Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of light source technology, and more specifically, to an LED light-emitting unit, an LED light source, and an LED light source system. Background Technology

[0002] Planar LED chips are widely used in various lighting products. Their superior energy efficiency offers significant advantages over traditional bulbs and filaments. Furthermore, the planar shape of the LED chip's light-emitting area provides excellent compatibility with transmission optics systems. In the lighting industry, a common approach is to coat a blue LED chip with a yellow phosphor layer to convert some of the blue light wavelength to yellow light, which is then mixed to emit white light. This is currently the mainstream light source solution. To achieve the highest possible light collection efficiency, a collimating light collection system is typically used to obtain the illumination spot. Theoretically, the light distribution of the illumination spot is relatively consistent with the luminous intensity of the chip itself, exhibiting a relatively uniform surface distribution. For example, if the LED chip's light-emitting area is circular, the illumination spot will also be circular and relatively uniform. However, since collimation and light-gathering systems typically use lenses for light collection, the luminous intensity at the edges of the illumination spot is weaker than that in the central area. This is especially true for high-power LED light source systems with a large number of LED chips, where the luminous intensity in the central area of ​​the spot is higher than that at the edges. This is why double compound-eye lenses are often used for light homogenization in high-power stage lighting modules. However, after homogenization by the compound-eye lens array, the luminous intensity at the center of the spot is significantly reduced. Furthermore, existing LED chip imaging spot designs cannot achieve spot uniformity adjustment while maintaining relatively consistent power and light output, resulting in a limited functionality.

[0046] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this invention. To better illustrate the following embodiments, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings.

[0047] Example 1

[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment discloses an LED light-emitting unit 100, including a light-emitting region 10 and an electrode group 20. The light-emitting region 10 includes at least a first light-emitting region 11 and a second light-emitting region 12 generally located around the first light-emitting region 11. The first light-emitting region 11 and the second light-emitting region 12 belong to the same LED chip. The light-emitting surface of the light-emitting region is the light-emitting surface. The electrode group 20 includes at least a first electrode group and a second electrode group. Both the first electrode group and the second electrode group 22 include a positive electrode 201 and a negative electrode 202. The positive electrode 201 and the negative electrode 202 are both arranged around the light-emitting surface. The first electrode group and the second electrode group are located on the upper surface of the LED light-emitting unit. The positive and negative electrodes of the first electrode group and the second electrode group are independent of each other. The driving current of the first electrode group is a first driving current, and the driving current of the second electrode group is a second driving current. The first light-emitting region 11 and the second light-emitting region 20 are independently driven and controlled by the first driving current and the second driving current, respectively.

[0049] In this embodiment, the center of the LED light-emitting unit 100 is a light-emitting region 10. The light-emitting region 10 includes at least a first light-emitting region 11 and a second light-emitting region 12 generally located around the first light-emitting region 11. The first light-emitting region 11 and the second light-emitting region 12 are independently driven and controlled by the driving currents of the first electrode group and the second electrode group 22, respectively. By controlling different light-emitting regions with different driving currents, the uniformity of the light spot can be adjusted. Furthermore, since the first and second light-emitting regions belong to the same LED chip, the overall driving current can be reduced, which is more conducive to improving driving efficiency. In addition, since the light spot formed by the LED chip after passing through the lens is centrally symmetrical, the inner and outer partitioning method is more conducive to adjusting the uniformity of the light spot. The positive electrode 201 and the negative electrode 202 of the electrode group are both arranged around the light-emitting surface, and the first electrode group and the second electrode group are located on the upper surface of the LED light-emitting unit, which facilitates thermoelectric separation.

[0050] In other embodiments, the positive electrode 201 and the negative electrode 202 may also be disposed on the side of the light-emitting surface.

[0051] Specifically, the bottom of the LED light-emitting unit 100 is a substrate 14, and the first light-emitting area 11 and the second light-emitting area 12 share the same substrate 14 for encapsulation and heat dissipation. More specifically, the LED chip is a horizontally structured, upright LED chip. The LED light-emitting unit 100 is a horizontally structured, upright LED chip with different light-emitting areas sharing the same substrate 14, which facilitates the separation of different light-emitting areas from each other and allows for the separate control of different light-emitting areas through the surface electrode group.

