Description

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a high-power light-emitting device used as an in-vehicle light source, in which a heat-dissipating layer is formed so as to cover the peripheral edge of the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element to enhance the heat-dissipating effect. Has been done. According to Patent Document 1, since the light emitting device of Patent Document 1 covers the peripheral edge of the light emitting surface of the light emitting element to form a heat radiation layer, the light distribution characteristics of sharp edges are obtained in addition to the improvement of heat radiation characteristics. It can be used, for example, and is said to be suitable for in-vehicle headlamp applications. Here, the light distribution characteristic of the sharp edge in Patent Document 1 is understood to have a large difference in luminance between the inside and the outside of the light emitting surface.

本発明者らは、光出射面の内側と外側における輝度差を大きくできる発光装置を得るために、種々の検討を行った。ここでは、まず、基板上に発光素子を実装し、その発光素子の発光面の上に板状の透光性部材を設けて発光素子の側面と透光性部材の側面とを光反射性部材により覆うことにより、発光素子の側面及び透光性部材の側面から出射される光を効率よく上方に取り出すことができる発光装置を準備した。そして、この準備した発光装置において、発光面の内側と外側での輝度の差が大きくなるように、発光素子及び透光性部材の周りの光反射性部材の上面に透光性部材の外周に接するように遮光フレームを設けたところ、予想通り、発光面の内側と外側で輝度差を大きくできた。 The present inventors have conducted various studies in order to obtain a light emitting device capable of increasing the brightness difference between the inside and the outside of the light emitting surface. Here, first, a light emitting element is mounted on a substrate, a plate-shaped translucent member is provided on the light emitting surface of the light emitting element, and the side surface of the light emitting element and the side surface of the translucent member are light-reflecting members. A light emitting device capable of efficiently extracting light emitted from the side surface of the light emitting element and the side surface of the translucent member is prepared. Then, in the prepared light emitting device, on the upper surface of the light reflecting member around the light emitting element and the translucent member, on the outer periphery of the translucent member so that the difference in brightness between the inside and the outside of the light emitting surface becomes large. When a light-shielding frame was provided so as to be in contact with each other, as expected, the difference in brightness between the inside and the outside of the light emitting surface could be increased.

しかしながら、発光素子及び透光性部材の周りの光反射性部材の上面に遮光フレームを設けると、遮光フレームを設けていない発光装置に比較して、光の取りだし効率が低下することが確認された。さらに検討を進めた結果、この光の取りだし効率の低下は、遮光フレームの光の吸収が原因であることが分かった。すなわち、発光面の内側と外側での輝度差が大きくなるように設ける遮光フレームは、光を吸収する性質があり、透光性部材と遮光フレームの接触部分の近傍にあける遮光フレームによる光の吸収により光の取りだし効率が低下しているのである。そこで、本発明者らは、透光性部材と遮光フレームの間に光反射性部材を介在させるようにしたところ、光の取りだし効率の低下が抑制された。
本発明は、以上のような本願発明者が独自に得た上記知見に基づいて成されたものである。
However, it was confirmed that when a light-shielding frame is provided on the upper surface of the light-emitting element and the light-reflecting member around the light-transmitting member, the light extraction efficiency is lowered as compared with the light-emitting device not provided with the light-shielding frame. .. As a result of further studies, it was found that this decrease in light extraction efficiency was caused by the absorption of light by the light-shielding frame. That is, the light-shielding frame provided so that the difference in brightness between the inside and the outside of the light-emitting surface is large has the property of absorbing light, and the light-absorbing frame placed in the vicinity of the contact portion between the translucent member and the light-shielding frame absorbs light. As a result, the efficiency of light extraction is reduced. Therefore, the present inventors have placed a light-reflecting member between the translucent member and the light-shielding frame to suppress a decrease in light extraction efficiency.
The present invention has been made based on the above findings independently obtained by the inventor of the present application as described above.

