Based on the physical parameters of the ceramic substrate, such as thermal conductivity and dielectric constant, the effects of different treatment methods on adhesion under specific parameter conditions are compared, and the optimal surface roughness Ra and laser micromachining parameters are selected. If the roughness Ra is less than Rmin, adjust the plasma cleaning time and laser micromachining power; if Ra is greater than Rmax, reduce the treatment intensity to improve the adhesion between the subsequent packaging material and the substrate. By performing special pretreatment on the substrate, the adhesion between the substrate and the packaging material is improved, and the reliability of the light source is enhanced.

[0039] Step 2: Chip bonding: Fix LED chips of different color temperatures in pre-designed areas on the substrate. Use silver glue with a silver content of no less than 80% as the bonding material. Use a high-precision bonding machine to ensure that the chip position deviation is less than ±20μm.

[0040] Step 3. Wire bonding: The gold ball bonding process is adopted, and gold wires with a diameter of 15 μm are used. The bonding pressure is controlled at 5 g, the ultrasonic power is 10 W, and the bonding time is 1 ms. Gold wires with specific tensile strength and diameter are used for experiments to investigate the effects of different bonding pressures, ultrasonic powers, and bonding times on the bonding quality, and the most suitable bonding process is selected based on the characteristics of the gold wires and the target requirements of maximizing electrical reliability. If the tensile strength of the gold wire is T and the diameter is D, when T*D≥Kmin, ensure that the process parameters are within the effective range; otherwise, appropriately reduce the bonding time and pressure to ensure reliable electrical connection between the chip and the substrate. Through high-precision chip die bonding and optimized wire bonding processes, the chip position accuracy and electrical connection reliability are guaranteed, and the optical performance consistency of the light source is improved.

[0041] Step 4. Phosphor layer preparation: Measure the luminous efficiency of different batches of LED chips, record the corresponding data, and analyze the relationship between the chip luminous efficiency and the required phosphor ratio. According to the dual-color temperature requirements, adjust the ratio of blue-light-excited yellow phosphor and red-light-excited green phosphor in the mixed phosphor based on the measured chip luminous efficiency. If the phosphor ratio is P and the chip luminous efficiency is E, when E<L, set the phosphor ratio P = P1; when E>H, set the phosphor ratio P = P2 (where L and H respectively represent the preset lower and upper luminous efficiency thresholds). The mixed phosphor slurry is evenly coated on the chip surface through inkjet printing technology, and the thickness of the phosphor layer is controlled at 50 μm to achieve precise regulation of dual-color temperatures of 3000 K and 5000 K respectively. Through precise phosphor ratio regulation and inkjet printing coating technology, precise regulation of dual-color temperature is achieved, meeting the lighting requirements of different scenarios.

Encapsulation glue filling: A high-transparency, low-refractive-index silicone encapsulation glue added with 0.1% by mass of nano-titanium dioxide particles is used for filling in a vacuum environment with a vacuum degree of 10 Pa. During the filling process, the flow rate of the encapsulation glue is controlled at 0.1 mL / s to ensure that the encapsulation glue evenly covers the chip and the phosphor layer, avoiding the generation of bubbles. By adding the nano-titanium dioxide particle-containing encapsulation glue, the ultraviolet resistance and mechanical strength are improved, and the service life of the light source is extended.

Experiments are conducted using gold wire with specific tensile strength and diameter to examine the effects of different bonding pressures, ultrasonic power and bonding time on the bonding quality. The most suitable bonding process is selected based on the gold wire characteristics and the goal of maximizing electrical reliability. If the tensile strength of the gold wire is T and the diameter is D, when T*D≥Kmin, ensure that the process parameters are within the valid range. Otherwise, appropriately reduce the bonding time and pressure to ensure reliable electrical connection between the chip and the substrate. Through high-precision chip bonding and optimized wire bonding process, the chip position accuracy and electrical connection reliability are guaranteed, and the optical performance consistency of the light source is improved.

[0050] Step 4. Preparation of phosphor layer: Measure the luminous efficiency of LED chips in different batches, record the corresponding data, and analyze the relationship between the chip luminous efficiency and the required phosphor ratio.

Uniformly coat the mixed phosphor slurry on the chip surface through inkjet printing technology, control the thickness of the phosphor layer at 150 μm, and achieve precise regulation of dual-color temperatures of 4000K and 6000K. Through precise regulation of the phosphor ratio and inkjet printing coating technology, precise regulation of dual-color temperatures is achieved, meeting the lighting requirements of different scenarios.

[0051] Step 5. Filling of encapsulation glue: Use a high-transparency, low-refractive-index silicone encapsulation glue added with 0.5% by mass of nano-titanium dioxide particles for filling in a vacuum environment with a vacuum degree of 100 Pa. During the filling process, control the flow rate of the encapsulation glue at 0.5 mL / s to ensure that the encapsulation glue uniformly covers the chip and the phosphor layer and avoid generating bubbles.
