Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a light emitting element filament used as a light source, and more particularly to a filament type light source including a light emitting element such as a light emitting diode. Background Art

[0002] Although light bulbs using filaments as light sources are used in the prior art, they are gradually being replaced by light sources using light-emitting elements such as light-emitting diodes because of their low light output and high power consumption. In the case of using light-emitting elements, the light-emitting elements are also designed as filaments in the same shape as existing filament light bulbs, thereby being developed to have decorative properties.

[0003] However, when a light source similar to a conventional filament bulb is manufactured using a light-emitting element, the light-emitting element often becomes detached when the filament is bent. Summary of the invention

[0034] Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0035] The present invention can be varied and can have various forms, and specific embodiments are shown in the drawings and described in detail herein. However, this is not intended to limit the present invention to a specific disclosed form, but should be understood to include all changes, equivalents and substitutes included in the concept and technical scope of the present invention.

[0036] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] Figure 1a , Figure 1b as well as Figure 1cis a diagram illustrating a filament of a light emitting element according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1a is a three-dimensional diagram of a filament of a light-emitting element according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1b is a floor plan, and Figure 1c It is a cross-section view.

[0038] The light emitting element filament of the present invention is a light source using a light emitting element as a constituent element for emitting light, and is a light source having a long extended linear shape, that is, a filament shape.

[0039] Reference Figure 1a , Figure 1b as well as Figure 1c The light emitting element filament has a bar shape extending long in one direction. The light emitting element filament includes a substrate 10 on which a light emitting element chip 20 is mounted, at least one light emitting element chip 20 disposed on the substrate 10, and an auxiliary pattern 30 disposed on the substrate 10 corresponding to the light emitting element chip 20.

[0040] The substrate 10 is extended in one direction to form the overall shape of the light emitting element filament. The substrate 10 can be set in a plate shape and can have a first surface 11a and a second surface 11b opposite to each other. One or more light emitting element chips 20 are set on at least one of the first surface 11a and the second surface 11b of the substrate.

[0041] Hereinafter, the light emitting element chip 20 is provided on the first surface 11a of the two surfaces of the substrate 10 as an example for description. Furthermore, the first surface 11a is referred to as the upper surface, and the second surface 11b is referred to as the lower surface. However, the terms such as the upper surface and the lower surface are described in consideration of relative directions for the convenience of description, and may indicate different directions depending on the arrangement of the light emitting element filaments.

[0042] The substrate 10 may be flexible and may be made of an insulating material. The flexible insulating substrate may be made of a variety of materials (e.g., glass, polymer, etc.). In particular, the substrate 10 may be an insulating substrate made of an organic polymer. Insulating substrate materials including the organic polymer include polystyrene, polyvinyl alcohol, polymethyl methacrylate, polyethersulfone, polyacrylate, polyetherimide, polyethylene naphthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyphenylene sulfide, polyarylate, polyimide, polycarbonate, triacetate cellulose, cellulose acetate propionate, and the like. However, the material constituting the substrate 10 is not limited thereto. For example, the substrate 10 may be made of fiber glass reinforced plastic (FRP).

[0043] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, as long as the appropriate degree of flexibility and insulation can be satisfied, the substrate 10 can be made of a conductive material. When a conductive material is used for the substrate 10, an insulating material is coated on the surface of the substrate 10 so that insulation can be maintained as a whole. When the substrate 10 is made of a conductive material, a single metal or an alloy thereof of Al, Zn, Ag, W, Ti, Ni, Au, Mo, Pt, Pd, Cu, Cr or Fe can be used.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, a polyimide substrate may be used as the flexible insulating substrate.

[0045] At least one light emitting element chip 20 is disposed on the first surface 11a. The light emitting element chip 20 emits light. The light emitted from the light emitting element chip 20 is ultraviolet light, infrared light, visible light, etc., and is not particularly limited. However, in one embodiment of the present invention, visible light can be emitted. The structure of the light emitting element chip 20 will be described later.

[0046] The light emitting element chip 20 is disposed on the first surface 11a of the substrate. The light emitting element chip 20 may be provided in one or more numbers. The light emitting element chip may be provided in various numbers according to the area of ​​the substrate.

[0047] The light emitting element chips 20 may be arranged in a row or in a column in the length direction of the substrate 10. However, the arrangement of the light emitting element chips 20 is not limited thereto, and they may also be arranged randomly.

[0048] Each light emitting element chip 20 can emit light of multiple colors. As each light emitting element chip 20, various forms capable of emitting light can be used, and a light emitting diode according to an embodiment of the present invention can be used.

[0049] Each light emitting element chip 20 can emit white light and / or colored light. Each light emitting element chip 20 can emit one color, or can emit white light and / or colored light by combining different colors. In this regard, in one embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting element chip 20 may include a red light emitting element, a green light emitting element, and a blue light emitting element. However, the color of the light emitted by the light emitting element chip 20 is not limited thereto, and each light emitting element chip 20 can emit light of colors such as cyan, magenta, and yellow.

[0050] Although not in Figure 1a to Figure 1c As shown in the figure, however, each light emitting element chip 20 is connected separately or individually via a connection wiring 53. The connection wiring 53 supplies the light emitting element chip 20 with power.

