Description
本發明涉及一種發光二極體,具體地說,是涉及一種在水平視角和垂直視角方向上具有不同的光形的發光二極體。The present invention relates to a light-emitting diode, and more particularly to a light-emitting diode having different light shapes in a horizontal viewing angle and a vertical viewing angle direction.
發光二極體具有體積小、重量輕、快速反應等優點,已經被廣泛地應用,近年來發明的白光二極體作為光源已經應用於背光模組、照明系統以及光學投影機當中。The light-emitting diode has been widely used because of its small size, light weight, fast response, etc. The white light diode invented in recent years has been used as a light source in backlight modules, illumination systems, and optical projectors.
眾所周知,反射率與光耦合率成反比,換言之,當反射率增加時,光耦合率會隨之降低。第二圖為模擬發光二極體應用在背光模組中反射率與發光二極體入射角之關係的示意圖。如第二圖所示,當發光二極體的入射角度大於60°時,反射率會出現明顯的增加,而有礙於光耦合率的提高,導致普通白光二極體的光耦合率為87%左右。It is well known that the reflectance is inversely proportional to the optical coupling ratio, in other words, as the reflectance increases, the optical coupling ratio decreases. The second figure is a schematic diagram of the relationship between the reflectivity of the analog light-emitting diode and the incident angle of the light-emitting diode in the backlight module. As shown in the second figure, when the incident angle of the light-emitting diode is greater than 60°, the reflectivity will increase significantly, which hinders the improvement of the optical coupling ratio, resulting in an optical coupling ratio of the ordinary white light diode. %about.
如第一圖所示,在應用於液晶顯示器中的背光模組10中,由於白光二極體11的封裝膠體為圓形結構,其光形為聚光光形(Lambertian Distribution)即光亮強度由中心向周邊減弱,也稱為朗伯特分佈或朗伯特光形。所以,每顆白光二極體11中心位置最亮,但每顆白光二極體11之間的亮度比較暗,故造成背光模組光亮分佈不均勻,從而會形成熱點現象(hotspot)。As shown in the first figure, in the backlight module 10 applied to the liquid crystal display, since the encapsulation colloid of the white LED 11 has a circular structure, the light shape is a Lambertian distribution, that is, the luminous intensity is The center weakens to the periphery, also known as the Lambert distribution or the Lambert light shape. Therefore, the center position of each white light diode 11 is the brightest, but the brightness between each white light diode 11 is relatively dark, so that the backlight module is unevenly distributed, thereby forming a hotspot.
由於發光二極體的聚光光形,導致照明系統中多個發光二極體間隔之間的光亮度較弱,造成燈管一明一暗之炫目的現象,同時造成使用者的眼睛疲勞或不舒服的情況。Due to the condensed light shape of the light-emitting diode, the brightness of the light-emitting diodes in the illumination system is weak, causing a bright and dazzling phenomenon of the light tube, and causing eye fatigue of the user or Uncomfortable situation.
一般的發光二極體產生的視角(約為120°)並不符合投影機光學引擎的使用(光學引擎收光角度為60°),所以若以發光二極體作為投影機的光源時,發光二極體的視角必需經過適當的調整,但這又會造成光使用率的低落。此外,為了滿足投影機特殊影像的比例(例如16:9的比例關係),所以需要將發光二極體產生的圓對稱光型轉換至16:9非對稱長型光型。在實作上,一般會使用光軌(Integration Tunnel)或者微透鏡列陣(Micro-Lens array)技術來達到此一目的,但此一過程不但會造成光損失,亦會造成額外的體積增加。The viewing angle produced by a typical light-emitting diode (about 120°) does not match the use of the projector's optical engine (the optical engine's light-receiving angle is 60°), so if the light-emitting diode is used as the light source of the projector, the light is emitted. The viewing angle of the diode must be properly adjusted, but this will cause a drop in light usage. In addition, in order to satisfy the ratio of the projector's special image (for example, a 16:9 ratio), it is necessary to convert the circularly symmetric light pattern produced by the light-emitting diode to a 16:9 asymmetric long light type. In practice, the integration tunnel or Micro-Lens array technology is generally used to achieve this purpose, but this process not only causes light loss, but also causes an additional volume increase.