以下、本発明に係る実施形態の発光装置とその製造方法について図面を参照しながら説明する。
<実施形態の発光装置>
実施形態の発光装置は、図1及び図2に示すように、基板10と基板10上に設けられた発光素子1と、下面が発光素子1の発光面に対向するように設けられた板状の透光性部材3と、を含み、さらに光反射性部材9が発光装置の光出射面である透光性部材3の上面3aを露出させて発光素子1の側面と透光性部材3の側面とを覆うように設けられている。そして、実施形態の発光装置では、透光性部材3の周りの光反射性部材9の上面に、開口部を有する遮光フレーム5が開口部5aの内側に透光性部材3の上面3aが位置するように設けられ、透光性部材3の上面3aが光反射性部材9及び遮光フレーム5から露出している。
Hereinafter, a light emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention and a method for manufacturing the same will be described with reference to the drawings.
<Light emitting device of embodiment>
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the light emitting device of the embodiment has a substrate 10 and a light emitting element 1 provided on the substrate 10, and a plate shape provided so that the lower surface faces the light emitting surface of the light emitting element 1. Including the translucent member 3 of the above, the light reflecting member 9 exposes the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 which is the light emitting surface of the light emitting device, and the side surface of the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3 are exposed. It is provided so as to cover the side surface. Then, in the light emitting device of the embodiment, the light-shielding frame 5 having an opening is located on the upper surface of the light-reflecting member 9 around the translucent member 3, and the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 is located inside the opening 5a. The upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 is exposed from the light-reflecting member 9 and the light-shielding frame 5.

ここで特に、実施形態の発光装置では、上方から(つまり光出射面3a側から)平面視したときに、開口部5aの内周が光出射面(つまり透光性部材3の上面)3aの外周から離れて位置し、開口部5aの内周と光出射面3aの外周の間に光反射性部材9が露出している。このようにして、発光装置の上面において、光出射面3aと遮光フレーム5の開口部の内周との間を、光反射性部材の表面を介在させることにより分離し、かつ発光素子1の側面及び透光性部材3の側面と遮光フレーム5との間を、光反射性部材9を介在させることにより分離している。 Here, in particular, in the light emitting device of the embodiment, when viewed from above (that is, from the light emitting surface 3a side), the inner circumference of the opening 5a is the light emitting surface (that is, the upper surface of the translucent member 3) 3a. It is located away from the outer circumference, and the light reflecting member 9 is exposed between the inner circumference of the opening 5a and the outer circumference of the light emitting surface 3a. In this way, on the upper surface of the light emitting device, the light emitting surface 3a and the inner circumference of the opening of the light shielding frame 5 are separated by interposing the surface of the light reflecting member, and the side surface of the light emitting element 1 is separated. And the side surface of the translucent member 3 and the light-shielding frame 5 are separated by interposing a light-reflecting member 9.

以上のように構成された実施形態の発光装置は、光出射面3aと光出射面3aを取り囲む領域における輝度差を大きくできかつ発光素子が発光した光を効率よく取り出すことができる。実施形態の発光装置において、開口部5aの内周と光出射面3aの外周の間隔は、光出射面3aの内側と外側における輝度差を大きくすることと発光素子が発光した光を効率よく取り出すこととを両立させるために5μm以上150μm以下であることが好ましく、より好ましくは40μm以上60μm以下とする。 The light emitting device of the embodiment configured as described above can increase the luminance difference in the region surrounding the light emitting surface 3a and the light emitting surface 3a, and can efficiently take out the light emitted by the light emitting element. In the light emitting device of the embodiment, the distance between the inner circumference of the opening 5a and the outer circumference of the light emitting surface 3a increases the luminance difference between the inside and the outside of the light emitting surface 3a and efficiently extracts the light emitted by the light emitting element. In order to achieve both of these, it is preferably 5 μm or more and 150 μm or less, and more preferably 40 μm or more and 60 μm or less.

