is the direction opposite to the third direction in which the third reflecting surface 133 reflects light.

バックライト100は格子状に配置された4つの発光装置1を有し、バックライト900は格子状に配置された4つの発光装置901を有する。発光装置901は、特許文献1に記載される発光装置等であり、水平成分が均一になるように光を出射する。   The backlight 100 has four light emitting devices 1 arranged in a grid pattern, and the backlight 900 has four light emitting devices 901 arranged in a grid pattern. The light emitting device 901 is a light emitting device described in Patent Document 1, and emits light so that a horizontal component is uniform.

図6(a)は図5(a)に示すバックライトを平面視したときの輝度分布を示す図であり、図6(b)は図5(a)に示すバックライトの輝度の広がりを示す図である。図6(c)は図5(b)に示すバックライトを平面視したときの輝度分布を示す図であり、図6(d)は図5(b)に示すバックライトの輝度の広がりを示す図である。図6(a)及び6(c)において、横軸及び縦軸はバックライトの一辺の長さを示す。また、図6(b)及び6(d)において、横軸はそれぞれの輝度を示す画素数を示し、縦軸は輝度を示す。   6A is a diagram showing a luminance distribution when the backlight shown in FIG. 5A is viewed in plan, and FIG. 6B is a diagram showing the spread of luminance of the backlight shown in FIG. 5A. FIG. FIG. 6C is a diagram showing the luminance distribution when the backlight shown in FIG. 5B is viewed in plan, and FIG. 6D shows the spread of luminance of the backlight shown in FIG. 5B. FIG. 6A and 6C, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis indicate the length of one side of the backlight. In FIGS. 6B and 6D, the horizontal axis indicates the number of pixels indicating each luminance, and the vertical axis indicates the luminance.

発光装置1が格子状に配置されたバックライト100を平面視したときの輝度分布は、発光装置901が格子状に配置されたバックライト900を平面視したときの輝度分布よりも均一性が高く、明暗ムラが抑制される。   The luminance distribution when the backlight 100 in which the light emitting device 1 is arranged in a grid is viewed in plan is higher in uniformity than the luminance distribution in the plan view of the backlight 900 in which the light emitting device 901 is arranged in a grid. , Light and dark unevenness is suppressed.

また、発光装置1では、光学部材13の表面の形状は、基板10の表面の形状と同一であるので、基板10にLED素子11、封止材112及び反射材113を順次搭載した部材をダイシングすることで容易に製造することができる。   In the light emitting device 1, the shape of the surface of the optical member 13 is the same as the shape of the surface of the substrate 10. Therefore, a member in which the LED element 11, the sealing material 112, and the reflective material 113 are sequentially mounted on the substrate 10 is diced. By doing so, it can be easily manufactured.

図7は第2実施形態に係る発光装置の斜視図であり、図8(a)は図7のA−A´線断面図であり、図8(b)は図7のB−B´線断面図である。図8(a)及び8(b)において、LED素子から放射される光は一点鎖線で示される。
(Light Emitting Device According to Second Embodiment)
7 is a perspective view of the light emitting device according to the second embodiment, FIG. 8A is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA ′ of FIG. 7, and FIG. 8B is a line BB ′ of FIG. It is sectional drawing. 8 (a) and 8 (b), the light emitted from the LED element is indicated by a one-dot chain line.

発光装置2は、封止部材14を封止部材12の代わりに有することが発光装置1と相違する。また、発光装置2は、枠部材15を有することが発光装置1と相違する。封止部材14及び枠部材15以外の発光装置2の構成要素の構成及び機能は、同一符号が付された発光装置1の構成要素の構成及び機能と同様なので、ここでは詳細な説明は省略する。   The light emitting device 2 is different from the light emitting device 1 in that it has a sealing member 14 instead of the sealing member 12. The light emitting device 2 is different from the light emitting device 1 in that it has a frame member 15. The configurations and functions of the components of the light emitting device 2 other than the sealing member 14 and the frame member 15 are the same as the configurations and functions of the components of the light emitting device 1 denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted here. .

封止部材14は、シリコーン樹脂等の無色且つ透明な合成樹脂によって形成され、LED素子11を保護し且つ封止する。また、封止部材14は、緑色蛍光体と赤色蛍光体とを含有する。緑色蛍光体は、LED素子11が出射した青色光を吸収して緑色光に波長変換する、例えば(BaSr)2SiO4:Eu2+等の粒子状の蛍光体材料である。赤色蛍光体は、LED素子11が出射した青色光を吸収して赤色光に波長変換するKSFである。KSFは耐湿性が比較的低い蛍光体である。 The sealing member 14 is formed of a colorless and transparent synthetic resin such as a silicone resin, and protects and seals the LED element 11. Moreover, the sealing member 14 contains a green phosphor and a red phosphor. The green phosphor is a particulate phosphor material such as (BaSr) 2 SiO 4 : Eu 2+ that absorbs blue light emitted from the LED element 11 and converts the wavelength into green light. The red phosphor is a KSF that absorbs the blue light emitted from the LED element 11 and converts the wavelength into red light. KSF is a phosphor with relatively low moisture resistance.

