Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to a packaging structure, and more particularly to a light-emitting element packaging structure and a light-emitting module. Background Technology
[0002] With rising global awareness of environmental protection, energy-saving electronic products have become a trend. Taking the lighting industry as an example, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have gradually gained a foothold in the market due to their advantages such as energy saving, power saving, long lifespan, and mercury-free properties.
[0003] However, the luminous intensity of LEDs is spatially distributed in a Lambertian radiation pattern with a beam angle of approximately 120 degrees. In other words, when the luminous angle exceeds 120 degrees, the intensity of the light weakens, resulting in dark bands between the luminous areas of adjacent LEDs in existing light-emitting modules.
[0004] To overcome the above problems, a typical light-emitting module must increase the number of light-emitting diodes to shorten the spacing between adjacent light-emitting diodes. However, this approach increases the cost and power consumption of the light-emitting module. Utility Model Content

[0043] First Embodiment
[0044] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional perspective view of the light-emitting element packaging structure of this utility model. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the light-emitting element packaging structure according to the first embodiment of the present invention. This application provides a light-emitting element packaging structure (LEP) including a base 1, a light-emitting element 2, a wall 3, an optical element 4, and a reflective layer 5.
[0045] like Figure 2 As shown in the cross-sectional view from a side perspective, the base 1 is a plate-like structure, such as a printed circuit board (PCB), a ceramic carrier, or others, but not limited thereto. The base 1 has a first side surface S. A wall 3 is disposed on surface S and along the edge of the base 1. The wall 3 has a height DH1 along the normal direction of surface S, and together with surface S of the base 1, defines an accommodating space SP. In this embodiment, the wall 3 and the base 1 are integrally formed from the same material, and the wall 3 has a first surface S31 facing the accommodating space SP and a second surface S32 opposite to the first surface S31. In this embodiment, the tangent of the first surface S31 (e.g., the inner wall surface) forms an angle θ1 greater than or equal to 90 degrees with surface S of the base 1, and the second surface S32 (e.g., the outer wall surface) is on the same vertical plane as the side surface S10 of the base 1, that is, the second surface S32 is flush with the side surface S10 of the base 1.
[0046] Viewed from above, the accommodating space SP defined by the base 1 and the wall 3 has an upward-opening bowl-shaped structure. In the first embodiment, the wall 3 and the base 1 can be formed in one step by injecting an insulating inorganic material into a mold. The insulating inorganic material can be, for example, epoxy molding composite (EMC), but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the wall 3 and the base 1 can also be a two-piece structure composed of different materials (further explanation in subsequent embodiments).
[0047] The light-emitting element 2 is located in the accommodating space SP and disposed on the surface S of the base 1. The light-emitting element 2 can be, for example, a light-emitting diode (LED) or a laser diode (LD). Furthermore, the light-emitting element 2 can be fixed to the base 1 by wire bonding or flip-chip bonding. The light-emitting element 2 can be a point light source or a surface light source, and it has a light-emitting surface ES from which light is emitted. The light-emitting surface ES is parallel to the tangent direction of the surface S. In this embodiment, the light-emitting element 2 is located at the geometric center of the accommodating space SP, so that its emitted light is evenly dispersed throughout the accommodating space SP, but this invention is not limited to this. In addition, the number of light-emitting elements 2 is not limited to a single element; there can also be multiple light-emitting elements 2, which can be composed of light-emitting diodes emitting different colors.
[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the reflective layer 5 is disposed in the accommodating space SP, covering the surface S of the base 1, surrounding the light-emitting element 2, and exposing the light-emitting surface ES. The material of the reflective layer 5 can be white silicone resin or a highly reflective colloid, and it is disposed around the light-emitting element 2. The reflective layer 5 can provide the light-emitting element 2 with a complete reflection path and sufficient reflection intensity, further improving the brightness of the light-emitting element 2.
[0049] Optical element 4 is mounted on base 1 and wall 3, sealing the opening of accommodating space SP and covering light-emitting element 2 and reflective layer 5. Viewed from top and side angles, optical element 4 appears as a multifaceted cube with a top surface TS and a side surface S40 connecting to the top surface TS. The top surface TS is a generally flat surface located at the top of optical element 4. Furthermore, the side surface S40 slopes outward from the end connecting to the top surface TS towards base 1. The outer edge of the other end of side surface S40 (away from the top surface TS) does not extend beyond the side surface S10 of base 1, or may be approximately flush with the side surface S10 of base 1.
