Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the detection technology in the field of LED semiconductor, and in particular to a method for obtaining the highest temperature of LED fluorescent glue by structural difference method. BACKGROUND
[0002] LED light-emitting diode is widely used in the field of lighting signals of aerospace products due to its high reliability, high luminous efficiency and low power consumption. The traditional LED can only produce monochromatic light and cannot directly obtain white light. In order to obtain white LED, yellow fluorescent glue needs to be coated on the blue LED chip to convert the blue light emitted by the chip into yellow light, and then the converted yellow light and the transmitted blue light of the chip are mixed to finally produce mixed white light.
[0003] In the thermal characterization of traditional LED devices, only the chip junction temperature is often concerned, and the test of the temperature of the fluorescent glue is less. However, in the process of converting the light emitted by the chip by the fluorescent glue, due to factors such as non-radiative recombination and absorption of light energy by the fluorescent glue, the emitted light will be lost and converted into heat, resulting in local heating of the fluorescent glue and making it another heat source inside the LED device.
[0004] Although the heat generated by the fluorescent glue is usually less than that generated by the chip PN junction, compared with the high-efficiency one-dimensional heat dissipation path of the chip PN junction-solder-substrate, the thermal conductivity of the fluorescent glue is poor, which will cause the heat generated by the fluorescent glue to quickly accumulate inside it. The accumulated heat will reduce the LED luminous efficiency and aggravate the loss of emitted light, and ultimately lead to local high temperature of the fluorescent glue. Therefore, the highest temperature inside the fluorescent glue may be higher than the temperature of the chip PN junction.
[0005] During the long-term aging and service of the LED, the local high temperature of the fluorescent glue not only reduces the quantum conversion efficiency of the fluorescent glue, affects the service life and overall luminous efficiency of the LED device, but also causes internal stress between the fluorescent glue and the chip, resulting in delamination and fracture of the LED and other failure phenomena. In summary, in addition to the chip junction temperature, the temperature of the fluorescent glue is also one of the important parameters for characterizing the heat dissipation performance of the LED device. However, the fluorescent glue is mainly composed of fluorescent powder and silicone glue mixed together, and the fluorescent powder particles are dispersed in the silicone glue matrix, so it is difficult to directly and accurately test the temperature of the fluorescent glue by traditional methods.
[0006] The thermocouple method mainly characterizes the surface temperature of the fluorescent glue by contacting the fluorescent glue, but even if the fluorescent glue covering the LED chip is destroyed and a micro thermocouple is used to test the temperature inside the fluorescent glue, the temperature field inside the fluorescent glue will be destroyed, and there will be a significant difference between the tested temperature and the internal temperature of the undamaged fluorescent glue.
[0007] The infrared testing method can obtain the surface temperature of the fluorescent glue by a non-contact method, but the emissivity of the fluorescent glue will significantly affect the infrared temperature measurement result, and the infrared light generated by the high temperature point in the fluorescent glue will also be lost when it transmits through the fluorescent glue, so there is also a difference between the temperature measured by the infrared method and the internal temperature of the fluorescent glue.
[0008] The traditional thermal resistance method can only test the chip junction temperature and cannot obtain the internal temperature of the fluorescent glue.
[0009] In summary, the current temperature measurement method cannot accurately obtain the maximum temperature of the fluorescent glue, and cannot evaluate the relationship between the temperature of the fluorescent glue and the chip junction temperature, so it is of great significance to develop a new method to characterize the maximum temperature of the fluorescent glue.

[0059] Figure 9 Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of testing the light radiation power of LED device II and LED device III by the integrating sphere in the preferred embodiment of the present application; as Figure 9A standard LED 133 with known optical radiation power is fixed at the bottom inside the integrating sphere 136, and the electrode leads of the standard LED 133 are connected to the IH heating current 131 and the VF voltage sensor 132 of the T3ster device, respectively. The standard LED 133 is driven by different IH heating currents (0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 A), and the voltage value across the standard LED 133 is tested by the VF voltage sensor 132, respectively, to obtain the input power P in = IH * VF of the standard LED 133. The light generated by the standard LED 133 is diffusely reflected multiple times on the inner wall of the integrating sphere 136, and the light intensity on the entire inner wall is uniformly distributed, and finally all received by the detector 135. The baffle 134 is to avoid the light generated by the standard LED chip directly irradiating the detector 135, to prevent affecting the test accuracy. The optical radiation power received by the detector 135 is compared with the known optical radiation power of the standard LED 133, to calibrate the parameters of the integrating sphere detector.