[0051] Electrode pads connected to the connection wiring 53 are provided at both ends of the substrate 10. If both ends of the substrate are referred to as a first end 13a and a second end 13b, a first electrode pad 51a and a second electrode pad 51b are provided at the first end 13a and the second end 13b, respectively.

[0052] The connection wiring 53 electrically connects the electrode portion and the electrode pad in the light emitting element chip 20, or electrically connects the electrode portion between the light emitting element chips 20. The connection form of the connection wiring 53 electrically connects the electrode pad and the light emitting element chip 20 in various forms depending on whether the light emitting elements 20 are connected in series, in parallel, or in a mixed form of series and parallel.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the connection wiring 53 and the first electrode pad 51 a and the second electrode pad 51 b may be formed on the substrate in the form of a plated film.

[0054] The top surfaces of the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are exposed to the outside and connected to a wiring connection portion (e.g., a plug-in electrode terminal or a connector, etc.) capable of providing power, thereby providing power to the light-emitting element chip 20. In one embodiment of the present invention, as long as the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b respectively disposed on the first end portion 13a and the second end portion 13b can be electrically connected, they can be fastened to other wiring connection portions using solder, connectors, etc. in various forms.

[0055] A first insulating film 41 covering the light emitting element chip 20 is provided on the first surface 11a of the substrate 10 provided with the light emitting element chip 20 and the connection wiring 53. The first insulating film 41 is not provided on the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b.

[0056] The first insulating film 41 covers the light emitting element chip 20 from the upper part to the lower part, thereby protecting the light emitting element chip 20 .

[0057] In addition to protecting the light-emitting element chip 20, the first insulating film 41 can also function as a light conversion layer that converts the wavelength of light emitted from the light-emitting element chip 20. When the first insulating film 41 is used as a light conversion layer, the first insulating film 41 may include a substance that absorbs light of a specific wavelength and then emits light of other wavelengths, such as nanoparticles or phosphors. In one embodiment of the present invention, the first insulating film 41 may include a phosphor as a light conversion material. When the first insulating film 41 is not a light conversion layer, the first insulating film 41 may be made of a transparent material that allows the light emitted from the light-emitting element chip 20 to pass through to the maximum extent.

[0058] Each light emitting element chip 20 does not necessarily use green, red and / or blue light emitting elements to achieve the above colors, but can use light emitting element chips other than the above colors. In this embodiment, since the first insulating film 41 contains a phosphor, the wavelength of light emitted from the light emitting element chip 20 can be converted.

[0059] For example, although a red light emitting diode can be used to realize red, a blue or ultraviolet light emitting diode can be used while a phosphor that absorbs blue or ultraviolet light and emits red light can be used to emit red light. In the same way, although a green light emitting diode can be used to realize green, a blue or ultraviolet light emitting diode can be used while a phosphor that absorbs blue or ultraviolet light and emits green light can be used to emit green light.

[0060] The first insulating film 41 containing a phosphor is provided on the substrate and can cover at least one light emitting element chip 20. In other words, the first insulating film 41 can be provided in a form covering each light emitting element chip 20, or in a form covering more than two light emitting element chips 20. Although the first insulating film 41 is provided in a form covering all the light emitting element chips 20 in one embodiment of the present invention, it is not limited thereto, and can also be provided in a form separated from each other according to the area on the substrate 10. For example, when there are six light emitting element chips 20 on the substrate 10, the first insulating film 41 can cover all six light emitting element chips 20, or the first insulating film 41 can be divided into two parts and cover three light emitting element chips 20 respectively. In the case where the first insulating film 41 containing a phosphor is provided in a plurality of separated parts, each of the first insulating films 41 can be an insulating film that converts a specific light into light of the same color as each other, or an insulating film that converts a specific light into light of different colors.

[0061] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first insulating film 41 may not be provided on the light emitting element chip 20 as required. When the first insulating film 41 is not provided on the light emitting element chip 20, a separate structure for protecting the light emitting element chip 20 may or may not be provided, and its form is not limited.

[0062] The first insulating film 41 can be provided only on the upper surface of the substrate 10 in an embodiment of the present invention within the range of covering the light emitting element chip 20 and changing the color of the emitted light. The first insulating film 41 is provided on the upper surface of the substrate 10, and in particular, is provided only on a portion of the upper surface of the substrate 10, so that a portion of the upper surface of the substrate and a portion of the side surface of the substrate 10 are exposed to the outside, thereby making it easy to form heat dissipation through the substrate 10. Accordingly, the light emitted from the light emitting element chip 20 can be efficiently removed, thereby reducing the defective rate of the light emitting element chip 20.

[0063] Auxiliary patterns 30 are provided on the second surface 11b of the substrate where each light emitting element chip 20 is provided, in a manner corresponding to the position where the light emitting element chip 20 is arranged. The auxiliary patterns 30 may be spaced apart from each other according to the arrangement positions of the light emitting element chips 20.

[0064] In the substrate, the auxiliary pattern 30 reduces the degree of bending or flowing of the region corresponding to the light emitting element chip 20 compared with other regions, thereby stably supporting a part of the region of the substrate 10 .

[0065] When viewed from a plane, the auxiliary pattern 30 may have a shape corresponding to the shape of each light emitting element chip 20. For example, when the shape of the light emitting element chip 20 is rectangular, the shape of the auxiliary pattern 30 may also be rectangular. When the light emitting element chip 20 is circular, the shape of the auxiliary pattern 30 may also be circular.