[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, viewed from top and side angles, the optical element 4 appears as a cube resembling a frustum, having a top surface TS and a bottom surface BS facing each other, and a side surface S40 connecting the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS. The top surface TS is a generally flat surface located at the top of the optical element 4, and is approximately parallel to surface S. The bottom surface BS is located at the bottom of the optical element 4. Because the vertical projection area of the top surface TS is smaller than the vertical projection area of the bottom surface BS, the overall structure is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. Therefore, the tangent of the side surface S40 forms an angle θ2 less than 90 degrees with the normal of the bottom surface BS or the top surface TS. For example, θ2 can be greater than or equal to 45 degrees and less than 90 degrees. The side surface S40 is located around the optical element 4, and can be a plane (as in the first embodiment) or a curved surface (further explanation in subsequent embodiments). The optical element 4 can be composed of any light-transmitting material, such as glass, silicone, polymethyl methacrylate, or polycarbonate, but this invention is not limited to these.
[0051] In the first embodiment, the optical element 4 has a first lens structure 41, whose side surface S40 includes four sub-side surfaces S41, each of which is a plane inclined relative to the bottom surface BS and the top surface TS. Viewed from a top angle, the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS are rectangular, such as prisms. In this embodiment, the first lens structure 41 is in the shape of a truncated pyramid, but the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS of this invention can also be other polygons, and their shapes are not limited to this. Viewed from a side angle in cross-section, the cross-section of the truncated pyramid along the normal direction of surface S is a trapezoidal structure, and the sides of the trapezoid are the sub-side surfaces S41, which are inclined relative to the bottom surface BS at a predetermined slope. Each sub-side surface S41 has a top edge connected to the top surface TS and a bottom edge connected to the bottom surface BS, and the length L1W1 of the top edge is less than the length L1W2 of the bottom edge.
[0052] In addition, a light-transmitting layer 6 is provided between the optical element 4 and the light-emitting element 2. The light-transmitting layer 6 covers the light-emitting surface ES and the upper surface of the reflective layer 5, and fills the accommodating space SP. In this embodiment, the light-transmitting layer 6 is composed of a light-transmitting material, and can be made of the same material as the optical element 4 to avoid the reduction of light intensity due to refraction caused by light passing through different media. In this embodiment, the light-transmitting layer 6 and the optical element 4 can be integrated. However, it should be noted that the light-transmitting layer 6 can also be made of a different material than the optical element 4. For example, in other embodiments, the light-transmitting layer 6 can be a light adjustment layer, such as a wavelength conversion layer (further explanation in subsequent embodiments). This invention is not limited to this.
[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the ratio (L1W1 / L1W2) of the length of the top edge L1W1 to the length of the bottom edge L1W2 of each sub-side surface S41 is in the range of 0.5 to 0.95; or the ratio (L1H / L1W2) of the height L1H of the optical element 4 in the direction perpendicular to the light-emitting surface ES to the length of the bottom edge L1W2 is in the range of 0.25 to 0.4; or the slope of the sub-side surface S41 is in the range of 1 to 16; or the ratio (DH1 / h1) of the height DH1 of the wall 3 to the height h1 of the light-emitting element 2 in the direction perpendicular to the light-emitting surface ES is in the range of 0.2 to 2.
[0054] Based on the aforementioned structure, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 is emitted towards and penetrates the optical element 4 through the light-transmitting layer 6. The light can be emitted outward from the top surface TS and the side surface S40, that is, the light is emitted outward from the top surface TS and the four sub-side surfaces S41 (forming five-sided light emission). Therefore, the light-emitting element packaging structure LEP of this embodiment has a light emission angle of more than 120 degrees (e.g., 165 to 170 degrees) and high uniformity of light emission.
[0055] Furthermore, through this structure, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 of the light-emitting element packaging structure LEP in this embodiment can achieve effective light extraction through the reflective layer 5 / wall 3, further improving the brightness of the light-emitting element 2.
[0056] Second Embodiment
[0057] Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the present invention. In the second embodiment, the light-emitting element encapsulation structure (LEP) includes a base 1, a light-emitting element 2, a wall 3, an optical element 4, and a reflective layer 5. The base 1, light-emitting element 2, wall 3, optical element 4, and reflective layer 5 are based on the architecture of the first embodiment; therefore, the same elements and features as in the first embodiment will not be described again here.