[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first light-emitting area 11 includes, from top to bottom, a first semiconductor layer 111, a first active layer 112, a second semiconductor layer 113, an insulating layer 13, and a substrate 14, and also includes a first conductive layer 114 and a second conductive layer 115. The first semiconductor layer 111 is in ohmic contact with the first conductive layer 114, and the second semiconductor layer 113 is in ohmic contact with the second conductive layer 115. The first conductive layer 114 and the second conductive layer 115 are respectively connected to the two electrodes of the first electrode group.

[0053] The second light-emitting region 12 includes, from top to bottom, a third semiconductor layer 121, a second active layer 122, a fourth semiconductor layer 123, an insulating layer 13, and a substrate 14. It also includes a third conductive layer 124 and a fourth conductive layer 125. The third semiconductor layer 121 and the third conductive layer 124 are in ohmic contact, and the fourth semiconductor layer 123 and the fourth conductive layer 125 are in ohmic contact. The third conductive layer 124 and the fourth conductive layer 125 are respectively connected to the two electrodes of the second electrode group 22.

[0054] More specifically, the first conductive layer 114, the second conductive layer 115, the third conductive layer 124, and the fourth conductive layer 125 are misaligned within the internal spatial structure of the LED light-emitting unit and are mutually insulated. This ensures that the conductive layers do not interfere with each other, facilitating independent control of different zones.

[0055] Further, in this embodiment, the first semiconductor layer 111 and the third semiconductor layer 121 are located on the same layer, the second semiconductor layer 113 and the fourth semiconductor layer 123 are located on the same layer, and the first active layer 112 and the second active layer 122 are located on the same layer. More specifically, in this embodiment, the first semiconductor layer 111 and the third semiconductor layer 121 are identical, the second semiconductor layer 113 and the fourth semiconductor layer 123 are identical, the first active layer 112 and the second active layer 122 are identical, and the second semiconductor layer 113 and the fourth semiconductor layer 123 are insulated from each other. More specifically, the first semiconductor layer 111 and the third semiconductor layer 121 are separated by an insulating layer 13 in the horizontal direction, the second semiconductor layer 113 and the fourth semiconductor layer 123 are separated by an insulating layer 13 in the horizontal direction, and the first active layer 112 and the second active layer 122 are separated by an insulating layer 13 in the horizontal direction.

[0056] Furthermore, the area ratio of the first light-emitting area to the second light-emitting area is 1:(0.5~3). More specifically, in this embodiment, the area ratio of the first light-emitting area to the second light-emitting area is 1:(0.9~1.1). In other embodiments, other area ratios may also be used.

[0057] In other embodiments, the LED chip may further include a third light-emitting region located between the first light-emitting region and the second light-emitting region, wherein the area ratio of the first light-emitting region, the second light-emitting region and the third light-emitting region is 1:(0.5~3):(0.5~3).

[0058] In other implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the LED chip may also include, from the inside out, a first light-emitting area 11, a third light-emitting area 15, a fourth light-emitting area 16, and a second light-emitting area 12.

[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the first light-emitting area 11 is a circular light-emitting area, and the second light-emitting area 12 is an annular light-emitting area. That is, the light-emitting area is a circular light-emitting area. More specifically, in this embodiment, the diameter of the light-emitting area is 1-3 mm.

[0060] In other implementations, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first light-emitting area 11 can also be a rectangular light-emitting area, and the second light-emitting area 12 can be a U-shaped light-emitting area. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the first light-emitting area can be a circular light-emitting area, and the second light-emitting area can be an irregular light-emitting area surrounding the circular light-emitting area, such as... Figure 7 As shown. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the first luminous area can be a polygonal luminous area, and the second luminous area can be an irregular luminous area surrounding the polygonal luminous area. These will not be listed individually here; in practical applications, matching inner and outer partitioning methods can be designed based on actual needs.