[0066] The auxiliary pattern 30 is provided on the lower surface of the substrate 10 corresponding to the region where the light emitting element chip 20 is provided, and accordingly, the auxiliary pattern 30 and the light emitting element chip 20 may at least partially overlap when viewed from a planar perspective.

[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, the auxiliary pattern 30 may have a larger area than the light emitting element chip 20. In this case, when viewed from a plane, the light emitting element chip 20 and the auxiliary pattern 30 may partially or completely overlap. Figure 1b as well as Figure 1c As shown, when the light emitting element chip 20 is provided in a rectangular shape having a first width W1, the auxiliary pattern 30 may be provided in a rectangular shape having a second width W2 wider than the first width W1. At this time, the area of ​​the auxiliary pattern 30 may be larger than the area of ​​the light emitting element chip 20, and the light emitting element chip 20 may be arranged within the shape of the auxiliary pattern 30 when viewed from a plane.

[0068] Here, the area of ​​the auxiliary pattern 30 can be set in consideration of not only the size of the light emitting element chip 20 itself, but also the conductive adhesive component 61 (for example, the size of the contact portion of the wire wiring or solder connected to the light emitting element chip 20) provided when the light emitting element chip 20 is mounted on the first surface 11a of the substrate 10. The auxiliary pattern 30 is provided in a manner that sufficiently includes the size of the wire wiring or solder connected to the light emitting element chip 20, so that the detachment of the wire wiring or solder can be prevented or reduced due to the support of the auxiliary pattern 30.

[0069] The auxiliary pattern 30 controls the flexibility of the substrate 10 in the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is provided and the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is not provided. The auxiliary pattern can be formed of a material with a relatively higher hardness than the flexible substrate, and accordingly, in the substrate 10, the flexibility of the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is provided is reduced compared with the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is not provided. Therefore, in the case where the light-emitting element filament is bent, the area where the auxiliary pattern 330 is formed is less bent than the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is not formed. As a result, the curvature of the surface of the substrate 10 where the light-emitting element chip 20 is provided will be reduced, thereby reducing the probability of the light-emitting element chip 20 being separated from the substrate.

[0070] The material of the auxiliary pattern 30 has a greater hardness than the material of the substrate 10, and can be made of a material different from the substrate 10. The material of the auxiliary pattern 30 can be made of glass, polymer, metal, metal alloy, etc. The auxiliary pattern 30 can be made of a material with a greater hardness than the material constituting the substrate 10. For example, the auxiliary pattern 30 can be made of a metal or the like among the above materials of the substrate 10.

[0071] The second insulating film 43 covering the auxiliary pattern 30 may be provided on the second surface 11 b of the substrate on which the auxiliary pattern 30 is formed.

[0072] The second insulating film 43 may be provided on the second face 11b corresponding to the region where the first insulating film 41 is provided. For example, the second insulating film 43 may be formed to have the same shape and the same area as the first insulating film 41, and overlap with the first insulating film 41 when viewed from a plane. Furthermore, in the case where the first insulating film 41 is provided as a plurality of separate pieces, the second insulating film 43 may be provided as a plurality of separate pieces corresponding thereto. The auxiliary patterns 30 are provided in substantially the same number and in the same shape corresponding to the light-emitting element chips 20, so that the first insulating film 41 and the second insulating film 43 covering these may also be provided in the same number and in the same shape. The first insulating film 41 and the second insulating film 43 are provided in the same shape, so that even if the first face 11a is bent in the direction of protrusion or depression with reference to the substrate 10, pressure may be applied to both faces of the substrate 10 to a similar degree.

[0073] The second insulating film 43 may contain a fluorescent substance or not. When the light-emitting element chip 20 is disposed on the second surface 11b of the substrate, the second insulating layer 43 may also contain a fluorescent substance and be used as a light conversion layer. When the light-emitting element chip 20 is not disposed on the second surface 11b of the substrate, the second insulating film 43 does not need to contain a fluorescent substance.

[0074] In the above embodiment, for the convenience of explanation, only the substrate 10, the light-emitting element chip 20, the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b, the first insulating film 41 and the second insulating film 42 are illustrated, but other additional components may also be provided. For example, an insulating adhesive layer for attaching the light-emitting element chip 20 to the substrate 10 may be provided between the substrate 10 and the light-emitting element chip 20. The connection wiring 53 may be provided on the insulating adhesive layer, and a photosensitive solder resist (PSR) may be provided between the connection wiring 53 and the phosphor.

[0075] In the light emitting element filament having the above structure, even if the substrate 10 is bent, the hardness of the portion where the light emitting element chip 20 is mounted is maintained relatively high by the auxiliary pattern 30 to reduce the degree of bending, thereby preventing or significantly reducing the detachment of the light emitting element chip 20. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, the auxiliary pattern 30 and the second insulating film 43 may be deformed in various forms. That is, it is obvious that the auxiliary pattern 30 and the second insulating film 43 may be formed into different shapes, for example, different areas or different thicknesses, according to the bending direction and degree of the light emitting element filament, the bonding strength of the light emitting element chip 20, etc.

[0077] Figure 2a as well as Figure 2b 1 is a plan view and a cross-sectional view of a filament of a light emitting element according to another embodiment of the present invention. In the following embodiments, in order to avoid repeated description, the differences from the above embodiments are mainly described, and the parts not described will be based on the above embodiments.