綜合以上所述,現有的發光二極體的發光分佈為朗伯特分佈(Lambertian Distribution),在背光模組中的應用,具有光耦合率難以提升的問題,同時出現熱點(hotspot)現象;而在照明系統中,同樣存在光耦合率的問題,也存在炫光(glare)的現象;而現在的發光二極體應用在光學投影機中,會使得光使用率較低,而目前的解決方案卻會引起其他的問題,例如增加光程,投影儀的體積增大等。In summary, the light-emitting distribution of the existing light-emitting diodes is a Lambertian distribution, and the application in the backlight module has the problem that the light coupling ratio is difficult to be improved, and hotspot phenomenon occurs at the same time; In the lighting system, there is also the problem of optical coupling rate, and there is also glare phenomenon; now the application of the light-emitting diode in the optical projector will make the light usage lower, and the current solution It can cause other problems, such as increasing the optical path, increasing the size of the projector, and so on.
因此,本發明人從發光二極體的光形角度去解決上述問題,以達成事半功倍的效果。Therefore, the inventors have solved the above problems from the viewpoint of the light shape of the light-emitting diode to achieve a multiplier effect.
本發明旨在提供一種發光二極體,該發光二極體的第一視角的的光形分佈為蝙蝠翼形(Batwing)光形,一與第一視角相互垂直的第二視角的光形分佈為聚光光形,以解決傳統的技術問題。The present invention is directed to a light-emitting diode having a light-shaped distribution of a first viewing angle of a light-emitting diode as a Batwing light shape, and a light-shaped distribution of a second viewing angle perpendicular to the first viewing angle. It is a spotlight to solve traditional technical problems.
為實現上述目的,根據本發明的主旨,一種發光二極體,包括有形成設有一凹陷部的基座,設置於該凹陷部的一發光晶片,填充於該凹陷部中的一封膠層,該發光晶片上方設置有一透光的光學調整結構,使得該發光二極體的水平視角方向上的光形分佈不同於其垂直視角方向上的光形分佈。In order to achieve the above object, in accordance with the gist of the present invention, a light-emitting diode includes a susceptor formed with a recessed portion, a light-emitting chip disposed on the recessed portion, and an adhesive layer filled in the recessed portion. A light-transmitting optical adjustment structure is disposed above the light-emitting chip such that the light-shaped distribution in the horizontal viewing direction of the light-emitting diode is different from the light-shaped distribution in the vertical viewing direction.
根據上述的結構,可以使得LED的視角在水平方向的光形與垂直方向上的光形分佈不同,例如在水平方向呈一蝙蝠翼形光形,在垂直方向呈聚光光形,這樣就有利於LED發光的均勻度,且使得垂直視角射出的光線角度大多數小於60°,這樣有利於提高LED的光耦合率,水平視角的蝙蝠翼光形可以解決背光模組中光的熱點(hotspot)現象以及光耦合率,當然也可以解決照明系統的炫光(glare)現象,LED的光耦合率提高,也直接提高照明系統的光耦合率。另外,具有上述結構的LED的光形為非圓形對稱光形,其可以適用於光學投影機中,以調整其橢圓形曲面的長軸和短軸、內凹面的寬度L以及半橢圓斜面或半圓面的曲率,使光型接近16:9之比例,以便適用於光學投影機中。According to the above configuration, it is possible to make the viewing angle of the LED in the horizontal direction different from the light distribution in the vertical direction, for example, a batwing shape in the horizontal direction and a condensing shape in the vertical direction, which is advantageous. The uniformity of the LED illumination, and the angle of the light emitted by the vertical viewing angle is mostly less than 60°, which is beneficial to improve the optical coupling ratio of the LED. The horizontal viewing angle of the batwing light shape can solve the hotspot of the light in the backlight module. The phenomenon and the optical coupling ratio can of course solve the glare phenomenon of the illumination system, and the optical coupling ratio of the LED is improved, and the optical coupling ratio of the illumination system is directly improved. In addition, the light shape of the LED having the above structure is a non-circular symmetrical light shape, which can be applied to an optical projector to adjust the major axis and the minor axis of the elliptical curved surface, the width L of the concave surface, and the semi-elliptical slope or The curvature of the semi-circular surface makes the light pattern close to a 16:9 ratio for use in optical projectors.
為使能更進一步瞭解本發明之特徵及技術內容,請參閱以下有關本發明之詳細說明與附圖,然而所附圖式僅提供參考與說明用,並非用來對本發明加以限制者。For a better understanding of the features and technical aspects of the present invention, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings.
以下將參照附圖並結合相應的實施例對本發明做詳細的說明和描述。The invention will be described and described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
請參照第三圖、第四圖、第五圖,本發明的一個實施例提供了一種發光二極體100。Referring to the third, fourth, and fifth figures, an embodiment of the present invention provides a light emitting diode 100.