[0061] It is worth mentioning that the light-emitting area of ​​this utility model includes at least a first light-emitting area located in the central area of ​​the LED light-emitting unit and a second light-emitting area generally located around the first light-emitting area. This means that visually, the second light-emitting area appears to surround the first light-emitting area, but it is not strictly required that the second light-emitting area completely encloses the first light-emitting area. Figure 8 , Figure 9 The partitioning methods shown all belong to the second luminous area 12, which is generally located outside the first luminous area 11. These will not be listed one by one in this article.

[0062] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the gap between the first light-emitting area 11 and the second light-emitting area 12 is 0.01–0.1 mm. More specifically, the gap between the first light-emitting area 11 and the second light-emitting area 12 is 0.05–0.1 mm. The smaller the gap between the first light-emitting area 11 and the second light-emitting area 12, the better the connection of the light spots when the first light-emitting area 11 and the second light-emitting area 12 are lit simultaneously, and the visual effect of the light spots is seamless.

[0063] Example 2

[0064] like Figure 10As shown, this embodiment discloses an LED light source, including a ceramic substrate 31 with a circuit layer on its upper and lower surfaces and an LED light-emitting unit 100 as described in Embodiment 1. The circuit layer includes a first circuit region 321, a second circuit region 322, a third circuit region 323, a fourth circuit region 324, and a fifth circuit region 325 arranged at intervals in the same horizontal direction. The fifth circuit region 325 is located in the middle region of the circuit layer. The ceramic substrate 31 is provided with conductive holes 33 at positions corresponding to the first circuit region 321, the second circuit region 322, the third circuit region 323, and the fourth circuit region 324. The circuit layer 1 on the upper and lower surfaces of the ceramic substrate 31 is electrically connected through the conductive holes 33. The LED light-emitting unit 100 is soldered or bonded to the fifth circuit region 325.

[0065] Furthermore, a metal layer (not shown in the figure) is also provided on the surface of the first circuit layer on the upper surface of the ceramic substrate 31. The electrode group is connected to the first circuit layer via gold wires and the metal layer. More specifically, the first electrode group is connected to the second circuit region 322 and the fourth circuit region 324 via gold wires and the metal layer, and the second electrode group is connected to the first circuit region 321 and the third circuit region 323 via gold wires and the metal layer. In this embodiment, the specific relative positions of the first circuit region 321, the second circuit region 322, the third circuit region 323, and the fourth circuit region 324 are not particularly required, as long as two of the circuit regions correspond to one electrode group. The metal layer can be a gold layer or a silver layer.

[0066] The above-mentioned circuit packaging method of ceramic substrate 31 with first circuit layer realizes the separate control of different light-emitting areas of LED light-emitting unit 100. The substrate 14 of LED light-emitting unit 100 directly conducts heat through the fifth circuit area 325 and ceramic substrate 31, realizing the thermoelectric separation packaging of the light-emitting area.

The second circuit layer is disposed on the outside of the protrusions. The second circuit layer includes a sixth circuit region 421, a seventh circuit region 422, an eighth circuit region 423, and a ninth circuit region 424, which are spaced apart from each other in the horizontal direction and / or insulated in the vertical direction, and each of their surfaces is provided with a metal layer. The electrode group is connected to the second circuit layer through gold wires and the metal layer. More specifically, the first electrode group is connected to the seventh circuit region 422 and the eighth circuit region 423 through gold wires and the metal layer, and the second electrode group is connected to the sixth circuit region 421 and the ninth circuit region 424 through gold wires and the metal layer. In this embodiment, the specific relative positions of the sixth circuit region 421, the seventh circuit region 422, the eighth circuit region 423, and the ninth circuit region 424 are not particularly required, as long as two of the circuit regions correspond to one electrode group.

[0069] The above-mentioned copper substrate 41 circuit packaging method realizes the separate control of different light-emitting areas of the LED light-emitting unit 100. The substrate 14 of the LED light-emitting unit 100 directly conducts heat through the protrusion of the copper substrate 41, realizing the thermoelectric separation packaging of the light-emitting area.