[0078] Reference Figure 2a as well as Figure 2b , the auxiliary pattern 30 may have the same area as or smaller than the light emitting element chip 20 . Figure 2a as well as Figure 2b As an example, the auxiliary pattern 30 is shown to have a smaller area than the light emitting element chip 20 .

[0079] In this case, when viewed from a plane, the light emitting element chip 20 may partially overlap the auxiliary pattern 30. For example, when the light emitting element chip 20 is provided in a rectangular shape having a first width W1, the auxiliary pattern 30 may be provided in a rectangular shape having a second width W2 smaller than the first width W1. At this time, the area of ​​the auxiliary pattern 30 may be smaller than the area of ​​the light emitting element chip 20, and when viewed from a plane, the auxiliary pattern 30 may be arranged within the shape of the light emitting element chip 20.

[0080] Here, the area of ​​the auxiliary pattern 30 can be set in consideration of the strength of the light emitting element chip 20 adhering to the substrate 10, the degree of curvature of the substrate 10, and the size of the contact portion of the wire wiring or the solder connected to the light emitting element chip 20. If the degree of adhesion of the light emitting element chip 20 to the substrate 10 is relatively large, the area of ​​the auxiliary pattern 30 does not necessarily need to be formed larger than the light emitting element chip 20. In this case, the hardness of the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is formed and the area near it is generally greater than that of the area where the auxiliary pattern 30 is not provided, and as a result, the detachment of the wire wiring or the solder can be prevented or reduced by the support of the auxiliary pattern 30.

[0081] The light emitting element chip 20 according to an embodiment of the present invention can be implemented in various forms. The structure of the light emitting element chip 20 will be described below.

[0082] Figure 3a as well as Figure 3b FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a light emitting element chip 20 implemented as a light emitting diode according to an embodiment of the present invention. The light emitting diode can be constructed in various forms such as a vertical type or a flip-chip type. Figure 3a The vertical type is shown in the figure. Figure 3b However, the structure of the light emitting diode is not limited thereto, and the following drawings should be understood as an embodiment of the present invention.

[0083] First, refer to Figure 3a The vertical light emitting element chip 20 will be described. The light emitting element chip 20 is provided on the first surface 11 a of the substrate via the insulating adhesive layer 130 .

[0084] The light emitting element chip 20 may include an element substrate 121 , a first conductive type semiconductor layer 123 , an active layer 125 , a second conductive type semiconductor layer 127 , and first and second contact electrodes 140 a and 140 b .

[0085] The element substrate 121 is a growth substrate (eg, a ceramic substrate) for growing a III-V group nitride-based semiconductor layer, and may be a patterned ceramic substrate in particular. The element substrate 121 is preferably an insulating substrate, but is not limited to an insulating substrate.

[0086] The first conductive semiconductor layer 123, the active layer 125, and the second conductive semiconductor layer 127 are sequentially disposed on the element substrate 121. The first conductive type and the second conductive type are opposite polarities to each other. When the first conductive type is n-type, the second conductive type is p-type, and when the first conductive type is p-type, the second conductive type is n-type. In one embodiment of the present invention, as an example, it is described that the n-type semiconductor layer, the active layer, and the p-type semiconductor layer are sequentially formed on the element substrate 121.

[0087] The n-type semiconductor layer, the active layer, and the p-type semiconductor layer can be formed with a III-V group nitride-based semiconductor, for example, a nitride-based semiconductor such as (Al, Ga, In)N. The n-type semiconductor layer, the active layer, and the p-type semiconductor layer can be formed by growing on a substrate in a chamber using a well-known method such as metal organic chemical deposition growth (MOCVD). In addition, the n-type semiconductor layer includes an n-type dopant (for example, Si, Ge, Sn), and the p-type semiconductor layer includes a p-type dopant (for example, Mg, Sr, Ba). For example, in one embodiment, the n-type semiconductor layer may include GaN or AlGaN containing Si as a dopant, and the p-type semiconductor layer may include GaN or AlGaN containing Mg as a dopant. The n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer are illustrated in the accompanying drawings as single layers, but these layers may be multiple layers and may also include superlattice layers. The active layer may include a single quantum well structure or a multiple quantum well structure, and the combination ratio of the nitride-based semiconductor is adjusted to emit a desired wavelength. For example, the active layer may emit blue light or ultraviolet light.

[0088] A first contact electrode 140 a is disposed on the first conductive semiconductor layer 123 where the active layer 125 and the second conductive semiconductor layer 127 are not disposed, and a second contact electrode 140 b is disposed on the second conductive semiconductor layer 127 .

[0089] The first contact electrode 140a and / or the second contact electrode 140b may be formed of a single layer or multiple layers of metal. The first contact electrode 140a and / or the second contact electrode 140b may be made of a metal such as Al, Ti, Cr, Ni, Au, or an alloy thereof.