枠部材15は、KSFよりも耐湿性が高いシリコーン樹脂等の無色且つ透明な合成樹脂、すなわち光透過性の材料によって形成され、封止部材を囲うように配置される。   The frame member 15 is formed of a colorless and transparent synthetic resin such as a silicone resin that has higher moisture resistance than KSF, that is, a light-transmitting material, and is disposed so as to surround the sealing member.

(第2実施形態に係る発光装置の製造工程)
図9は、発光装置2の製造工程を示す図である。図9(a)は第1工程を示し、図9(b)は第1工程の次の第2工程を示し、図9(c)は第2工程の次の第3工程を示し、図9(d)は第3工程の次の第4工程を示す。図9(e)は第4工程の次の第5工程を示し、図9(f)は第5工程の次の第6工程を示す。
(Manufacturing process of the light emitting device according to the second embodiment)
FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a manufacturing process of the light emitting device 2. FIG. 9A shows the first step, FIG. 9B shows the second step after the first step, FIG. 9C shows the third step after the second step, and FIG. (D) shows the 4th process following the 3rd process. FIG. 9E shows a fifth step subsequent to the fourth step, and FIG. 9F shows a sixth step subsequent to the fifth step.

まず、第1工程において、図4を参照して説明された発光装置1の第1工程と同様に、複数のLED素子11は、切断することで基板10が形成可能な基板材110の表面に格子状に配置される。   First, in the first step, similarly to the first step of the light emitting device 1 described with reference to FIG. 4, the plurality of LED elements 11 are cut on the surface of the substrate material 110 on which the substrate 10 can be formed. Arranged in a grid.

次いで、第2工程において、封止材114は、複数のLED素子11のそれぞれを覆うように、緑色蛍光体及び赤色蛍光体であるKSFを含むシリコーン樹脂等の樹脂材が充填されて、形成される。封止材114は、例えば、基板材110の周囲に不図示の枠体を配置して、粘性のある液体状の樹脂材を充填して固化することで形成される。   Next, in the second step, the sealing material 114 is formed by filling a resin material such as a silicone resin containing KSF which is a green phosphor and a red phosphor so as to cover each of the plurality of LED elements 11. The The sealing material 114 is formed, for example, by disposing a frame (not shown) around the substrate material 110 and filling and solidifying a viscous liquid resin material.

次いで、第3工程において、封止材114をハーフダイシングして、枠部材15を形成するための樹脂材を充填するための溝部を格子状に形成する。   Next, in a third step, the sealing material 114 is half-diced to form a groove for filling a resin material for forming the frame member 15 in a lattice shape.

次いで、第4工程において、切断することで枠部材15が形成可能な枠材115を第4工程で形成された溝部に配置する。枠材115は、例えば、KSFよりも耐湿性が高く且つ粘性のある液体状の樹脂材を充填して固化することで形成される。   Next, in the fourth step, the frame member 115 that can be formed by cutting the frame member 15 is placed in the groove formed in the fourth step. The frame material 115 is formed, for example, by filling and solidifying a liquid resin material having higher moisture resistance and viscosity than KSF.

第5工程及び第6工程は、図4を参照して説明された発光装置1の製造工程の第3工程及び第4工程と同様なので、ここでは詳細な説明は省略する。   Since the fifth step and the sixth step are the same as the third step and the fourth step of the manufacturing process of the light emitting device 1 described with reference to FIG. 4, detailed description is omitted here.

(第2実施形態に係る発光装置の作用効果)
発光装置2は、封止部材14に含有される蛍光体よりも耐湿性が高い材料で形成される枠部材15が封止部材14を囲うように配置されるので、封止部材14に含有される蛍光体が湿度によって劣化することを防止できる。
(Operational effect of the light emitting device according to the second embodiment)
The light emitting device 2 is contained in the sealing member 14 because the frame member 15 formed of a material having higher moisture resistance than the phosphor contained in the sealing member 14 is disposed so as to surround the sealing member 14. It is possible to prevent deterioration of the fluorescent material due to humidity.

(実施形態に係る発光装置の変形例)
発光装置2では、封止部材14を囲うように配置される枠部材15は、封止部材14に含有される蛍光体よりも耐湿性が高い材料で形成される。しかしながら、実施形態に係る発光装置では、封止部材の上面を覆う光学部材も封止部材に含有される蛍光体よりも耐湿性が高い材料で形成されてもよい。封止部材の上面を覆う光学部材を封止部材に含有される蛍光体よりも耐湿性が高い材料で形成することで、実施形態に係る発光装置は、封止部材14に含有される蛍光体が湿度による劣化を更に効率良く防止できる。
(Modification of Light Emitting Device According to Embodiment)
In the light emitting device 2, the frame member 15 disposed so as to surround the sealing member 14 is formed of a material having higher moisture resistance than the phosphor contained in the sealing member 14. However, in the light emitting device according to the embodiment, the optical member that covers the upper surface of the sealing member may also be formed of a material having higher moisture resistance than the phosphor contained in the sealing member. By forming the optical member that covers the upper surface of the sealing member with a material having higher moisture resistance than the phosphor contained in the sealing member, the light emitting device according to the embodiment has the phosphor contained in the sealing member 14. However, deterioration due to humidity can be prevented more efficiently.