[0071] This embodiment discloses an LED light source system 300, including a light source substrate 50, LED light emitters arranged in an array on the light source substrate 50, a collimating lens assembly 60 and a light emitting lens 70 arranged in the light emission direction of the LED light emitters, wherein at least 50% of the LED light emitters are LED light emission units 100 as described in Embodiment 1.

[0072] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the light source substrate 50 is a copper substrate with a second circuit layer on its surface. Similar to Embodiment 3, the copper substrate has a boss-type structure with several protrusions. The LED chip is soldered or bonded to the protrusions. The structure of the circuit layer is similar to the second circuit layer in Embodiment 3, and will not be described again here.

[0073] Furthermore, such as Figure 12 As shown, the LED light source is an LED light-emitting unit, that is, 100% of the LED light source is an LED light-emitting unit.

[0074] Furthermore, it also includes a light-diffusing assembly 80 located between the collimating lens assembly 60 and the light-emitting lens 70. The light-diffusing assembly 80 can be a diffuser, a single-sided compound eye lens, or a pair of compound eye lenses, which can further homogenize the light spot, and the homogenization effect is gradually enhanced. When a more uniform light spot is desired, by controlling the second driving current to be greater than the first driving current, the illuminance of the light in the second region 12 can be compensated. After the light-diffusing assembly 80 is applied, a uniform light spot is obtained, and the illuminance at each position is relatively high.

[0075] Furthermore, when the area ratio of the first light-emitting region 11 to the second light-emitting region 12 is 1:(0.9~1.1), and the ratio of the first driving current to the second driving current is 1:(1.1~1.3), the difference in illuminance values ​​at various points of the light spot emitted by the LED light source system is less than 15%. Specifically, in this embodiment, the light spot emitted by the LED light source system refers to the light spot located at the focal plane of the light-emitting lens 70.

[0076] Furthermore, when the area ratio of the first light-emitting region 11 to the second light-emitting region 12 is 1:(0.9~1.1), and the ratio of the first driving current to the second driving current is 1:(0.25~0.75), the LED light source system emits a bright spot with a bright center and dark edges.

[0077] Furthermore, when the area ratio of the first light-emitting area to the second light-emitting area is 1:(0.9~1.1) and the ratio of the first driving current to the second driving current is 1:(1.5~2), the LED light source system emits a bright annular light spot with a dark center and bright edges.

[0078] Furthermore, in this embodiment, taking the light-diffusing component 80 as a fogging diffuser and the area ratio of the first light-emitting area 11 to the second light-emitting area 12 as approximately 1:1, and in conjunction with a fixed-focus lens group, the light spot effect is simulated and analyzed by controlling different driving currents:

[0079] In the first scenario, when the ratio of the first driving current to the second driving current is 1:0.5 (4A and 2A respectively), a relatively bright spot is obtained, with a center-to-edge illuminance ratio of approximately 3.2:1. The optical simulation diagram is shown below. Figure 13 As shown.

[0080] The second scenario: When the ratio of the first driving current to the second driving current is 1:1 (both are 3A), it is similar to the existing technology (the light-emitting area is not divided, and the optical simulation diagram is as follows). Figure 16 As shown in the figure, the obtained illuminance ratio between the center and edge of the light spot is approximately 1.6:1, and its optical simulation diagram is shown in the figure. Figure 14 As shown.

[0081] The third scenario: When the ratio of the first driving current to the second driving current is 1:1.67 (2.25A and 3.75A respectively), a more uniform light spot is obtained, with a center-to-edge illuminance ratio of approximately 1:1. The optical simulation diagram is shown below. Figure 15 As shown.

[0082] To achieve adjustment of color temperature, color rendering index, and color, the surfaces of the first light-emitting area 11 and the second light-emitting area 12 are further provided with different phosphor layers or phosphor sheets. By using different phosphor layers or phosphor sheets in combination with the LED chip, different color temperatures, color rendering indices, or colors of light can be emitted, thereby enabling the adjustment of various light emission effects and providing diverse functions.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the claims of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