[0090] In one embodiment of the present invention, although the light-emitting element chip 20 is simply described together with the accompanying drawings, the light-emitting element chip 20 may include layers with additional functions in addition to the above-mentioned layers. For example, an electron blocking layer may be arranged on the active layer 120. The electron blocking layer is arranged between the active layer 125 and the second conductive semiconductor layer 127, and serves to block the electrons that cannot be combined with holes in the active layer due to the relatively high energy band gap from diffusing toward the second conductive semiconductor layer 127. Such an electron blocking layer may include, for example, aluminum gallium nitride (ALGaN). In addition, the light-emitting element chip 20 may also include a reflective layer for reflecting light, an additional insulating layer for insulating specific components, a solder prevention layer for preventing solder diffusion, and other layers.

[0091] The first contact electrode 140a and / or the second contact electrode 140b are connected to the connection wiring 53 described later through wires. The first power supply and the second power supply are applied to the connection wiring 53, and the first power supply and the second power supply are applied to the first contact electrode and the second contact electrode through wires, so that the light emitting element chip 20 is driven to emit light.

[0092] Then, refer to Figure 3b The flip-chip light emitting element chip 20 includes a light-transmitting substrate 221, a first conductive semiconductor layer 223, an active layer 225, a second conductive semiconductor layer 227, a first contact electrode 220a, a second contact electrode 220b, an insulating layer 229, a first terminal 220a' and a second terminal 220b'.

[0093] Here, the light-transmitting substrate 221 may be made of a material that can transmit light and scatter and disperse light. For example, it may be glass or a growth substrate (e.g., a ceramic substrate) for growing a III-V group nitride-based semiconductor layer, and in particular, it may be a patterned ceramic substrate. Although the light-transmitting substrate 221 is preferably an insulating substrate, it is not limited to an insulating substrate.

[0094] A semiconductor layer is provided on the light-transmitting substrate 221. In one embodiment, in the case of a light-emitting element emitting green light, the semiconductor layer may include indium gallium nitride (InGaN), gallium nitride (GaN), gallium phosphide (GaP), aluminum gallium indium phosphide (AlGaInP), and aluminum gallium phosphide (AlGaP).

[0095] Specifically, the semiconductor layer includes a first conductive type semiconductor layer 223, an active layer 225, and a second conductive type semiconductor layer 227. The first conductive type and the second conductive type are opposite polarities to each other. When the first conductive type is n-type, the second conductive type is p-type, and when the first conductive type is p-type, the second conductive type is n-type. In one embodiment of the present invention, an example is taken in which the n-type semiconductor layer 223, the active layer 225, and the p-type semiconductor layer 227 are sequentially formed on the light-transmitting substrate 221.

[0096] The n-type semiconductor layer 223, the active layer 225, and the p-type semiconductor layer 227 may be formed of a III-V group nitride semiconductor, for example, a nitride semiconductor such as (Al, Ga, In)N. The n-type semiconductor layer 223, the active layer 225, and the p-type semiconductor layer 227 may be formed by growing on the light-transmitting substrate 221 in a chamber using a well-known method such as metal organic chemical deposition (MOCVD). In addition, the n-type semiconductor layer 223 includes an n-type dopant (for example, Si, Ge, Sn), and the p-type semiconductor layer 227 includes a p-type dopant (for example, Mg, Sr, Ba). In one embodiment, the n-type semiconductor layer 223 may include GaN or AlGaN containing Si as a dopant, and the p-type semiconductor layer 227 may include GaN or AlGaN containing Mg as a dopant.

[0097] The n-type semiconductor layer 223 and the p-type semiconductor layer 227 are shown as single layers in the drawings, but these layers can be multiple layers and can also include superlattice layers. The active layer 225 can include a single quantum well structure or a multi-quantum well structure, and the combination ratio of the nitride semiconductor is adjusted to emit a desired wavelength. For example, the active layer 225 can emit blue light or ultraviolet light.

[0098] A first contact electrode 220 a is disposed on the first conductive semiconductor layer 223 where the active layer 225 and the second conductive semiconductor layer 227 are not disposed, and a second contact electrode 220 b is disposed on the second conductive semiconductor layer 227 .

[0099] The first contact electrode 220a and / or the second contact electrode 220b may be formed of a single layer or multiple layers of metal. The first contact electrode 220a and / or the second contact electrode 220b may be made of a metal such as Al, Ti, Cr, Ni, Au, or an alloy thereof.

[0100] An insulating layer 229 is provided on the first contact electrode 220a and the second contact electrode 220b. A first terminal 220a' connected to the first contact electrode 220 through a contact hole and a second terminal 220b' connected to the second contact electrode 220b through a contact hole are provided on the insulating layer.

[0101] The first terminal 220a' may be connected to one of the first and second connection electrodes through the second conductive adhesive layer, and the second terminal 220b' may be connected to the remaining one of the first and second connection electrodes through the second conductive adhesive layer.

[0102] The first terminal 220a' and / or the second terminal 220b' may be formed of a single layer or multiple layers of metal. The first terminal 220a' and / or the second terminal 220b' may be made of metals such as Al, Ti, Cr, Ni, Au, and alloys thereof.

[0103] Here, a plurality of protrusions for improving light emission efficiency may be provided on the back side of the light-transmitting substrate 221 (i.e., the side opposite to the side provided with the active layer 225). The protrusions may be provided in various forms such as polygonal pyramids, hemispheres, or randomly arranged and roughened surfaces.

[0104] In one embodiment of the present invention, although the light emitting element is simply described together with the drawings, the light emitting element may include layers having additional functions in addition to the above-mentioned layers. For example, it may include a reflection layer for reflecting light, an additional insulation layer for insulating specific components, a solder prevention layer for preventing solder diffusion, and other layers.

