  • Patent number: 8823009
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a highly reliable display device at a low cost with high yield. According to the present invention, a step due to an opening in a contact is covered with an insulating layer to reduce the step, and is processed into a gentle shape. A wiring or the like is formed to be in contact with the insulating layer and thus the coverage of the wiring or the like is enhanced. In addition, deterioration of a light-emitting element due to contaminants such as water can be prevented by sealing a layer including an organic material that has water permeability in a display device with a sealing material. Since the sealing material is formed in a portion of a driver circuit region in the display device, the frame margin of the display device can be narrowed.

    Abstract: An LED device and method of manufacture including separately coupling a thin flexible interposer and an LED die to a heat sink structure and then electrically coupling the interposer and the LED die together with a wirebond. A specifically shaped perimeter of an aperture within the interposer negates the need for a cavity or alignment markings within the heat sink structure by limiting the orientation in which the die fits within the aperture. Alternatively, an LED device and method of manufacture include coupling a rigid circuit board to an LED die such that electrical contacts of the die are electrically coupled with electrical input/output terminals of the circuit board. This die/board unit is then able to be coupled to a heat sink structure to form a portion of the device.

  • Patent number: 8772819
    Abstract: A multi-layer array type LED device is provided, which includes a substrate, an encapsulation body, two lead frames, a plurality of LED dices, and a set of optical lens. The outer circumferential edge and the upper and lower periphery of the substrate are completely encapsulated by the encapsulation body so that the multi-layer array type LED device can be tightly packaged. In the present invention, a fluorescent layer is disposed between an optical grease layer and a silica gel protection layer, and thereby the fluorescent layer is protected, and is capable of preventing moisture from permeating therein. On the other hand, in the present invention, the reflection coefficient of the optical grease layer is at least larger than a certain value so that the probability of the light emitted out of the optical chamber can be increased.