該發光二極體100包括有一基座101、一發光晶片102,以及一封膠層103。上述的基座101具有一容置空間,該容置空間可以為基座101的上表面向下凹陷形成之一凹陷部104,該凹陷部104內具有一底面105,以及圍繞底面105周緣的側壁面106。底面105與側壁面106配合界定出該容置空間,該發光晶片102設置於該凹陷部104中,並安裝在底面105上,而基座101還包括有導電端子107,發光晶片102電連接於該導電端子107,以提供發光晶片102所需的電壓或其他控制訊號。其中,封膠層103填設於該凹陷部104之容置空間中,並且填充覆蓋發光晶片102的頂面與周面。The LED 100 includes a pedestal 101, a luminescent wafer 102, and an adhesive layer 103. The pedestal 101 has an accommodating space, and the accommodating space may be recessed downwardly to form a recessed portion 104. The recessed portion 104 has a bottom surface 105 and a side surrounding the periphery of the bottom surface 105. Wall 106. The bottom surface 105 and the sidewall surface 106 cooperate to define the accommodating space. The illuminating wafer 102 is disposed in the recess portion 104 and is mounted on the bottom surface 105. The pedestal 101 further includes a conductive terminal 107. The luminescent wafer 102 is electrically connected to the illuminating wafer 102. The conductive terminal 107 provides a voltage or other control signal required to illuminate the wafer 102. The sealant layer 103 is filled in the accommodating space of the recessed portion 104 and filled to cover the top surface and the peripheral surface of the luminescent wafer 102.
該發光二極體100還包括有一光學調整結構200,該光學調整結構200位於基座101的上方,並與之封裝為一體。由發光晶片102發出的光線,經過光學調整結構200之後,會使得該發光二極體100的水平視角方向上的光形分佈不同於其垂直視角方向上的光形分佈。例如,該發光二極體的水平視角方向上的光形分佈呈蝙蝠翼形光形,其垂直視角方向上的光形分佈呈朗伯特光形。The light emitting diode 100 further includes an optical adjustment structure 200 disposed above the base 101 and packaged integrally therewith. The light emitted by the light-emitting chip 102 passes through the optical adjustment structure 200, so that the light-shaped distribution in the horizontal viewing direction of the light-emitting diode 100 is different from the light-shaped distribution in the vertical viewing direction. For example, the light-shaped distribution of the light-emitting diode in the horizontal viewing direction is a batwing shape, and the light-shaped distribution in the vertical viewing direction is a Lambertian light shape.
請結合第四圖或第八A圖所示,該光學調整結構200大體上為一半橢圓球形202,其頂面向內陷有一凹面201並與周圍的半橢圓球形202連接。這其中,該半橢圓球形202具有一長軸203和一短軸204,該長軸203與該短軸204相互垂直,該長軸203為一水平軸(X軸),該短軸204為一垂直軸(Y軸)。後文會更加詳細的說明光學調整結構200的構造,以便清楚說明發光二極體的水平視角方向上的光形分佈呈蝙蝠翼形光形,其垂直視角方向上的光形分佈呈朗伯特光形。In conjunction with the fourth or eighth A diagram, the optical adjustment structure 200 is generally a semi-elliptical sphere 202 having a top surface that is inwardly recessed with a concave surface 201 and connected to the surrounding semi-elliptical sphere 202. The semi-elliptical spherical shape 202 has a long axis 203 and a short axis 204. The long axis 203 and the short axis 204 are perpendicular to each other. The long axis 203 is a horizontal axis (X axis), and the short axis 204 is a Vertical axis (Y axis). The structure of the optical adjustment structure 200 will be described in more detail later, so as to clearly show that the light-shaped distribution in the horizontal viewing direction of the light-emitting diode is a batwing shape, and the light-shaped distribution in the vertical viewing direction is Lambert. Light shape.