[0105] Furthermore, when forming a flip-chip type light emitting element, it is obvious that the mesa can be formed in various forms, the first contact electrode 220a and the second contact electrode 220b or the first terminal 220a' and

[0106] The position or shape of the second terminal 220b' may be changed in various ways.

[0107] The first terminal 220a' and the second terminal 220b' are provided with a conductive first soldering portion 230a and a second soldering portion 230b, respectively, and are adhered to the connection wiring 53 provided on the substrate through the first soldering portion 230a and the second soldering portion 230b. The first power supply and the second power supply are applied to the connection wiring, and the first power supply and the second power supply are applied to the first contact electrode 220a and the second contact electrode 220b through the first soldering portion 230a and the second soldering portion 230b and the first terminal 220a' and the second terminal 220b', so that the light emitting element chip 20 is driven to emit light.

[0108] As described above, the flip-chip and vertical light-emitting element chips 20 are adhered to the substrate by solder or an insulating adhesive layer, respectively, and as the substrate bends or flows, there is a possibility that the light-emitting element chip 20 will be detached from the substrate. However, due to the provision of the auxiliary pattern 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the hardness of the setting area of ​​the light-emitting element chip 20 is increased, thereby preventing or reducing the detachment of the light-emitting element chip 20. In particular, in the case of the vertical light-emitting element chip 20, the contact electrode and the connection electrode are contacted by a wire, and in the case of the wire, there is a problem that the circuit is weaker than the flip chip. However, in this case, the light-emitting element chip 20 can also be stably combined with the substrate by the auxiliary pattern 30.

[0109] In the above-mentioned embodiments, the vertical type and the flip-chip type light emitting element chip 20 are described separately, but the two embodiments can be combined or interchanged with each other in terms of materials or functions of other components other than the structural differences. In addition, the light emitting element chip 20 can also have a structure other than the structure shown in the figure, and can be transformed into various forms within the scope of the concept of the present invention.

[0110] In the light emitting element filament according to an embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting element chips 20 can be arranged in various forms, and the connection relationship with the connection wiring 50 can also be modified in various forms.

[0111] Figures 4a to 4c FIG. 1 is a plan view showing light emitting element chips arranged in a row on a substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0112] Reference Figure 4a In the light emitting element filament according to an embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting element chips 20 can be provided in a plurality and can be arranged in a row on the substrate. The two ends of the substrate (i.e., the first end 13a and the second end 13b) are respectively provided with a first electrode pad 51a and a second electrode pad 51b, and the connection wiring 53 respectively connects the first electrode pad 51a of the first end 13a and the light emitting element chip 20, the light emitting element chip 20 and the light emitting element chip 20, and the light emitting element chip 20 and the second electrode pad 51b of the second end 13b. With this structure, the light emitting element chips 20 can be connected in series through the connection wiring 53.

[0113] Here, although not shown, the first electrode pad 51a is connected to one of the two contact electrodes of the first adjacent light-emitting element chip 20, for example, the first contact electrode, through the connecting wiring 53. The second contact electrode of the light-emitting element is connected to the first contact electrode of the light-emitting element adjacent thereto through the connecting wiring 53. Each light-emitting element chip 20 is connected in series in this manner, and the second contact electrode of the outermost light-emitting element chip 20 is connected to the second electrode pad 51b. Positive and negative power supplies are applied to the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b, respectively, so that each light-emitting element chip 20 connected to the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b can be turned on.

[0114] Reference Figure 4b , the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b may not be disposed at the first end 13a and the second end 13b respectively. The first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b may be disposed only at one side of the first end 13a and the second end 13b. In this embodiment, the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are disposed only at the first end 13a.

[0115] The structure for applying power may be different when the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are respectively disposed at the first end 13a and the second end 13b and when the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are only disposed at one of the first end 13a and the second end 13b. The arrangement of such electrode pads may be set in consideration of the overall shape of the filament of the light-emitting element, the connection relationship with other components (especially, whether an electrical connection relationship such as a connector or additional wiring is required), etc.

[0116] Reference Figure 4c The first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b may be as follows Figure 4a The connection wiring 53 is also provided at the first end portion 13a and the second end portion 13b. However, the present embodiment may have a feature that the connection wiring 53 is bent at least once along the width direction of the substrate.

[0117] In the case of a light emitting element filament, it is generally bent in a protruding or recessed manner in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the substrate, and accordingly, tensile stress may be applied in the longitudinal direction of the connection wiring 53, thereby increasing the possibility of wire breakage. In addition, the tensile stress applied in the longitudinal direction affects the wire or the soldering portion, and may cause the light emitting element chip 20 to detach.

[0118] In this embodiment, the connection wiring 53 can be bent in a direction other than the length direction (ie, the width direction) of the substrate, thereby reducing stress applied to the connection wiring 53. In this embodiment, bending is shown twice, but the number of bending is not limited thereto, and more bending times are possible.

[0119] Furthermore, in order to reduce tensile stress applied to the connection wiring 53, the soldering portion and / or the wire, the connection wiring 53 may be formed in a direction oblique to the length direction or the width direction. Furthermore, the connection wiring 53 may have a curved shape.

