  • Patent number: 10026667
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device that includes a circuit board with p- and n-electrodes formed on a surface of a substrate and a light-emitting element connected to the p- and n-electrodes of the circuit board via a conductor member. The method includes forming two protrusions facing each other on both sides of a gap between the p- and n-electrodes of the circuit board, and dispensing a underfill at a position on an opposite side to the light-emitting element with respect to the two protrusions, allowing the dispensed underfill to flow toward the light-emitting element by a capillary action through the gap between the p- and n-electrodes of the circuit board while contacting the protrusions, and filling, by the capillary action, a gap between the circuit board and the light-emitting element with the underfill reaching a bottom of the light-emitting element.

  • Patent number: 9379094
    Abstract: A light emitting device includes a substrate, a light-emitting diode chip mounted on the substrate, a Zener diode chip mounted next to the light-emitting diode chip on the substrate, a frame-like dam material formed on the substrate to surround the light-emitting diode chip and the Zener diode chip, and a light-reflective resin injected inside the dam material to coat side surfaces of the light-emitting diode chip and side surfaces and an upper surface of the Zener diode chip. A part of the frame-like dam material swells outward to surround three of the side surfaces of the Zener diode chip.

  • Patent number: 9343618
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device includes providing a case including an annular sidewall and an LED chip including a chip substrate and a crystal layer and mounted in a region surrounded by the sidewall of the case, and dripping a droplet of an electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin so as to fill a space between the sidewall and the LED chip. The droplet is attracted toward the sidewall by an electrostatic force during the dripping.

  • Patent number: 9184354
    Abstract: A light-emitting device includes a plurality of LED chips arranged in series and each including a chip substrate and a crystal layer including a light-emitting layer. One of the plurality of LED chips is configured such that the chip substrate thereof includes a side surface facing another adjacent LED chip of the plurality of LED chips. The side surface has a highest cleavability among all side surfaces of the chip substrate of the one of the plurality of LED chips.

  • Patent number: 7989236
    Abstract: A method of making a light emitting device includes mixing a glass powder with a phosphor powder including at least one of a sulfide phosphor, an aluminate phosphor and a silicate phosphor to produce a mixed powder in which the phosphor powder is dispersed in the glass powder, heating and softening the mixed powder to provide an integrated material, and subsequently solidifying the integrated material to provide a phosphor-dispersed glass, and fusion-bonding the phosphor-dispersed glass onto a mounting portion on which a light emitting element is mounted by hot pressing, and simultaneously sealing the light emitting element with the phosphor-dispersed glass on the mounting portion.