以下、実施形態の発光装置の種々の形態について説明する。
(形態1)
実施形態の発光装置では、透光性部材3の下面3bの面積は透光性部材3の上面(つまり発光装置の光出射面)3aの面積より大きくなっている。
透光性部材3の上面3aの面積を下面3bよりも小さくすることにより、透光性部材3の下面3bから入射される発光素子1からの出射光を、より小さな面積である上面3a(つまり発光装置の発光面)から放出させることができる。つまり、透光性部材3を通過することにより発光面の面積が絞られて、高輝度でより遠くを照らすことが可能となる。正面輝度の高い発光装置は、特にヘッドライト等の車載照明に適している。なお、車載照明においては、その灯火類の色についての様々な規定が有り、例えば前照灯(ヘッドライト)の灯光の色は白色または淡黄色であり、そのすべてが同一であることが定められている。
さらに、透光性部材3の下面3bの外周は、上方から平面視したときに遮光フレーム5の開口部5aの内周の外側に位置することが好ましい。また、この場合、透光性部材3の側面は、図2等に示すように、厚さが一定の鍔部が形成されるように段差を有していても良いし、図6に示すように、一部又は全部が傾斜した面になっていても良い。透光性部材3の側面が傾斜面を有する場合、傾斜面は平面でもよいし曲面でもよい。
このように、透光性部材3の下面3bの外周が上方から平面視したときに開口部5aの内周の外側に位置するようにし、透光性部材3の上面3aの外周が平面視したときに開口部5aの内周の内側に位置するようにすると、以下のような効果が得られる。
つまり、発光装置を上方(つまり発光面側)から平面視したときに、開口部5aの内側には、透光性部材3の上面3aと透光性部材3の上面3aの外周を取り囲む光反射性部材9の上面を視認することができる。この際、開口部5aの内側の領域において、光反射性部材9の下方には、透光性部材3の傾斜面及び/又は鍔部が位置する。これにより、仮に光反射性部材9にクラックや剥離等が生じたとしても、開口部5aから漏れる光は透光性部材3から出射される光のみとすることができる。さらに、遮光フレーム5に覆われる領域では光反射性部材からの漏れ光は遮光されるため、例えば発光素子1の側方に位置する光反射性部材9にクラックや剥離が生じたとしても、発光素子1の側面から出射された光がクラックや剥離箇所を通過して発光面側に漏れ伝わることをより一層効果的に抑制することができる。例えば、発光素子1から出射された青色光と、その青色光の一部が波長変換された黄色光とを混色させることにより白色光を発する発光装置を車両照明として用いた際に、発光面から出射される白色光の他に、発光素子1から出射された青色光が漏れると、開口部5a内において色度差が生じ、照射エリア内に発光色むらが生じる虞がある。さらに、青色の漏れ光が視認されると、上述した車載照明としての規定が満たされず、車両の安全性が損なわれる虞がある。
Hereinafter, various embodiments of the light emitting device of the embodiment will be described.
(Form 1)
In the light emitting device of the embodiment, the area of the lower surface 3b of the translucent member 3 is larger than the area of the upper surface of the translucent member 3 (that is, the light emitting surface of the light emitting device) 3a.
By making the area of the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 smaller than that of the lower surface 3b, the light emitted from the light emitting element 1 incident from the lower surface 3b of the translucent member 3 is emitted from the upper surface 3a (that is, the lower surface 3a) having a smaller area. It can be emitted from the light emitting surface of the light emitting device). That is, by passing through the translucent member 3, the area of the light emitting surface is narrowed down, and it becomes possible to illuminate a farther distance with high brightness. A light emitting device having a high front luminance is particularly suitable for in-vehicle lighting such as a headlight. In addition, in in-vehicle lighting, there are various regulations regarding the color of the lights, for example, it is stipulated that the color of the headlight is white or pale yellow, and all of them are the same. ing.
Further, it is preferable that the outer periphery of the lower surface 3b of the translucent member 3 is located outside the inner circumference of the opening 5a of the light-shielding frame 5 when viewed from above in a plan view. Further, in this case, as shown in FIG. 2 and the like, the side surface of the translucent member 3 may have a step so as to form a collar portion having a constant thickness, and as shown in FIG. In addition, a part or all of it may be an inclined surface. When the side surface of the translucent member 3 has an inclined surface, the inclined surface may be a flat surface or a curved surface.
In this way, the outer circumference of the lower surface 3b of the translucent member 3 is positioned outside the inner circumference of the opening 5a when viewed in a plan view from above, and the outer circumference of the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 is viewed in a plan view. Occasionally, if it is located inside the inner circumference of the opening 5a, the following effects can be obtained.
That is, when the light emitting device is viewed in a plan view from above (that is, the light emitting surface side), light reflection that surrounds the outer periphery of the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 and the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 inside the opening 5a. The upper surface of the sex member 9 can be visually recognized. At this time, in the region inside the opening 5a, the inclined surface and / or the flange portion of the translucent member 3 is located below the light reflecting member 9. As a result, even if the light-reflecting member 9 is cracked or peeled off, the light leaking from the opening 5a can be limited to the light emitted from the translucent member 3. Further, since the light leaked from the light-reflecting member is shielded in the region covered by the light-shielding frame 5, for example, even if the light-reflecting member 9 located on the side of the light-emitting element 1 is cracked or peeled off, it emits light. It is possible to more effectively suppress the light emitted from the side surface of the element 1 from passing through cracks and peeling points and leaking to the light emitting surface side. For example, when a light emitting device that emits white light by mixing blue light emitted from the light emitting element 1 and yellow light whose wavelength is partially converted is used as vehicle lighting, the light emitting surface is used. If the blue light emitted from the light emitting element 1 leaks in addition to the emitted white light, a difference in chromaticity may occur in the opening 5a, and uneven emission color may occur in the irradiation area. Further, if the blue leaked light is visually recognized, the above-mentioned provisions for in-vehicle lighting may not be satisfied, and the safety of the vehicle may be impaired.