[0120] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the detachment of the light emitting element chip 20 and the disconnection of the connection wiring 53 are minimized by the deformation of the connection wiring 53 .

[0121] In the light emitting element filament according to an embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting element chips 20 can be arranged to form a plurality of rows or columns in consideration of the amount of light to be emitted and the uniformity of the light to be emitted. In other words, the light emitting element chips 20 can be arranged according to rows and columns, or according to columns or rows.

[0122] Figure 5a as well as Figure 5b FIG. 1 is a plan view showing that the light emitting element chips 20 are arranged in two rows on a substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0123] Reference Figure 5a as well as Figure 5b The light emitting element chips 20 may be provided in a plurality and may be arranged along various numbers of columns (e.g., 2, 3 or more columns). The light emitting element chips 20 arranged along each column may be electrically connected in various forms and may be connected in series as shown in the figure.

[0124] The connection wiring 53 connecting the light emitting element chips 20 may be as follows: Figure 5a The straight line shape in can also be Figure 5b The curved shape.

[0125] In this embodiment, when the light-emitting element chips 20 are arranged in a plurality of columns along the length direction of the substrate, the light-emitting element chips 20 may be arranged in the width direction (row direction) so as not to overlap each other. That is, the light-emitting element chips 20 arranged in adjacent columns may not be arranged on the same line along the width direction, and may be arranged in a zigzag shape along the length direction. In this way, the light-emitting element chips 20 may be arranged in such a way that the light-emitting element chips 20 emit light uniformly to a wider area as much as possible.

[0126] Although not shown separately, it is obvious that a plurality of light emitting element chips may be arranged at random positions.

[0127] Although the light emitting element chips 20 are electrically connected in series in the above-mentioned embodiment, an embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and the light emitting element chips 20 may also be electrically connected in parallel.

[0128] Figures 6a to 6c1 is a plan view showing light emitting element chips 20 connected in parallel on a substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0129] Reference Figure 6a In the light-emitting element filament according to an embodiment of the present invention, the light-emitting element chip 20 can be provided in a plurality and arranged in a row on the substrate. The two ends of the substrate (i.e., the first end 13a and the second end 13b) are provided with a first electrode pad 51a and a second electrode pad 51b, respectively, and the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are connected to the first connection wiring 53a and the second connection wiring 53b, respectively. The first connection wiring 53a connects the first electrode pad 51a of the first end 13a to one of the first contact electrode and the second contact electrode of the light-emitting element chip 20, and the second connection wiring 53b connects the second electrode pad 51b of the second end 13b to the remaining one of the first contact electrode and the second contact electrode of the light-emitting element chip 20. Based on this, the light-emitting element chips 20 can be connected in parallel through the connection wiring 53. For example, the first electrode pad 51a is respectively connected to the first contact electrode of the light-emitting element chip 20, and the second electrode pad 51b is respectively connected to the second contact electrode of the light-emitting element chip 20. Positive and negative power sources are applied to the first electrode pad 51 a and the second electrode pad 51 b , respectively, so that each light emitting element chip 20 connected to the first electrode pad 51 a and the second electrode pad 51 b can be turned on.

[0130] Reference Figure 6b , the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b may not be disposed at the first end portion 13a and the second end portion 13b, respectively. The first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b may be disposed only at one side of the first end portion 13a and the second end portion 13b, and the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are disclosed in this embodiment as being disposed only at the first end portion 13a.

[0131] Reference Figure 6c The first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b can be connected to Figure 4a The light emitting element chips 20 are arranged in a zigzag pattern. In this case, the light emitting element chips 20 can emit light uniformly to a wider area as much as possible.

[0132] As described above, when a plurality of light-emitting element chips 20 are provided, the light-emitting element chips 20 according to one embodiment of the present invention can be arranged in various forms and can be electrically connected in various forms. Although the above-mentioned embodiment illustrates the light-emitting element chips 20 connected in series and in parallel, one embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and can also be provided in the form of a combination of series and parallel connection. Depending on the series connection and the parallel connection or the form of a combination thereof, the amount of current consumed or the voltage applied can be set differently, and whether or not such a combination of electrical connection relationships is provided can be set in consideration of the application range, light quantity, and power consumption of the light-emitting element filament.

[0133] The light-emitting element chip 20 according to an embodiment of the present invention has the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b exposed to the outside as described above, and can be electrically connected in a form where the first end portion 13a and the second end portion 13b provided with the exposed first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b are in contact with the connection wiring 53. However, it is also possible to directly adhere to the exposed first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b using an adhesive component 61 (for example, a polar adhesive, solder).

[0134] Figure 7 2 is a cross-sectional view of a filament of a light emitting element according to an embodiment of the present invention, which shows that the additional wiring 61 is directly attached to the first electrode pad 51a and the second electrode pad 51b. Figure 7 The first electrode pad 51a of the first end portion 13a and the second electrode pad 51b of the second end portion 13b are provided with an adhesive component 61, and are connected to the additional wiring 60 via the conductive adhesive component 61. The additional wiring 61 can have various shapes such as a wire shape or a plate shape. According to this embodiment, it is easy to electrically connect with other components through the additional wiring 60.

