Abstract: A liquid discharge head includes a head body, a driver IC, a housing, a heat dissipation plate, and a pressing member. The head body includes a discharge hole configured to discharge a liquid. The driver IC controls driving of the head body. The housing is located on the head body, and includes an opening at a side surface. The heat dissipation plate is located at the opening of the housing, and is configured to dissipate heat generated by the driver IC. The pressing member presses the driver IC against the heat dissipation plate. In addition, the heat dissipation plate is fixed to the pressing member.

Abstract: A GaN-based LED element 1 having a double heterostructure, which includes a GaN layer and the like and is formed on a sapphire substrate, is mounted face-down on a Si diode element 2 formed in a silicon substrate. Electrical connections are provided via Au microbumps 11 and 12 between a p-side electrode 5 of the GaN-based LED element 1 and an n-side electrode 8 of the Si diode element 2 and between an n-side electrode 6 of the GaN-based LED element 1 and a p-side electrode 7 of the Si diode element 2. The Si diode element 2 functions to protect the LED element 1 from an electrostatic destruction. The Si diode element 2 has a backside electrode 9 connected to a leadframe 13a. The p-side electrode 7 of the Si diode element 2 has a bonding pad portion 10 connected to a leadframe 13b via an Au wire 17.