(形態2)
実施形態の発光装置では、透光性部材3の上面3aの外周は、上方から平面視したときに発光素子1の外周の内側に位置することが好ましい。ここで、図1に示すように、複数の発光素子1を含む発光装置において発光素子1の外周という場合には、複数の発光素子1を一体として見て外周を規定するものとし、隣接する発光素子間で対向する個々の発光素子の外周は含まない。
このようにすると、複数の発光素子1から出た光を集光して、透光性部材3の上面3aから出射することができる。これにより、発光素子1が発光した光をより光束密度の高い状態で出射面3aから出射することができる。
(Form 2)
In the light emitting device of the embodiment, it is preferable that the outer periphery of the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 is located inside the outer periphery of the light emitting element 1 when viewed from above in a plan view. Here, as shown in FIG. 1, in the case of a light emitting device including a plurality of light emitting elements 1, when the outer circumference of the light emitting element 1 is referred to, the outer circumference is defined by looking at the plurality of light emitting elements 1 as a unit, and adjacent light emission is performed. The outer circumference of each light emitting element facing each other between the elements is not included.
In this way, the light emitted from the plurality of light emitting elements 1 can be collected and emitted from the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3. As a result, the light emitted by the light emitting element 1 can be emitted from the emission surface 3a in a state where the luminous flux density is higher.

(形態3)
実施形態の発光装置では、透光性部材3の上面3aと遮光フレーム5の上面とは、図2に示すように、実質的に同一平面上に位置していても良いし、図3及び図4に示すように、異なる平面上に位置していてもよい。透光性部材3の上面3aと遮光フレーム5の上面とが異なる平面上に位置している場合、その異なる平面は互いに平行であることが好ましい。透光性部材3の上面3aと遮光フレーム5の上面とが異なる平面上に位置している場合、透光性部材3の上面3aが遮光フレーム5の上面より高い場合、低い場合、どちらの場合でも、光反射性部材9は発光装置の光出射面である透光性部材3の上面3aを露出させて発光素子1の側面と透光性部材3の側面とを覆うように設けられていることが好ましい。
(Form 3)
In the light emitting device of the embodiment, the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 and the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 may be substantially located on the same plane as shown in FIGS. 3 and 3. As shown in 4, they may be located on different planes. When the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 and the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 are located on different planes, it is preferable that the different planes are parallel to each other. When the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 and the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 are located on different planes, the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 is higher or lower than the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5, whichever case. However, the light reflecting member 9 is provided so as to expose the upper surface 3a of the translucent member 3 which is the light emitting surface of the light emitting device and cover the side surface of the light emitting element 1 and the side surface of the translucent member 3. Is preferable.