如第三圖所示,當發光晶片102的光線射出基座101時,為了能夠調整光型,該凹面201之幾何中心位置對齊地設置於發光晶片102的上方。其中,該凹面201由兩個相同的半橢圓斜面2011、2012構成,並在長軸203之方向上,由該凹面201的中心向周邊形成高度遞增的態樣;另外,上述之半橢圓球形202沿該長、短軸的截面呈凸出狀。當然,該凹面201也可以由兩個相同的半圓斜面構成。As shown in the third figure, when the light of the light-emitting chip 102 is emitted from the susceptor 101, the geometric center position of the concave surface 201 is aligned above the light-emitting wafer 102 in order to be able to adjust the light pattern. Wherein, the concave surface 201 is composed of two identical semi-elliptical inclined surfaces 2011, 2012, and in the direction of the long axis 203, a height-increasing aspect is formed from the center of the concave surface 201 to the periphery; in addition, the above-mentioned semi-elliptical spherical shape 202 The cross section along the long and short axes is convex. Of course, the concave surface 201 can also be composed of two identical semicircular slopes.
更進一步地,為了更佳地控制光線,發光晶片102的輪廓最佳地與凹陷部104的外緣輪廓相似。參考第六圖所示,以發光晶片102為矩形立方體為例,即其周面是由兩相平行且相間隔的長側面1021,以及兩相平行且相隔的短側面1022所構成。因此,凹陷部104的外緣輪廓需對應的設計成矩形立方體,即其側壁面106是由兩相平行且相隔的長側壁面1061與兩相平行且相隔的短側壁面1062構成。並且,凹陷部104的長側壁面1061平行於發光晶片102的長側面1021,凹陷部104的短側壁面1062平行於發光晶片102的短側面1022。Still further, for better control of light, the contour of the luminescent wafer 102 is optimally similar to the outer contour of the recess 104. Referring to the sixth figure, the illuminating wafer 102 is exemplified by a rectangular cube, that is, its peripheral surface is composed of two parallel and spaced long side faces 1021, and two parallel and spaced short side faces 1022. Therefore, the outer edge contour of the recessed portion 104 is correspondingly designed as a rectangular cube, that is, the side wall surface 106 is composed of two parallel and spaced apart long side wall faces 1061 and two parallel and spaced short side wall faces 1062. Moreover, the long side wall surface 1061 of the recessed portion 104 is parallel to the long side surface 1021 of the light emitting wafer 102, and the short side wall surface 1062 of the recessed portion 104 is parallel to the short side surface 1022 of the light emitting wafer 102.
為了保證光線是由發光晶片102的頂面射出的,而提供在垂直視角方向即短軸方向(第四圖中Y軸)上的光形分佈為如第九圖所示之朗伯特光形(Lambertian Contribution),需對上述側面1021、1022、側壁面1061、1062之寬度差異值有所限定。In order to ensure that the light is emitted from the top surface of the light-emitting wafer 102, the light-shaped distribution provided in the direction of the vertical viewing direction, that is, the short-axis direction (the Y-axis in the fourth figure) is the Lambertian light shape as shown in the ninth figure. (Lambertian Contribution), it is necessary to limit the width difference values of the side faces 1021, 1022 and the side wall faces 1061, 1062.
如第七A圖所示,該長側壁面1061之間的短向寬度WS1與所述之長側面1021之間短向寬度WS2兩者之間的寬度差異值小於0.6mm(亦即WS1-WS2<0.6mm)。同樣的,所述之短側壁面1022之間的長向寬度WL1與短側面1062之間長向寬度WL2兩者之間的寬度差異值小於0.6mm(亦即WL1-WL2<0.6mm)。本實施例中,該短向寬度WS1與短向寬度WS2的寬度差值為0.4mm,長向寬度WL1與長向寬度WL2的寬度差異值亦為0.4mm。As shown in FIG. 7A, the difference in width between the short-direction width WS1 between the long side wall faces 1061 and the short-direction width WS2 between the long side faces 1021 is less than 0.6 mm (ie, WS1-WS2). <0.6mm). Similarly, the difference in width between the long width WL1 and the short side 1062 between the short side walls 1022 is less than 0.6 mm (ie, WL1 - WL2 < 0.6 mm). In this embodiment, the difference in width between the short width WS1 and the short width WS2 is 0.4 mm, and the difference in width between the long width WL1 and the long width WL2 is also 0.4 mm.
