濃度に重大な影響が出てしまう。(Technical background of the invention and its problems) Figure 1 shows a schematic configuration of a can type light emitting diode widely used as a semiconductor light source, in which a semiconductor light emitting chip 3 is mounted on an insulating plate 4 and a metal It is fixed inside case 1.
The semiconductor light emitting chip 3 is connected to a lead terminal 5 attached to the lower part of the metal case 1 via a lead wire 5A, and when power is supplied from the lead terminal 5, the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 emits light. Light is converged by a lens 2 fitted to the top of a metal case 1 and irradiated to the outside. Figure 2 shows the change in the amount of light emitted when a current is applied to such a light emitting diode.When a short rectangular current pulse as shown in figure A is applied, the amount of light emitted by the light emitting diode E is the same figure B
It changes like this. In other words, the semiconductor light emitting chip 3
Since the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 self-heats when a current is supplied to it and has negative temperature characteristics,
As shown in FIG. 2B, the amount of light emitted E gradually decreases. If the lights are turned on continuously for a long time, the temperature will be stable, but
When a photosensitive material is exposed to light by applying a pulse voltage waveform, as in an image output device, the exposure amount is determined by the integral value of the light amount, so the light emission amount E decreases from the middle as shown in Figure 2B. If it is stored away, the resulting density of the image will be seriously affected.

るものが得られなかつた。 Therefore, it is generally attempted to increase the heat dissipation effect and reduce the temperature rise of the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 by covering the light emitting diode can with a cylindrical heat dissipating fin 6 as shown in the figure. However, since the thermal resistance has already increased between the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 and the insulating plate 4, the effect of the heat dissipation fins 6 is weak, and the decrease in the amount of light emitted E shown in FIG. 2B can hardly be prevented. However, the density of the finished image produced by the image output device was not satisfactory.

ができる。 In such a configuration, the metal fins 7 that also serve as electrodes have a large heat capacity, and the ceramic plate 8 has good electrical insulation and is a good thermal conductor, and the ceramic plate 8 is housed in the case 10. , the thermal resistance from the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 to the case can be kept low. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, the amount of light emitted E becomes approximately constant as shown in FIG. 4B in response to the constant current pulse signal shown in FIG. 4A. This means that even if the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 emits light and tries to rise in temperature,
This is because the heat is absorbed by the metal fins 7 and the ceramic plate 8, which are good heat conductors, and the temperature becomes stable. Further, since the surface of the ceramic plate 8 is colored black, there is less reflected light, and the effect of converging light from the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 can be improved.

であればよい。 Here, the material of the metal fins 7 is better as long as it has good thermal conductivity, and the effect can be further enhanced by making each dimension as large as possible. Ceramic material is selected for the ceramic plate 8 because it is necessary to electrically insulate the semiconductor light emitting chip 3 and the case 10, and it also has good thermal conductivity. moreover,
Since this ceramic can be easily colored, it has the advantage that reflected light can be reduced by coloring it black, for example. In the above, an example was shown in which one semiconductor light emitting chip 3 is mounted on the metal fin 7, but as shown in FIG. good. In this case, each chip 3A
~3D lead wires are connected to emit light in series or parallel, but the heat dissipation effect is further improved. Moreover, if a light source device is constructed by attaching a plurality of semiconductor light emitting chips to the metal fin 7 instead of dividing one chip into a plurality of chips, a light source with a larger amount of light emission can be realized. Further, the shape of the metal fins 7 can be changed in various ways, as long as they can be attached to a ceramic plate on which a semiconductor light emitting chip can be attached.