Formula (27): P in = IH * VF. The optical radiation power P fg 2 and P fg 3 of LED device II and LED device III are tested by the calibrated detector 135, respectively. Since the circuit structures of the two devices are the same, the input power P in and the chip heating power P chip of LED device II and LED device III are the same. In LED device II, the light generated by the LED chip is almost not absorbed by the silica gel, and the input power P in is partly used for the chip heating power P chip and partly used for the optical radiation power P fg 2 received by the detector 135 in the integrating sphere 136, so formula (28) is P in = P chip + P fg 2 . In LED device III, the light generated by the LED chip is absorbed by the fluorescent gel to increase the temperature of the fluorescent gel, and the input power P in is not only used for the chip heating power P chip and the optical radiation power P fg 3 received by the detector 135 in the integrating sphere 136, but also used for the heating power P yg of the fluorescent gel itself, so formula (29) is P in = Pchip +P fg 3 +P yg By deduction, we can obtain the chip heating power P of LED device III under the action of 0.2A current. chip Formula (30): P chip =P in -P fg 2 , and the heating power of fluorescent glue P yg Formula (31): P yg =P fg 2 -P fg 3 .
[0061] The LED device II and LED device III are driven by IH heating currents 131 of 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 A, respectively. The above test steps are repeated to obtain the chip heating power P of LED device III under different currents. chip And the heating power of fluorescent glue P yg .

The positive electrode lead 115 and the negative electrode lead 116 of the LED were connected to the VF voltage sensor 132, the IM test current 142, and the IH heating current 131, respectively. Since the VF voltage sensor 132, the IM test current 142, and the IH heating current 131 all have the same direction, they all display a positive value (+). Using the T3ster device, only the 5mA IM test current 142 was applied to LED device III, without the IH heating current 131. The VF voltage sensor 132 was used to monitor the PN junction voltage drop across the LED device III in real time.

Record the PN junction voltage drop-to-junction temperature curve of LED device III in real time to determine its temperature-sensitive parameter, the K coefficient. Since LED devices I, II, and III share the same circuit structure, their temperature-sensitive parameter, the K coefficient, is the same, and the transient thermal resistance test circuit connection method is also the same. After the test, clean the oil from the surface of LED device III.

[0078] According to P chip of step S3 and the above P ja , the heat generation power P yg-j of the LED device III fluorescent gel maximum temperature point to the chip PN junction is obtained, according to formula (9): P yg-j =P ja -P chip .
[0079] According to P yg of step S3 and the above P yg-j , the heat generation power P yg-a of the LED device III fluorescent gel maximum temperature point to the environment is obtained, according to formula (8): P yg-a =P yg -P yg-j .
[0080] Then, the thermal resistance R yg-a of the LED device III fluorescent gel maximum temperature point to the environment and the fluorescent gel maximum temperature T yg are obtained, and the LED device III fluorescent gel maximum temperature curve T yg(cal) obtained by the structure difference method is drawn.
[0081] According to P chip and P yg of step S3, R ja3 of step S4, the above R gj , P yg-j , the thermal resistance R yg-a of the LED device III fluorescent gel maximum temperature point to the environment is obtained, formula (25):