(形態4)
実施形態の発光装置では、遮光フレーム5は、遮光フレーム5の外周が発光装置の外周と一致するように設けられていても良いが、遮光フレーム5の外周が発光装置の外周の内側に位置するように設けられていていることが好ましい。これにより、後述する発光装置を単位領域ごと(つまり個々の発光装置ごと)に分割する分割工程において、分割線上に遮光フレームが配置されないため、分割時の遮光フレームの位置ずれ等が抑制される。

(樹脂壁形成工程)
未硬化及び/又は半硬化の樹脂材料を基板10上に塗布し、樹脂壁7を形成する。樹脂壁7は、樹脂壁7上に遮光フレームを載置した状態で、その形状を保持可能な粘度の樹脂材料を用いて形成される。なお、この樹脂壁形成工程では、樹脂壁7は完全に硬化されておらず、押圧による変形が可能な柔軟性を維持した状態で樹脂壁7を形成する。
この樹脂壁7は、図7Cに示すように、発光素子1及び透光性部材3から所定の間隔を隔てかつ発光素子1及び透光性部材3を挟んで対向する位置に、上端が透光性部材3の上面より高くなるように形成する。ここで、発光素子1及び透光性部材3を挟んで対向する位置とは、分離された2つの樹脂壁7が対向するように設けられている形態だけではなく、例えば、1つの樹脂壁7が環状に形成され、その環状の樹脂壁7の一部と他の一部が発光素子1及び透光性部材3を挟んで対向している場合も含む。すなわち、樹脂壁7は、例えば、発光素子1及び透光性部材3を挟んで対向するように互いに平行になるように形成するようにしてもよいし、発光素子1及び透光性部材3を囲むように形成するようにしてもよい。また、樹脂壁7は、複数の発光装置間を跨ぐように、具体的には後述する分割線を跨ぐように配置してもよい。もしくは、遮光フレームを保持可能な位置に点状に複数配置してもよい。
(Resin wall forming process)
An uncured and / or semi-cured resin material is applied onto the substrate 10 to form the resin wall 7. The resin wall 7 is formed by using a resin material having a viscosity capable of retaining the shape of the light-shielding frame placed on the resin wall 7. In this resin wall forming step, the resin wall 7 is not completely cured, and the resin wall 7 is formed in a state where the resin wall 7 is flexible enough to be deformed by pressing.
As shown in FIG. 7C, the resin wall 7 has a translucent upper end at a position facing the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3 at a predetermined distance and sandwiching the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3. It is formed so as to be higher than the upper surface of the sex member 3. Here, the positions facing each other with the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3 interposed therebetween are not limited to the form in which the two separated resin walls 7 face each other, but for example, one resin wall 7. Is formed in an annular shape, and a part of the annular resin wall 7 and another part thereof face each other with the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3 interposed therebetween. That is, for example, the resin wall 7 may be formed so as to be parallel to each other so as to face each other with the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3 interposed therebetween, or the light emitting element 1 and the translucent member 3 may be formed. It may be formed so as to surround it. Further, the resin wall 7 may be arranged so as to straddle between a plurality of light emitting devices, specifically, to straddle a dividing line described later. Alternatively, a plurality of light-shielding frames may be arranged in dots at positions where they can be held.

また、樹脂壁7は、例えば、上述した光反射性部材9と同様にシリコーン樹脂、変性シリコーン樹脂、エポキシ樹脂、変性エポキシ樹脂、アクリル樹脂、また、これらの樹脂を少なくとも一種以上含むハイブリッド樹脂等の樹脂材料を用いることができ、その樹脂からなる母材に反射性物質等の各種フィラーを含有させることで形成することができる。樹脂材料の粘度は、例えば樹脂材料中に含有させるフィラーの量により調整することができる。
樹脂壁7の形成方法は、例えば、基板10の上方に樹脂吐出装置のノズルを配置し、ノズルの先端から基板10上に未硬化の樹脂材料を吐出させながら、ノズルが樹脂壁載置領域を移動することにより形成される。ノズルから吐出された未硬化の樹脂材料は基板10上で濡れ広がり、断面視形状が略半円形状の樹脂壁7として基板10上に配置される。なお、樹脂壁は、複数の樹脂壁を積み重ねて形成してもよく、これにより、所望の高さの樹脂壁を形成することができる。
Further, the resin wall 7 is, for example, a silicone resin, a modified silicone resin, an epoxy resin, a modified epoxy resin, an acrylic resin, or a hybrid resin containing at least one of these resins, similar to the light reflective member 9 described above. A resin material can be used, and the base material made of the resin can be formed by containing various fillers such as a reflective substance. The viscosity of the resin material can be adjusted, for example, by the amount of filler contained in the resin material.
As a method of forming the resin wall 7, for example, a nozzle of a resin ejection device is arranged above the substrate 10, and the nozzle forms a resin wall mounting area while ejecting an uncured resin material onto the substrate 10 from the tip of the nozzle. Formed by moving. The uncured resin material discharged from the nozzle wets and spreads on the substrate 10, and is arranged on the substrate 10 as a resin wall 7 having a substantially semicircular cross-sectional shape. The resin wall may be formed by stacking a plurality of resin walls, whereby a resin wall having a desired height can be formed.