請參閱第七B圖,由於凹陷部104的側壁面106平行於發光晶片102的周面,所以大部份由發光晶片102的周面射出進入封膠層103的光線(光子),會被侷限於凹陷部104的側壁面(長側壁面1061、短側壁面1062之組合)與發光晶片102的周面(長側面1021、短側面1022之組合)來回反射,或者被吸收而轉化為其他形式的能量。因此,實際上LED射出的光線絕大多數是發光晶片102的頂面的射出的光線。當同時考慮發光晶片102尺寸與該凹陷部104的尺寸(特別是其寬度與高度)設計,使發光晶片102的頂面所射出的光線落在角度01的範圍內,其中該θ1最佳的角度不大於120°。如此,由發光晶片102發射出的光線近似於電光源,所謂的電光源係指光線比較集中的光源。需要說明的是,在封膠層103內還可以摻雜用於波長轉換的螢光粉109,再填設具螢光粉之封膠層103(亦可稱螢光粉層)於該凹陷部104之容置空間中,以填充覆蓋發光晶片102的頂面與周面。舉例來說,該發光晶片102可選用發出藍光波長介於400nm至470nm之間的晶片,在封膠層103內可摻雜用於可轉換藍光而出波長介於520nm至570nm之間的黃光螢光粉,以混色形成白光,形成白光發光二極體。當然在混色成白光的機制上,除了上述搭配之外,還可以選用具他混色的搭配,此並非對本發明的限定,而是舉例說明,以便更加理解本發明。Referring to FIG. 7B, since the sidewall surface 106 of the recess 104 is parallel to the peripheral surface of the luminescent wafer 102, most of the light (photons) emitted from the peripheral surface of the luminescent wafer 102 into the encapsulant layer 103 is limited. The side wall surface (the combination of the long side wall surface 1061 and the short side wall surface 1062) of the recessed portion 104 is reflected back and forth with the peripheral surface (the combination of the long side surface 1021 and the short side surface 1022) of the light-emitting chip 102, or is absorbed and converted into other forms. energy. Therefore, in fact, most of the light emitted by the LED is the light emitted from the top surface of the light-emitting chip 102. When considering the size of the light-emitting chip 102 and the size of the recess 104 (especially its width and height), the light emitted from the top surface of the light-emitting chip 102 falls within the range of the angle 01, wherein the angle θ1 is optimal. Not more than 120°. Thus, the light emitted by the light-emitting chip 102 approximates an electric light source, and the so-called electric light source refers to a light source whose light is concentrated. It should be noted that the phosphor powder 109 for wavelength conversion may be doped in the sealing layer 103, and the sealing layer 103 (also referred to as a phosphor layer) having a phosphor powder may be filled in the depressed portion. In the accommodating space of 104, the top surface and the peripheral surface of the luminescent wafer 102 are covered with a filling. For example, the illuminating wafer 102 can be selected to emit a blue light having a wavelength between 400 nm and 470 nm, and the sealing layer 103 can be doped with yellow fluorescent light for converting blue light and having a wavelength between 520 nm and 570 nm. The powder forms a white light by mixing colors to form a white light emitting diode. Of course, in the mechanism of color mixing into white light, in addition to the above-mentioned collocation, it is also possible to select a combination of his color mixing, which is not intended to limit the invention, but is exemplified to better understand the present invention.
基於上述,對於白光二極體而言,由發光晶片102的頂面所射出的光線對射出的白光具有實質的貢獻。而發光晶片102的周面之出光部分對整體發光二極體所發的白光,可視為無貢獻或者極少部分的貢獻。如此,由發光晶片102發射出的光線近似於電光源,所謂的電光源係指光線比較集中的光源。Based on the above, for the white light diode, the light emitted from the top surface of the light-emitting chip 102 has a substantial contribution to the emitted white light. On the other hand, the white light emitted from the peripheral portion of the light-emitting chip 102 to the entire light-emitting diode can be regarded as having no contribution or a small contribution. Thus, the light emitted by the light-emitting chip 102 approximates an electric light source, and the so-called electric light source refers to a light source whose light is concentrated.
以下將有詳細的描述,說明光線分佈的光形:在發光二極體100的水平視角(X軸)方向與垂直視角(Y軸)方向的光形呈現不同類型的光形,而兩種不同的光形在疊加之後,會更加有利於提升光亮分佈的均勻度。此處僅以普通發光二極體為例說明,白光發光二極體與之同理。A detailed description will be given below to describe the light shape of the light distribution: the light shape in the horizontal viewing angle (X-axis) direction and the vertical viewing angle (Y-axis) direction of the light-emitting diode 100 exhibit different types of light shapes, and two different types. After the superposition of the light shape, it will be more conducive to improve the uniformity of the light distribution. Here, only the ordinary light-emitting diode is taken as an example, and the white light-emitting diode is similarly treated.