[0083] Changing the heating driving current (0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8A), the maximum temperature curve T of the LED device III fluorescent glue obtained by the structural difference method under different currents was plotted. yg(cal) .
[0084] In order to verify the method of the present invention, the following experiments were also carried out:
[0085] Experiment 2
[0086] Comparative structural difference method to obtain the maximum temperature curve T of LED device III fluorescent glue yg(cal) LED device III fluorescent glue surface temperature curve T tested by thermocouple yg(test) , verifying the accuracy of the structural difference method.
[0087] Figure 13 The surface temperature T of the fluorescent glue of LED device III is measured by thermocouple in the preferred embodiment of the present invention. yg(test) Schematic diagram of . Figure 13 , connect the heating current IH 131 to the positive electrode 115 and the negative electrode 116 of the LED device III, and directly contact the thermocouple 182 with the surface of the fluorescent glue 119 of the LED device III. Drive the LED device III with different heating currents IH 131, use the thermocouple instrument panel 183 to measure the surface temperature of the fluorescent glue 119 of the LED device III, and draw the surface temperature curve T of the fluorescent glue of the LED device III under different currents tested by the thermocouple. yg(test) .
[0088] Figure 14 The maximum temperature curve T of the fluorescent glue of LED device III obtained by the structural difference method in the preferred embodiment of the present invention is yg(cal) And thermocouple test LED device III fluorescent glue surface temperature curve T yg(test) Overlay graph. Figure 14 , the maximum temperature curve T of the LED device III fluorescent glue obtained by the above structural difference method yg(cal) Surface temperature curve T of LED device III fluorescent glue tested by 185 and thermocouple yg(test) 186 superposition. Figure 14 In the initial stage, the maximum temperature curve T of the LED device III fluorescent glue obtained by the structural difference method yg(cal) Surface temperature curve T of LED device III fluorescent glue tested by 185 and thermocoupleyg(test) 186 Good overlap. When raised to a certain critical temperature, the two curves begin to separate, and the LED device III phosphor glue highest temperature curve T yg(cal) 185 Slightly higher than the LED device III phosphor glue surface temperature curve T yg(test) 186 With the temperature rising, the LED device III phosphor glue highest temperature curve T yg(cal) 185 significantly higher than the LED device III phosphor glue surface temperature curve T yg(test) 186. Since the thermocouple tests the surface temperature of the phosphor glue in direct contact with the external environment, the test temperature point is not the highest temperature point of the phosphor glue. When the heating current is low, the chip light radiation power is not large, and the phosphor glue absorbs less light, and the heat is not obvious, and the temperature difference between the highest temperature of the phosphor glue and the surface temperature is not large. When the heating current is significantly increased, the light generated by the chip is absorbed by the phosphor glue and gathered in the phosphor glue, so that the temperature difference between the highest temperature of the phosphor glue and the surface temperature is significantly increased. Figure 14 The results effectively show that when the LED device III works in a large current state, the traditional thermocouple method cannot accurately test the highest temperature of the LED device III phosphor glue, and the structural difference method of the present application can accurately obtain the highest temperature of the LED device III phosphor glue, avoiding the significant failure of the phosphor glue due to high temperature. For example Figure 14 , according to the limit working temperature T yg-max 187 of the highest temperature of the phosphor glue, in combination with the LED device III phosphor glue highest temperature curve T yg(cal) 185 obtained by the structural difference method, the critical maximum working current I max 188 of the LED device III is determined.

[0090] First, the present application effectively obtains the highest temperature of the phosphor glue coated on the surface of the chip of the LED device III according to the same and different points of the structures of the LED device I, the LED device II and the LED device III, in combination with the light radiation power, the chip junction temperature and the overall thermal resistance of the chip PN junction-environment, solves the deficiency that the traditional method cannot test the highest temperature of the phosphor glue on the surface of the LED chip, and avoids the influence of the too high temperature of the phosphor glue on the LED light-emitting efficiency and the packaging reliability.
[0091] Secondly, the application compares the LED device III chip junction temperature obtained by the structure difference method under different currents with the LED device III chip junction temperature tested by the transient thermal resistance method, verifies the accuracy and repeatability of the structure difference method, and compares the LED device III phosphor gel maximum temperature obtained by the structure difference method under different currents with the LED device III phosphor gel surface temperature tested by the thermocouple, verifies the fact that the internal temperature of the phosphor gel is significantly higher than the surface temperature of the phosphor gel under a large current, and the test method of the application can more accurately reflect the internal temperature of the phosphor gel.
[0092] Thirdly, for the LED to-be-tested device with different packaging structures and packaging materials, as long as the to-be-tested device meets the model of the LED device III and can test the light radiation power, chip junction temperature and transient thermal resistance curve, the phosphor gel maximum temperature of the to-be-tested device can be obtained by designing the model of the LED device I and the LED device II. For the LED to-be-tested device with the same packaging structure and packaging material, as long as the light radiation power, chip junction temperature and transient thermal resistance curve are tested, the phosphor gel maximum temperature can be quickly obtained according to the structure difference method of the application.
[0093] Fourthly, the LED phosphor gel maximum temperature obtained by the structure difference method of the application can be compared with the chip junction temperature tested by the transient thermal resistance method, the phosphor gel surface temperature tested by the thermocouple method and the environmental temperature, which is beneficial to the comprehensive analysis of the temperature distribution of the LED device structure, the determination of the heat dissipation weak point of the LED, the provision of reference for improving the LED packaging structure and packaging material, and the provision of data support for the LED thermal simulation.