(遮光フレーム載置工程)
ここでは、開口部5aを有する遮光フレーム5を準備し、遮光フレーム5を位置決めして基板10から所定の高さに載置して固定する。
例えば、吸着コレット30に遮光フレーム5を吸着して、遮光フレーム5の開口部5aの内周が透光性部材の上面の外周の外側に位置するように位置決めして吸着コレット30を下方に移動させる。吸着コレット30は、遮光フレーム5が樹脂壁7の上端に接触した後も、図7Dに示すように、遮光フレーム5の上面が透光性部材3の上面と同一平面上に位置するまで下方に移動させる。このように、遮光フレーム5により、樹脂壁7を押圧して変形させて、遮光フレーム5を基板10から所定の高さ位置に載置する。その後、樹脂壁7を形成している未硬化の樹脂材料を本硬化することにより、遮光フレーム5を所定の高さに固定する。
このように、未硬化の樹脂材料を用いた樹脂壁7で遮光フレーム5を保持し、遮光フレーム5を押圧して樹脂壁7を変形させた状態で硬化する。これにより、遮光フレーム5を所定の高さ位置に固定することができるため、発光装置の製造工程において、各発光装置の高さばらつきを抑えることができる。
(Shading frame mounting process)
Here, a light-shielding frame 5 having an opening 5a is prepared, the light-shielding frame 5 is positioned, placed at a predetermined height from the substrate 10 and fixed.
For example, the light-shielding frame 5 is sucked onto the suction collet 30, positioned so that the inner circumference of the opening 5a of the light-shielding frame 5 is located outside the outer periphery of the upper surface of the translucent member, and the suction collet 30 is moved downward. Let me. Even after the light-shielding frame 5 comes into contact with the upper end of the resin wall 7, the suction collet 30 is moved downward until the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 is flush with the upper surface of the translucent member 3 as shown in FIG. 7D. Move it. In this way, the light-shielding frame 5 presses and deforms the resin wall 7, and the light-shielding frame 5 is placed at a predetermined height position from the substrate 10. After that, the uncured resin material forming the resin wall 7 is finally cured to fix the light-shielding frame 5 to a predetermined height.
In this way, the light-shielding frame 5 is held by the resin wall 7 using the uncured resin material, and the light-shielding frame 5 is pressed to cure the resin wall 7 in a deformed state. As a result, the light-shielding frame 5 can be fixed at a predetermined height position, so that height variation of each light-emitting device can be suppressed in the manufacturing process of the light-emitting device.

ここでは、図7Dを参照しながら、遮光フレーム5の上面が透光性部材3の上面と実質的に同一平面上に位置するように遮光フレームを位置決めする場合の例を示した。
しかしながら、遮光フレーム載置工程において、以下のようにすれば、遮光フレーム5の上面が透光性部材3の上面と異なる平面上に位置するように遮光フレーム5を位置決めすることもできる。
遮光フレーム5の上面が透光性部材3の上面より高くなるように位置決めする場合には、例えば、図8に示すように、吸着コレット30の吸着面において、遮光フレーム5の開口部5aが配置される部分に、透光性部材3の上面に対向する上面を有する凸部を設け、その凸部の周りで遮光フレーム5を吸着して基板10から所定の高さに位置に載置するようにすればよい。
また、遮光フレーム5の上面が透光性部材3の上面より低くなるように位置決めする場合には、例えば、図9に示すように、吸着コレット30の吸着面において、遮光フレーム5の開口部5aが配置される部分に、透光性部材3の上面に対向する底面を有する凹部を設け、その凹部の周りで遮光フレーム5を吸着して基板10から所定の高さに位置に載置するようにすればよい。
Here, with reference to FIG. 7D, an example is shown in which the light-shielding frame is positioned so that the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the translucent member 3.
However, in the light-shielding frame mounting step, the light-shielding frame 5 can be positioned so that the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 is located on a plane different from the upper surface of the translucent member 3 by performing the following.
When positioning the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 so as to be higher than the upper surface of the translucent member 3, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, the opening 5a of the light-shielding frame 5 is arranged on the suction surface of the suction collet 30. A convex portion having an upper surface facing the upper surface of the translucent member 3 is provided in the portion to be formed, and the light-shielding frame 5 is attracted around the convex portion and placed at a predetermined height from the substrate 10. It should be.
When the upper surface of the light-shielding frame 5 is positioned to be lower than the upper surface of the translucent member 3, for example, as shown in FIG. 9, the opening 5a of the light-shielding frame 5 is formed on the suction surface of the suction collet 30. A recess having a bottom surface facing the upper surface of the translucent member 3 is provided in the portion where the light-transmitting member 3 is arranged, and the light-shielding frame 5 is attracted around the recess and placed at a predetermined height from the substrate 10. It should be.