[0058] The difference between the second embodiment of this utility model and the first embodiment lies in that the light-transmitting layer between the optical element 4 and the light-emitting element 2 is a light adjustment layer 7. In this embodiment, the light adjustment layer 7 is, for example, a wavelength conversion layer, which fills the accommodating space SP. The wavelength conversion layer 7 is made of a light-transmitting material including fluorescent materials (such as silicone resin). The fluorescent materials include materials based on sulfides, aluminates, oxides, silicates, nitrides, yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG), and terbium aluminum garnet, which allows the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 to be converted into different colors through the wavelength conversion layer 7. For example, when the light-emitting element 2 is composed of red, green, and blue light-emitting diodes (RGB LEDs), because the wavelengths of red and green light are greater than those of blue light, the luminous intensity of red and green light will be greater than that of blue light when the light emission path is long. This will cause the color of the light from the side of the optical element 4 to be inconsistent and uneven with the color of the light from the top of the optical element 4. Therefore, this invention increases the amount of light emitted in a predetermined color and reduces the color difference of light by adjusting the type of fluorescent material in the wavelength conversion layer 7 and the height of the wavelength conversion layer 7. Furthermore, in the direction perpendicular to the light-emitting surface ES, the ratio (WH1 / RH1) of the maximum height WH1 of the wavelength conversion layer 7 to the minimum height RH1 of the reflective layer 5 is in the range of 0.8 to 1.5, exhibiting superior optical characteristics. These optical characteristics are measured by light uniformity or color over angle (COA) values. COA values are obtained by measuring the intensity of each color at two locations: a zero emission angle and an ±45-degree emission angle. The smaller the COA value, the more consistent the color intensity measured at different angles. Based on the aforementioned structure, the minimum COA value in this embodiment can be controlled within ±0.002, indicating that the color intensity measured at different angles by the LEP (Light Emitting Element) packaging structure of this embodiment is highly consistent. Furthermore, with this structure, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 of the LEP (Light Emitting Element Packaging Structure) in this embodiment can achieve effective light extraction through the reflective layer 5 / wall 3, further improving the brightness of the light-emitting element 2. In addition, the LEP in this embodiment has a light emission angle of over 120 degrees and high uniformity of light emission.
[0059] Third Embodiment
[0060] Figure 4This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the third embodiment of the present invention. In the third embodiment, the light-emitting element encapsulation structure (LEP) includes a base 1, a light-emitting element 2, a wall 3, an optical element 4, a reflective layer 5, and a wavelength conversion layer 7. The base 1, light-emitting element 2, wall 3, reflective layer 5, and wavelength conversion layer 7 are based on the architecture of the second embodiment; therefore, the same components and features as in the second embodiment will not be described again here.
[0061] The difference between the light-emitting element packaging structure of the third embodiment of this utility model and the second embodiment lies in the structural shape of the optical element 4. Viewed from above, the optical element 4 has a second lens structure 42, and has a top surface TS and a bottom surface BS facing each other, as well as a side surface S40 connecting the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS. The top surface TS is a generally flat surface located at the top of the optical element 4, and the bottom surface BS is located at the bottom of the optical element 4. Both the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS are parallel to the surface S. The top surface TS and the bottom surface BS can be polygonal, and their shapes are not limited to this. In this embodiment, the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS are rectangular planes, such as rectangular planes. The side surface S40 includes multiple curved side surfaces S42 connecting the top surface TS and the bottom surface BS. Because the vertical projected area of the top surface TS is smaller than the vertical projected area of the bottom surface BS, the overall structure presents a shape that is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom.
