  • Patent number: 8035122
    Abstract: The present invention relates to light diffusion type light emitting diodes, more particularly, to a light emitting device having a large divergence angle by widely spreading an emitted light from a single color to a white color and a method thereof. The light emitting diode including the encapsulating layer according to the present invention is characterized by including at least two materials with different characteristics. According to the present invention, an encapsulating material for light emitting diode is mixed with at least two materials with a different polarity or a refractive index to easily form a light emitting diode. In addition, the light emitting diode die is bonded on the bottom surface of a cup, and an encapsulating material and microspheres are dispersed in the vicinity and upper portion of the light emitting diode and the entire light emitting diode, therefore the light emitting diode has a large and uniform divergence angle due to a light uniformly scattered and refracted.

  • Patent number: 7612385
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a package structure including at least one high power light-emitting diode to exhibit excellent heat release properties. In the package structure, a light-emitting diode chip which generates heat is directly attached to a beacon processed to protrude from part of a heat spreader having high heat conductivity, whereby an electrical wiring portion is separated from a heat release portion, thus maximizing heat release properties and realizing high luminance and reliability.