(光反射性部材形成工程)
ここでは、光反射性部材を形成する未硬化の樹脂材料を、基板10と遮光フレーム5の間の空間に充填することにより、基板10と遮光フレーム5の間で発光素子1と透光性部材3とを囲む光反射性部材9を形成する。実施形態の発光装置の製造方法では、例えば、外周の一部に内側に窪んだ窪み部5bを有する遮光フレーム5を用い、その窪み部5bを介して基板10と遮光フレーム5の間の空間に光反射性樹脂9aを充填する。具体的には、例えば、遮光フレーム5の窪み部5bに、図7Eに示すように、樹脂吐出装置のノズル35を挿入し、そのノズル35の先端から光反射性樹脂9aを吐出して基板10と遮光フレーム5の間の空間に光反射性樹脂を充填する。窪み部5bを介して基板10と遮光フレーム5の間の空間に光反射性樹脂9aを充填する場合、遮光フレーム5の窪み部5bは、図1に示すように、2箇所、好ましくは対称の位置に2箇所形成することが好ましい。遮光フレーム5に2箇所の窪み部5bを形成しておくと、光反射性樹脂9aを充填する際、一方の窪み部5bから光反射性樹脂9aを充填し他方の窪み部5bから空気を排出でき、容易にボイドの発生を抑制できる。また、遮光フレーム5の開口部の内周が透光性部材の上面の外周から離れて位置することにより、ボイドが排出されるとともに、樹脂材料の充填を目視により観察することができる。
基板10と遮光フレーム5の間の空間に光反射性樹脂9aを充填した後、充填した光反射性樹脂を硬化させる。
以上のようにして、実施形態の発光装置は製造される。
(Light reflective member forming process)
Here, the uncured resin material forming the light-reflecting member is filled in the space between the substrate 10 and the light-shielding frame 5, so that the light-emitting element 1 and the light-transmitting member are sandwiched between the substrate 10 and the light-shielding frame 5. A light reflecting member 9 surrounding the 3 is formed. In the method of manufacturing the light emitting device of the embodiment, for example, a light-shielding frame 5 having an inwardly recessed portion 5b in a part of the outer periphery is used, and the space between the substrate 10 and the light-shielding frame 5 is formed through the recessed portion 5b. The light reflective resin 9a is filled. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 7E, the nozzle 35 of the resin ejection device is inserted into the recessed portion 5b of the light-shielding frame 5, and the light-reflecting resin 9a is ejected from the tip of the nozzle 35 to eject the substrate 10. The space between the light-shielding frame 5 and the light-shielding frame 5 is filled with a light-reflecting resin. When the space between the substrate 10 and the light-shielding frame 5 is filled with the light-reflecting resin 9a via the recessed portion 5b, the recessed portion 5b of the light-shielding frame 5 is provided at two locations, preferably symmetrical. It is preferable to form two places at the positions. When the light-shielding frame 5 is formed with two recessed portions 5b, when the light-reflecting resin 9a is filled, the light-reflecting resin 9a is filled from one recessed portion 5b and air is discharged from the other recessed portion 5b. It can easily suppress the generation of voids. Further, since the inner circumference of the opening of the light-shielding frame 5 is located away from the outer periphery of the upper surface of the translucent member, voids are discharged and the filling of the resin material can be visually observed.
After filling the space between the substrate 10 and the light-shielding frame 5 with the light-reflecting resin 9a, the filled light-reflecting resin is cured.
As described above, the light emitting device of the embodiment is manufactured.