[0062] Viewed from a side perspective, in this embodiment, the second lens structure 42 has four side curved surfaces S42, four side planes S44, and four side vertical surfaces S46. One end of each of the four side curved surfaces S42 is connected to the top surface TS. Each side plane S44 connects to the other end of a side curved surface S42 and a side vertical surface S46. One end of each of the four side vertical surfaces S46 is connected to the bottom surface BS and is approximately perpendicular to each other. Each side curved surface S42 curves from the top surface TS of the optical element 4 towards the edge of the side plane S44. Each side plane S44 is parallel to the bottom surface BS and perpendicular to the corresponding side vertical surface S46. Each side curved surface S42 has a top edge connected to the top surface TS, and the corresponding side vertical surface S46 has a bottom edge connected to the bottom surface BS. The length L2W1 of the top edge is less than the length L2W2 of the bottom edge. In addition, the second lens structure 42 is a stepped frustum structure composed of an upper section and a lower section. The optical element 4 has a height of the first height L2H1 in the direction perpendicular to the light-emitting surface ES (that is, the distance between the bottom surface and the top surface, which is the sum of the heights of the upper and lower sections), and the distance between the side plane S44 and the bottom surface BS is the second height L2H2.
[0063] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the ratio of the length of the top edge L2W1 to the length of the bottom edge L2W2 (L2W1 / L2W2) is in the range of 0.5 to 0.95; or the ratio of the first height L2H1 to the length of the bottom edge L2W2 (L2H1 / L2W2) is in the range of 0.25 to 0.4; or the ratio of the second height L2H2 to the first height L2H1 is in the range of 0.02 to 0.08. Based on the aforementioned structure, the light-emitting element packaging structure LEP of this embodiment has better optical characteristics. The optical characteristics refer to the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 being emitted by the second lens structure 42 to the outside with a light emission angle of more than 120 degrees (e.g., 155 to 160 degrees) and high uniformity.
[0064] Fourth embodiment
[0065] Figure 5 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the light-emitting element packaging structure according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention (e.g., along...). Figure 1 (The section is taken from line II-II). The light-emitting element packaging structure of the fourth embodiment is similar to that of the first embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated. Compared with the first embodiment, the difference of the light-emitting element packaging structure of the fourth embodiment of this utility model lies in the structure and positional connection relationship of the wall and the optical element.
[0066] Please see Figure 5 In the fourth embodiment, the light-emitting element encapsulation structure (LEP) includes a base 1, a light-emitting element 2, a wall 3', an optical element 4, and a reflective layer 5. Viewed from above, the base 1 appears as a flat plate structure of a certain thickness, and has a surface S. The light-emitting element 2 and the wall 3' are disposed on the surface S. Unlike the first embodiment, in the fourth embodiment, the wall 3' and the base 1 can be a two-piece structure composed of the same or different materials, and the wall 3' is positioned on the base 1 near the light-emitting element 2, located between the optical element 4 and the light-emitting element 2.
[0067] In this embodiment, the base 1 may be composed of bismaleimide triazineresin (BT resin) or ceramic material. The wall 3' may be composed of organic material, which may be a polymer, resin, silicone resin, organic light-converting substance, wavelength-blocking substance, or organic diffusing agent. For example, the wall 3' may contain resin and reflective particles dispersed within the resin, such as titanium oxide, zinc oxide, aluminum oxide, barium sulfate, or calcium carbonate.
[0068] Specifically, the wall 3' can be formed on the surface S by nozzle coating or printing. The overall appearance of the wall 3' can be a polygonal ring structure composed of continuous or discontinuous dams. Viewed from the side in cross-sectional view, the wall 3' is arranged around the light-emitting element 2 and is located between the optical element 4 and the light-emitting element 2. The wall 3' has a predetermined height DH2 along the normal direction of the surface S, and together with the surface S of the base 1, it defines the accommodating space SP.
[0069] like Figure 5 As shown, the reflective layer 5 covers the surface S of the base 1 and fills the accommodating space SP. The material of the reflective layer 5 can be white silicone resin or a highly reflective colloid, which is coated around the light-emitting element 2 and exposes the light-emitting surface ES. The reflective layer 5 can provide the light-emitting element 2 with a complete reflection path and sufficient reflection intensity, thus further improving the brightness of the light-emitting element 2.
[0070] In this embodiment, the optical element 4 is the same first lens structure 41 as in the first embodiment. Viewed from above, the bottom surface BS of the optical element 4 and the surface S of the base 1 are approximately the same size (e.g., rectangular), with each side of the bottom surface BS corresponding to each side of the surface S. Furthermore, the optical element 4 covers the surface S of the base 1, the light-emitting element 2, the wall 3', and the reflective layer 5. In this embodiment, in the direction perpendicular to the light-emitting surface ES, the ratio (DH2 / h2) of the height DH2 of the wall 3' to the height h2 of the light-emitting element 2 is in the range of 0.2 to 2. Therefore, based on the aforementioned structure, the wall 3' using a dam structure can confine the reflective layer 5 surrounding the light-emitting element 2, achieving effective light extraction and reducing the amount of reflective colloid used, thereby reducing process costs. Moreover, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 penetrates the optical element 4 and diverges outward from the top surface TS and the side surface S40 (forming five-sided light emission), thus the light-emitting element encapsulation structure LEP of this embodiment has a light emission angle exceeding 120 degrees.