請參閱第八A圖,該第八A圖簡略地示意出了光學調整結構200在該長軸203之方向上光線路徑。該凹面201沿長軸203之方向呈一內凹弧形界面301,而沿其短軸204之方向則呈一平面界面302(如第八B圖所示)。Please refer to FIG. 8A, which schematically illustrates the light path of the optical adjustment structure 200 in the direction of the long axis 203. The concave surface 201 has a concave curved interface 301 along the direction of the long axis 203 and a planar interface 302 along the short axis 204 (as shown in FIG. 8B).
光線由上述的點光源300(即上述之發光晶片102)射出,在在長軸方向上,光線對應的界面係為凹面201之內凹弧形界面301。凹面201的該內凹弧形界面301使白光經過該內凹弧形界面301時發生折射,並沿著內凹弧形界面301的下凹輪廓有著不同程度的光線發散。對其他未經過該內凹弧形界面301,而是經過光學調整結構200的半橢圓球形202的光線,則並沿著半橢圓球形202的凸出輪廓發生不同程度的光線聚集。半橢圓球形202的作用在此類似於凸透鏡的作用。如此一來,由於內凹弧形界面301所造成的光線發散,以及半橢圓球形202所造成的光線聚集,使得由光學調整結構200的中心部位射出的光線的光強度會小於該中心部位兩側的光強度,所以光強度由中心向兩側不斷增加直到達到一個峰值,又由於射向半橢圓球形202的光線的比較少(發光晶片102的大角度光線比較少),加之半橢圓球形202使得通過其的光線收斂,所以通過光學調整結構200的光強度在到達一個峰值時,光強度開始減弱,所以在水平視角方向即長軸方向(第四圖中X軸)的光形分佈為蝙蝠翼形(Batwing Contribution)光形(如第九圖所示)。The light is emitted by the point source 300 (i.e., the above-described light-emitting chip 102). In the long-axis direction, the interface corresponding to the light is a concave curved interface 301 of the concave surface 201. The concave curved interface 301 of the concave surface 201 refracts white light as it passes through the concave curved interface 301, and has different degrees of light divergence along the concave contour of the concave curved interface 301. For other rays that do not pass through the concave curved interface 301, but pass through the semi-elliptical spherical shape 202 of the optical adjustment structure 200, different degrees of light accumulation occur along the convex contour of the semi-elliptical spherical shape 202. The action of the semi-elliptical sphere 202 is here similar to the action of a convex lens. As a result, the light caused by the concave curved interface 301 is diverged, and the light caused by the semi-elliptical shape 202 is concentrated, so that the light intensity of the light emitted from the central portion of the optical adjustment structure 200 is smaller than the sides of the central portion. The light intensity, so the light intensity increases from the center to the sides until a peak is reached, and since the light that is directed toward the semi-elliptical sphere 202 is relatively small (the large-angle light of the light-emitting wafer 102 is relatively small), the semi-elliptical sphere 202 is added. The light passing through it converges, so when the light intensity of the optical adjustment structure 200 reaches a peak, the light intensity starts to weaken, so the light shape distribution in the horizontal viewing direction, that is, the long axis direction (X-axis in the fourth figure) is a batwing. Batwing Contribution (as shown in Figure 9).
當然,調整凹面201的寬度L可以調節蝙蝠翼形光形中心部位的光亮強度。由上述也可知,內凹弧形界面301類似於凹透鏡,因此,藉由調整半橢圓或半圓面的曲率變化、或是半橢圓的長短軸、或者是半圓的半徑,也會帶來不同曲率的內凹弧形界面301,而產生不同形狀的蝙蝠翼形光形。Of course, adjusting the width L of the concave surface 201 can adjust the brightness intensity of the central portion of the batwing shape. It can also be seen from the above that the concave curved interface 301 is similar to a concave lens, and therefore, by adjusting the curvature change of the semi-elliptical or semi-circular surface, or the length of the semi-ellipse, or the radius of the semi-circle, it also brings different curvatures. The curved arcuate interface 301 is recessed to create a batwing shape of a different shape.