以上の説明では、1つの発光装置を図示した図面を参照しながら説明した。
しかしながら、実施形態の発光装置の製造方法では、基板10として、それぞれ個々の発光装置に対応する複数の単位領域に区分された基板を用いて複数の発光装置を一括して作製した後に個々の発光装置に分離するようにすることが好ましい。
例えば、基板10として、複数の行(n行)及び複数の列(m列)を成すように複数(n×m)の単位領域を含む基板を用いる場合、以下のようにする。
In the above description, one light emitting device has been described with reference to the illustrated drawings.
However, in the method for manufacturing a light emitting device of the embodiment, a plurality of light emitting devices are collectively manufactured using a substrate divided into a plurality of unit regions corresponding to each light emitting device as the substrate 10, and then individual light emission is performed. It is preferable to separate them into devices.
For example, when a substrate including a plurality of (n × m) unit regions is used as the substrate 10 so as to form a plurality of rows (n rows) and a plurality of columns (m columns), the process is as follows.

(1)発光素子実装工程において、各単位領域にそれぞれ1又は2以上の発光素子1を実装する。
(2)透光性部材接合工程において、各単位領域に実装された1又は2以上の発光素子1を一括して覆うようにそれぞれ透光性部材3を接合する。
(1) In the light emitting element mounting step, one or two or more light emitting elements 1 are mounted in each unit region.
(2) In the translucent member joining step, the translucent members 3 are joined so as to collectively cover one or more light emitting elements 1 mounted in each unit region.

(3)樹脂壁形成工程において、単位領域に実装された1又は2以上の発光素子1と透光性部材3とを挟んで対向する位置に単位領域ごとに樹脂壁を形成する。
基板10として、複数の行(n行)及び複数の列(m列)を成すように複数(n×m)の単位領域を含む基板を用いる場合、例えば、互いに平行な複数の樹脂壁を列方向に形成することにより、列方向に配列された複数の単位領域の樹脂壁を連続した一本の樹脂壁により形成することが可能になり、効率良く樹脂壁を形成することができる。
(4)光反射性部材形成工程において、各単位領域の基板10と遮光フレーム5の間の空間にそれぞれ光反射性樹脂を充填する。
そして、光反射性部材形成工程後に、分割工程において、光反射性部材及び基板を単位領域ごとに分割することで、発光装置を個片化する。分割は、例えばブレード等を用いた切断により行うことができる。
この単位領域ごとに分割することを考慮すると、単位領域ごとに分割する際の分割位置が遮光フレーム5の外周から離れていることが好ましい。言い換えれば、遮光フレーム5は、発光装置の外形より一回り小さいことが好ましい。
(3) In the resin wall forming step, a resin wall is formed for each unit region at positions facing each other with one or more light emitting elements 1 mounted in the unit region and the translucent member 3 interposed therebetween.
When a substrate containing a plurality of (n × m) unit regions is used as the substrate 10 so as to form a plurality of rows (n rows) and a plurality of columns (m columns), for example, a plurality of resin walls parallel to each other are arranged in columns. By forming in the direction, it becomes possible to form the resin wall of a plurality of unit regions arranged in the row direction by one continuous resin wall, and the resin wall can be efficiently formed.
(4) In the light-reflecting member forming step, the space between the substrate 10 and the light-shielding frame 5 in each unit region is filled with the light-reflecting resin.
Then, after the light-reflecting member forming step, in the dividing step, the light-reflecting member and the substrate are divided into unit regions to individualize the light emitting device. The division can be performed, for example, by cutting with a blade or the like.
Considering the division into each unit area, it is preferable that the division position when dividing into each unit area is far from the outer periphery of the light-shielding frame 5. In other words, the light-shielding frame 5 is preferably one size smaller than the outer shape of the light-emitting device.

以上の発光装置の製造方法によれば、基板10上に複数の発光装置を一括して作製した後に個々の発光装置に分離するようにしているので、発光装置を安価に製造することができる。 According to the above method for manufacturing a light emitting device, since a plurality of light emitting devices are collectively manufactured on the substrate 10 and then separated into individual light emitting devices, the light emitting device can be manufactured at low cost.