[0071] Fifth Embodiment
[0072] Figure 6 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the fifth embodiment of the present invention. Figure 7 This is a diagram showing the luminous intensity and angle distribution of the fifth embodiment of this utility model and the control group. Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of another embodiment of the present invention. The light-emitting element packaging structure of the fifth embodiment is similar to that of the fourth embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated. Compared with the fourth embodiment, the light-emitting element packaging structure of the fifth embodiment of the present invention differs in that the light-emitting element packaging structure also includes a wavelength conversion layer 7', which covers the light-emitting element 2 and extends to cover the reflective layer 5, but does not exceed the wall 3'.
[0073] Please see Figure 6 In the fifth embodiment, the light-emitting element package structure LEP includes a base 1, a light-emitting element 2, a wall 3', an optical element 4, a reflective layer 5, and a wavelength conversion layer 7'. The base 1, light-emitting element 2, wall 3', optical element 4, and reflective layer 5 are based on the architecture of the fourth embodiment; therefore, the same elements and features as in the fourth embodiment will not be repeated here.
[0074] In the fifth embodiment, a wavelength conversion layer 7' is provided between the optical element 4 and the light-emitting element 2. The wavelength conversion layer 7' covers the light-emitting surface ES and extends to the upper surface of the reflective layer 5. Viewed from above, the vertical projection area of the reflective layer 5 onto the base 1 is greater than or equal to the vertical projection area of the wavelength conversion layer 7' onto the base 1, and the vertical projection area of the wavelength conversion layer 7' onto the base 1 is greater than the vertical projection area of the light-emitting surface ES onto the base 1. Furthermore, the wavelength conversion layer 7' can form a lens structure with a curved surface. This invention exhibits superior optical characteristics by having a ratio (WH2 / RH2) of the maximum height WH2 of the wavelength conversion layer 7' to the minimum height RH2 of the reflective layer 5 in the direction perpendicular to the light-emitting surface ES within the range of 0.8 to 1.5. The optical characteristics are measured by the values of light uniformity or color overangle (COA). The COA value is obtained by measuring the intensity of each color at two points: a zero emission angle and a ±45 degree emission angle. The smaller the COA value, the more consistent the color intensity measured at different angles. Based on the aforementioned structure, the COA value in this embodiment can be controlled to a minimum of ±0.002, indicating that the color intensity measured at different angles in this embodiment is highly consistent. Furthermore, with this structure, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 of the LEP in this embodiment can achieve effective light extraction through the reflective layer 5 / wall 3', further improving the brightness of the light-emitting element 2. Moreover, based on the aforementioned structure, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 2 penetrates the optical element 4 and diffuses outward from the top surface TS and the side surface S40, thereby giving the LEP in this embodiment a emission angle exceeding 120 degrees and highly uniform light emission.
[0075] Please see details Figure 7 , Figure 7The graphs show the luminous intensity and angular distribution of the LEP (Light Emitting Device) package structure of the fifth embodiment and a control group. The control group is a conventional luminous element package structure without the optical element 4 and reflective layer 5 of this invention. Curve A in the graph represents the control group, whose luminous angle distribution range is within 120 degrees, i.e., the light intensity is between -60 degrees and 60 degrees. Curve A is approximately circular. Curve B represents the LEP package structure of the fifth embodiment, whose luminous angle distribution range is between 130 degrees and 160 degrees, i.e., the light intensity is between -80 degrees and 80 degrees. Curve B is approximately elliptical. The luminous intensity and angular distribution graphs show that the LEP package structure of this invention can expand the luminous angle and improve uniformity without increasing power consumption.
[0076] Furthermore, in the fifth embodiment, the measured light intensity of the light-emitting element 2 is greater than the light intensity of the existing light-emitting chip without optical element 4 and reflective layer 5. The increased light intensity ratio is greater than or equal to 0.12. Therefore, without increasing power consumption and maintaining the original length and width of the light-emitting element packaging structure LEP, the present invention can increase the overall light intensity by configuring optical element 4 and reflective layer 5.