如第八B圖所示,該第八B圖簡略地示意出了該短軸204之方向上光線路徑。由上述可知,就該點光源300射出的光線而言,在發光二極體100的短軸方向上由上述點光源300射出的光線所對應的界面則呈一平面界面302。在此時,由點光源300射出的光線經過該平面界面302時發生折射,光線聚集,光強度由中心部分向周圍減弱,如第九圖所示,故其在垂直視角方向即短軸204之方向(即第四圖中Y軸)上的光形分佈為朗伯特光形(Lambertian Contribution)。As shown in FIG. 8B, the eighth B diagram schematically illustrates the ray path in the direction of the stub axis 204. As can be seen from the above, the light corresponding to the light emitted from the point light source 300 in the short-axis direction of the light-emitting diode 100 corresponds to a plane interface 302. At this time, the light emitted by the point light source 300 is refracted when passing through the planar interface 302, the light is concentrated, and the light intensity is weakened from the central portion to the periphery, as shown in the ninth figure, so that it is in the vertical viewing direction, that is, the short axis 204. The light shape distribution in the direction (ie, the Y-axis in the fourth figure) is the Lambertian Contribution.
與現有的LED的單純的聚光光形相比,本發明的在其水平視角方向上的光形分佈呈蝙蝠翼形光形,而其垂直視角方向上的光形分佈呈朗伯特光形,而上述兩個視角的光形在疊加之後,會使得光亮分佈更加均勻。Compared with the simple concentrated light shape of the existing LED, the light distribution of the present invention in the horizontal viewing direction is a batwing shape, and the light distribution in the vertical viewing direction is a Lambertian light shape. The light shapes of the above two viewing angles will make the light distribution more uniform after superposition.
參閱第九圖,本發明LED的水平視角方向的光形分佈呈蝙蝠翼形(Batwing Contribution),即光亮分佈並非從中心向周邊減弱,而是0°至50°及0°至-50°的範圍內呈亮度遞增的現象,但在其垂直視角方向的光形分佈為朗伯特光形(Lambertian Contribution)。如此,在水平視角方向與垂直視角方向的光形在疊加之後,則更加有利於提升光亮分佈的均勻度。Referring to the ninth figure, the light-shaped distribution of the LED in the horizontal viewing direction of the present invention is a Batwing Contribution, that is, the light distribution is not weakened from the center to the periphery, but is 0° to 50° and 0° to -50°. The phenomenon of increasing brightness in the range, but the light shape distribution in the direction of its vertical viewing angle is the Lambertian Contribution. In this way, after the superposition of the light shapes in the horizontal viewing angle direction and the vertical viewing angle direction, it is more advantageous to improve the uniformity of the light distribution.
更進一步的說,本發明LED的整體光形分佈的法線向量之光強度(0度角的強度)相對於最大光強度值(蝙蝠翼形強度)可為30%至80%之間,而其最佳值大約為50%至70%之間,而該發光二極體100所發出光強度最大值(Batwing的鋒值)大約落30°到70°之間,最佳值大約落在45°到55°之間,以達到最佳的均勻度設計。Furthermore, the light intensity (the intensity of the 0 degree angle) of the normal vector of the overall light shape distribution of the LED of the present invention may be between 30% and 80% with respect to the maximum light intensity value (batwing strength), and The optimum value is about 50% to 70%, and the maximum intensity of light emitted by the LED 100 (the peak value of Batwing) falls between 30° and 70°, and the optimum value falls to about 45. Between ° and 55° for optimum uniformity.
參閱第十圖及第十一圖,對於背光模組而言,作為光源的LED通過調整光學調整結構200中長軸203與短軸204的長度,以及調整凹面201的寬度L為1.5mm,使得其水平視角方向為120°和垂直視角方向為80°時,可以使得LED的出光率即光耦合率提高為92.6%。當然通過調整光學調整結構200中長軸203與短軸204的長度,以及凹面201的寬度L以及半橢圓斜面的曲率,LED的光亮均勻度的提高,也可以有利於消除背光模組中出現的熱點(hotspot)現象。Referring to the tenth and eleventh figures, for the backlight module, the LED as the light source adjusts the length of the long axis 203 and the short axis 204 in the optical adjustment structure 200, and adjusts the width L of the concave surface 201 to 1.5 mm, so that When the horizontal viewing angle is 120° and the vertical viewing angle is 80°, the light-emitting rate of the LED, that is, the optical coupling ratio can be increased to 92.6%. Of course, by adjusting the lengths of the long axis 203 and the short axis 204 in the optical adjustment structure 200, and the width L of the concave surface 201 and the curvature of the semi-elliptical slope, the improvement of the brightness uniformity of the LED can also be beneficial to eliminate the occurrence of the backlight module. Hotspot phenomenon.
