  • Patent number: 11239144
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a mounting substrate; a first wiring electrode and a second wiring electrode disposed on a main surface of a mounting substrate; an interposing member disposed between the first wiring electrode and the second wiring electrode; a semiconductor element flip-chip connected with the first wiring electrode and the second wiring electrode via a first electrical connection member and a second electrical connection member so as to at least partially overlap the interposing member in a top surface view; and a resin disposed in contact with the semiconductor element and the mounting substrate. The wettability of the interposing member to the resin is higher than that of the mounting substrate to the resin. The resin is disposed in contact with the semiconductor element and the interposing member.

    Abstract: A light emitting device includes a wiring substrate including an n-electrode and a p-electrode wired on a surface of the substrate, a light emitting element including an n-pad electrode joined directly to the n-electrode and a p-pad electrode joined directly to the p-electrode, a first gap between the n-electrode and the p-electrode, with the light emitting element being installed across that first gap, and an underfill, which fills a space between the wiring substrate and the light emitting element. At least one of the n-pad electrode and the p-pad electrode is divided into two islands with a linear shape second gap therebetween. The second gap is continuous with a linear shape third gap between the n-pad electrode and the p-pad electrode.

  • Patent number: 8633499
    Abstract: There is a reflective layer covering almost the entire surface of the light emitting portion except the portions where the light emitting elements are arranged, it is possible to increase the reflectivity of the light emitting portion to realize a higher luminance. In addition, the heat generated from the light emitting elements can be dissipated through the reflective layer, so that it is possible to prevent overheat of the light emitting device, and it is thus possible to improve the reliability of the light emitting device.

  • Patent number: 4739235
    Abstract: In a thermal cutting machine provided with an NC system of the type having a manual pulse generator allowing the operator to manually adjust the working head height from a workpiece a profile control apparatus is provided to maintain a reference distance between the head and a non-flat workpiece. The profile control apparatus is installed in the cutting machine, by adding only a head distance sensor and a Z-axis controller in parallel with the manual pulse generator via a selector switch. The Z-axis controller generates a pulse signal having a frequency proportional to a differential voltage between a reference head height determined by the NC system and an actual head height detected by the head distance sensor to correct the reference head height from the non-flat workpiece. The V-F conversion characteristics of the Z-axis controller are of Z-type, in particular, to reduce the profile error.