[0077] The fifth embodiment also includes another method, such as Figure 8 As shown, the wavelength conversion layer 7' only covers the light-emitting surface ES, forming a slightly hemispherical lens structure with curvature. The amount of wavelength conversion layer 7' required is small, which can save the overall cost of the light-emitting element packaging, while also having a light emission angle of more than 120 degrees.
[0078] Sixth Embodiment
[0079] Figure 9 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the sixth embodiment of the present invention. Figure 10 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of another embodiment of the present invention (sixth embodiment). The packaging structure of the light-emitting element in the sixth embodiment is similar to that in the fifth embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated. The difference between the packaging structure of the light-emitting element in the sixth embodiment and that in the fifth embodiment lies in the shape and structure of the optical element 4.
[0080] In the sixth embodiment, the optical element 4 is a second lens structure 42. The morphology and structure of the second lens structure 42 are as described in the third embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0081] A wavelength conversion layer 7' is provided between optical element 4 and light-emitting element 2, such as Figure 9 As shown, the wavelength conversion layer 7' can cover the light surface ES and extend to the upper surface of the reflective layer 5, or the wavelength conversion layer 7' can simply cover the light surface ES (as shown in the image). Figure 10 (As shown).
[0082] Figure 10 In another embodiment of the sixth embodiment, as shown in the figure, the wavelength conversion layer 7' only covers the light-emitting surface ES, forming a slightly hemispherical lens structure with curvature. The amount of wavelength conversion layer 7' required is small, which can save the overall cost of the light-emitting element packaging, while having a light emission angle of more than 120 degrees.
[0083] In addition, this utility model also provides a light-emitting module, which can be composed of multiple light-emitting element package structures (LEPs) of any of the foregoing embodiments of this utility model. In the light-emitting module, multiple light-emitting element package structures (LEPs) are disposed on a circuit board in a preset arrangement, such as arranging the multiple light-emitting element package structures into an array, a column, or a row.
[0084] Furthermore, when multiple light-emitting element package structures (LEPs) are arranged in a preset manner, adjacent LEPs can have a spacing between them, ensuring that no dark bands appear between adjacent light-emitting elements. In one embodiment, the spacing is greater than 8 cm and less than 12 cm.
[0085] Because the light in each LED package structure (LEP) passes through the light-transmitting layer / wavelength conversion layer and optical element 4, forming a secondary optical path, the light emitted by the LED can have a emission angle exceeding 120 degrees, and exhibits better light uniformity and intensity. Therefore, when applied to LED modules, it is not necessary to increase the number of LED package structures to solve the dark band problem between adjacent LEDs. In other words, increasing the spacing between adjacent LED package structures (LEPs) effectively reduces the number of LED package structures used in the overall LED module, thereby reducing costs.
[0086] Beneficial effects of the embodiments
[0087] One of the beneficial effects of this utility model is that, without increasing power consumption and maintaining the original length and width of the light-emitting element packaging structure LEP, this utility model can increase the overall light intensity and have a light emission angle of more than 120 degrees by configuring optical elements with special structures as secondary optics and reflective layers; the ratio of the height of the wall to the height of the light-emitting element is in the range of 0.2 to 2.
[0088] Another beneficial effect of this invention is that by adjusting the type of fluorescent material in the wavelength conversion layer and the height of the wavelength conversion layer, and with the ratio of the height of the wavelength conversion layer to the height of the reflective layer in the range of 0.8 to 1.5, the amount of light emitted by a predetermined color can be increased, thereby reducing the difference in the color performance of light with angle, that is, minimizing the numerical difference in color change at angles (which can be controlled within ±0.002), making the color intensity measured at different angles consistent, and exhibiting high light uniformity.
[0089] In summary, because the LEP (Light Emitting Element) packaging structure of this invention combines a large emission angle, light intensity, and high uniformity, it can solve the dark band problem between adjacent light-emitting elements when applied to light-emitting modules without increasing the number of LEP packaging structures. In other words, increasing the spacing between adjacent LEP packaging structures effectively reduces the number of LEP packaging structures used in the overall light-emitting module, thereby reducing costs.