本發明揭露之發光二極體100,其利用特殊設計之透鏡以及凹槽、透鏡、與晶片間相對位置關係,藉以調整該發光二極體之發光形特徵,形成具有非圓對稱光形之發光二極體,其中,本發明更可如下所述,用於以顯示裝置(如面板、電視或螢幕等)之背光模組(back light unit)上,結合反射板(reflecting sheet)、設置於該反射板上方之擴散板(diffusing plate)以及設置於該反射板與該擴散板間之本發明之複數個發光二極體100。其中發光二極體100所產生之光線由擴散板散射至顯示面板,於發光二極體100下方之反射板則可將發光二極體100向下散射之光線反射至擴散板,以有效利用發光二極體100所發出之光線。除此之外,任兩相鄰之發光二極體100設置間距之高度與寬度比介於0.5至1之間,故利用本發明之發光二極體100所組成之背光模組,可有效減少發光二極體的數量,同時符合背光模組之光強度及均勻度需求。The light-emitting diode 100 disclosed in the present invention utilizes a specially designed lens and a relative positional relationship between the lens, the lens and the wafer, thereby adjusting the light-emitting shape of the light-emitting diode to form a light having a non-circular symmetrical light shape. a diode, wherein the present invention can be further used as follows: a backlight unit for a display device (such as a panel, a television, or a screen), a reflective sheet, and a backlight unit A diffusing plate above the reflecting plate and a plurality of light emitting diodes 100 of the present invention disposed between the reflecting plate and the diffusing plate. The light generated by the light emitting diode 100 is scattered by the diffusing plate to the display panel, and the reflecting plate below the light emitting diode 100 can reflect the light scattered downward by the light emitting diode 100 to the diffusing plate to effectively utilize the light emitting. The light emitted by the diode 100. In addition, the height and width ratio of the two adjacent light-emitting diodes 100 are between 0.5 and 1, so that the backlight module composed of the light-emitting diode 100 of the present invention can be effectively reduced. The number of light-emitting diodes meets the light intensity and uniformity requirements of the backlight module.
參閱第十二圖,為一種發光二極體(LED)燈管400,該燈管400包含一透光燈管401、一長條狀電路板(未顯示)以及若干(複數個)本發明之發光二極體(LED)100,其設置於該電路板上以作為光源,並嵌套在該透光燈管401內,由於本發明之發光二極體100的光亮分佈更加均勻,故可以消除一般發光二極體(LED)燈管炫目(glare)之現象。Referring to FIG. 12, a light emitting diode (LED) lamp 400 includes a light transmissive tube 401, a long strip circuit board (not shown), and a plurality (multiple) of the present invention. A light-emitting diode (LED) 100 is disposed on the circuit board as a light source and is nested in the light-transmitting light tube 401. Since the light-emitting diode 100 of the present invention has a more uniform light distribution, it can be eliminated. Generally, the phenomenon of glare of a light-emitting diode (LED) lamp.
由於本發明之發光二極體100在水平視角方向的配光曲線呈蝙蝠翼狀,其垂直視角方向的配光曲線呈朗伯特光形分佈,使得發光二極體100的光亮分佈呈現非圓對稱光形,通過調整半橢圓球形之半橢圓球形202的長軸203與短軸204的長度以及凹面201寬度L以及半橢圓斜面的曲率,使得發光二極體100的整體光形接近為非對稱橢圓形光形,以符合接近投影機所使用的光形,且可產生接近16:9比例,相較於先前的LED而言,必須採用光積分管(Integration Tunnel)或者微透鏡列陣(Micro-Lens array)技術來將對稱圓形光形轉化為非對稱橢圓形光形,本發明一方面不會增加投影的體積,另一方面也不會增加光程,以免光的損耗。Since the light distribution curve of the light-emitting diode 100 of the present invention has a batwing shape in a horizontal viewing angle direction, the light distribution curve in the vertical viewing direction is a Lambertian light-shaped distribution, so that the light distribution of the light-emitting diode 100 is non-circular. The symmetrical light shape, by adjusting the lengths of the major axis 203 and the minor axis 204 of the semi-elliptical spherical shape 202 and the curvature L of the concave surface 201 and the curvature of the semi-elliptical slope, makes the overall light shape of the light-emitting diode 100 nearly asymmetric Elliptical shape to match the light shape used by the projector, and can produce a close ratio of 16:9. Compared to previous LEDs, an integration tunnel or microlens array (Micro) must be used. The -Lens array technique is used to convert a symmetric circular shape into an asymmetric elliptical shape. On the one hand, the invention does not increase the volume of the projection, and on the other hand does not increase the optical path to avoid loss of light.
