a) Field of the Invention
The invention relates in general to a fluorescent composite resin substrate white light light emitting diode (LED), and more particularly, to an LED substrate applied to a white light LED. The device utilizes a light emitting unit fixed on the fluorescent composite resin substrate to achieve effects of emitting light from six planes as well as having high light flux and good heat dissipation.
b) Description of the Prior Art
For many years, in a conventional light emitting diode (LED) chip-on-board (COB) technology, a light emitting element is mainly directly fixed on a substrate (aluminum, PCB (Printed Circuit Board) or ceramic). However, the above LED COB technology suffers from drawbacks of being capable of emitting light through only one single plane and having low light flux that cannot be effectively enhanced.
In view of the above drawbacks, a chip-on-glass (COG) technology is later developed. In the COG technology, a light emitting element is directly fixed on a glass substrate. Thus, the COG technology features emitting light through six planes and has high light flux.
However, the COG technology has following drawbacks.
1. Compared to conventional substrates (aluminum, PCB and ceramic), the glass substrate has poorer heat dissipation efficiency.
2. Compared to the COB technology, in the manufacturing process of the COG technology, the COG glass substrate is easily broken, resulting in a yield rate of only 60%. Further, the COG technology has a slow manufacturing process.
3. As the glass substrate contains no fluorescent powder whereas a package adhesive contains fluorescent powder, color temperatures at a front side and a reverse side when the chip emits light are different.
Therefore, there is a need for a solution that improves inadequate effects and practicability of the conventional COB and COG technologies.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONIn view of the drawbacks of the conventional technologies, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a fluorescent composite resin substrate white light light emitting diode (LED) capable of emitting light through six planes as well as having high light flux and good heat dissipation.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a fluorescent composite resin substrate white light LED having a manufacturing process capable of significantly increasing yield rate and speed.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a fluorescent composite resin substrate white light LED that is free from different color temperatures at front and reverse sides.
To achieve the above and other objects, the present invention provides a fluorescent composite resin substrate white light LED applicable to a white light LED.
More particularly, the fluorescent composite resin substrate white light LED of the present invention is applicable to an LED substrate of a white light LED.
A fluorescent composite resin substrate white light LED of the present invention includes: a fluorescent composite resin substrate, formed from a mixture through a curing reaction; two conductive brackets, each being partially connected to the substrate; a light emitting unit, disposed on a surface of the substrate; two conductive lines, connected to the light emitting unit and respective connected to the conductive brackets; and a package material, formed from a mixture through a curing reaction.
The mixture forming the fluorescent composite resin substrate may include curable composite resin, a hardening agent and a fluorescent material.
The curable composite resin is a combination of resin and a glass filler.
For example, the resin in the curable composite resin is selected from a group consisting of epoxy, bisphenol A epoxy, cycloaliphatic epoxy, siloxane modified epoxy resin, acrylic modified epoxy resin, other organic modified epoxy resin, silicone, silicone gel, silicone rubber, silicone resin, and organic modified silicone resin.
The glass filler in the curable composite resin is selected from a group consisting of common glass (SiO2) and sapphire glass (Al2O3), and is presented in form of glass powder, nanoscale glass powder, nanoscale sapphire glass powder, glass balls, glass films, glass fiber, glass fiber cloth, sapphire glass powder, sapphire glass balls or sapphire glass fiber, powder reformed from a main body of SiO2, or powder reformed from a main body of Al2O3.
The hardening agent is selected from a group consisting of a hardening agent of acid anhydride, an initiator, phenolic resin and a platinum based catalyst.
The fluorescent material is mainly a yellow fluorescent material, and may further include other red, green or orange fluorescent material that assists in adjusting color temperature and rendering.
The fluorescent material is selected from a group consisting of aluminate, silicate, nitride and oxynitride fluorescent materials.
Each of the conductive brackets is partially embedded in the substrate.
The light emitting unit is a light emitting unit in form of a blue light LED die or a violet light LED die that emits a wavelength of below 500 nm.
The package material covers on the conductive lines and the light emitting unit.
In the fluorescent composite resin substrate white light LED of the present invention, the light emitting unit is fixed at the fluorescent composite resin substrate. Thus, when the present invention is applied in white light LED operations, as the light emitting unit is capable of simultaneously generating light through six planes including front, reverse and four lateral sides, light flux is naturally higher than that of the COB technology. Further, with the fluorescent powder included in the fluorescent composite resin substrate, a reverse light source of the chip is allowed to directly impact the fluorescent powder to emit white light. Thus, not only light flux is similarly greater than that of the COG technology, but also the issue of different color temperatures at front and reverse sides is eliminated. Further, on the account of the fluorescent powder in the fluorescent composite resin substrate and a design of polygonal or circular holes at the bottom, heat dissipation of the fluorescent composite resin substrate is much more effective than that of a glass substrate, and is close to that of a conventional PCB or aluminum substrate. Further, as the fluorescent composite resin includes a glass material, the fluorescent composite resin has rigidity similar to that of glass while being less brittle than pure glass, thereby providing both rigidity and resilience to hugely increase the production yield rate and speed.