[0135] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting element filament can be used in a variety of devices as a light source. The light emitting element filament is used in, for example, an interior lighting device or a light source of a vehicle (for example, a headlight, a taillight, a fog light, an interior light, etc.), so that it can be used in a variety of forms. In particular, the light emitting element filament is used in a bulb-type light source having the same form as an existing incandescent lamp, so that it can emit light as a filament inside it. However, it is obvious that in an embodiment of the present invention, as long as a column or line-shaped light source is required, the light emitting element filament can also be used in a variety of devices other than the above-mentioned devices. In the following embodiments, the embodiment in which the light emitting element filament is applied to a bulb-type light source is first described as an example.

[0136] Figures 8a to 8d 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a bulb-type light source using a filament of a light-emitting element according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0137] Reference Figures 8a to 8d According to an embodiment of the present invention, a bulb-type light source includes: a sphere 320 having an opening on one side and made of a transparent material that allows light to pass through; a light-emitting element filament 100 disposed in the sphere 320; a power substrate 330 connected to one end of the light-emitting element filament 100; and a socket 340 combined with the opening of the sphere 320 and the power substrate 330.

[0138] The sphere 320 has a spherical shape when viewed as a whole, and has an opening on one side for inserting the light emitting element filament 100. The sphere 320 may have a completely or incomplete spherical shape except for the opening portion, but is not limited thereto, and may have various shapes such as an elliptical shape or a shape in which a portion protrudes. The opening may vary according to the shape of the sphere 320, and may be configured in a circular or elliptical shape.

[0139] The sphere 320 is made of a transparent material so that the light emitted from the light emitting element filament 100 can pass through. Here, "transparent" means that at least a part of the light emitted from the light emitting element filament 100 in the sphere 320 is passed through, including only transmitting light of a specific wavelength or being semi-transparent. For this purpose, the sphere 320 can be made of transparent or semi-transparent glass so that at least a part of the light can pass through. However, the material of the sphere 320 is not limited thereto, and can be made of a material such as plastic.

[0140] The light emitting element filament 100 is a filament-shaped component on which a light emitting element chip is mounted, and includes a substrate and a light emitting element chip provided on the substrate.

[0141] The light emitting device filament 100 emits light. The light emitted from the light emitting device filament 100 passes through the sphere 320 made of a transparent material and propagates toward the outside of the sphere 320 .

[0142] The light emitting device filament 100 is provided in a form inserted into the interior of the sphere 320 through the opening of the sphere 320. The light emitting device filament 100 is provided in a long extended shape, and may be provided in a shape bent or folded in the longitudinal direction.

[0143] The light emitting element filament 100 may be provided in one or more numbers. However, the number of the light emitting element filament 100 is not limited thereto, and may be provided in a larger number than the above number according to the size or brightness of the light bulb type light source.

[0144] The socket 340 is fastened to the power substrate 330 and is provided with a fastening member so that it can be installed in an external device (e.g., a power socket). The socket 340 may include a lamp cap lock wire 341 fastened to the opening of the glass and a lamp cap 343 protruding in the downward direction, and the lamp cap wire 341 and the lamp cap 343 may be made of a conductive material and insulated from each other. In this case, the lamp cap wire 341 and the lamp cap 343 are respectively connected to the electrode pads of the light-emitting element filament 100, and power can be applied to the light-emitting element filament 100 through the lamp cap wire 341 and the lamp cap 343. However, if the lamp cap wire 341 and the lamp cap 343 are manufactured similar to the old-style light bulbs simply for aesthetic appearance, they do not necessarily need to be made of a conductive material. In this case, in addition to the lamp cap wire and the lamp cap, a power application part made of a conductive material other than a connector may be separately provided.

[0145] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the direction in which the socket 340 is mounted on the sphere 320 is assumed to be the central axis, the light emitting element filament 10 is fastened to the socket 340 and the power substrate 330 in a state extending along the central axis when generally observed. The light emitting element filament 100 may be bent, and may have a shape in which a portion is bent away from the central axis. That is, as shown in the figure, the light emitting element filament may be arranged at a position relatively close to the central axis in one area, and may be arranged at a position relatively far from the central axis in another area.

[0146] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the light-emitting element filament 100 is provided in plurality, when observed from the upper part perpendicular to the central axis, the light-emitting element filament 100 can be arranged radially with the central axis as the reference, or can be provided in a straight line perpendicular to the central axis, or can be provided in a shape twisted multiple times.

[0147] The filament of the light-emitting element can be bent in multiple directions, so that the bulb-type light source according to an embodiment of the present invention can make the emitted light emit at a wider angle based on the central axis. That is, even in the case where the light-emitting element chip itself has a specific direction angle, the flexibility of the substrate can be used to bend the substrate to a preset degree, and accordingly, the light emitted from the light-emitting element can be propagated at multiple angles. For example, a plurality of light-emitting element chips with preset direction angles based on the central axis are arranged, so that the light can be emitted 360 degrees in a direction perpendicular to the central axis (that is, 360 degrees in the horizontal direction). Accordingly, when using a bulb-type light source according to an embodiment of the present invention, dark spots at specific angles and specific positions are minimized.

[0148] Although the above description is made with reference to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that any technician familiar with the relevant technical field, or a person with general knowledge in the relevant technical field, can make various modifications and changes to the present invention without departing from the scope of the concept and technical field of the present invention recorded in the claims.

[0149] Therefore, the technical scope of the present invention should be determined only by the scope of the claims, and should not be limited by the contents described in the detailed description of the specification.
