The rotated second straight line 2L is defined. When viewed from above, the second straight line 2L is in the X direction, and the second straight line 2L is in the X direction. The vertical direction is the Y direction, and the coordinates of the midpoint CP are (0,0) based on the XY plane. SL is parallel to the second line 2L, and the two light reflecting members 40 are point-paired at the coordinates (0, 0). Arrange them so that they are symmetrical.
[0071] In the top view, the second straight line 2L is a side (inner side) relating to the frame of the first region 111 or the third region 113. The side (inner side) of the frame of the second region 112 or the fourth region 114 is parallel to the surface 14. Parallel or perpendicular here includes a difference of 6 degrees or less.
[0072] That is, the predetermined angle for rotating the first straight line 1L is the angle between the first straight line 1L and the base 10 in design. It is obtained from the angle formed by the line passing through the side of the frame. The predetermined angle may be designed so that
[0073] The first straight line 1L is aligned with the third alignment mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 18 Alternatively, it may be a straight line passing through any two alignment marks 18. It may be a straight line passing through three or more alignment marks 18 . Therefore, the first straight line 1L can be said to be a straight line obtained based on the plurality of alignment marks 18. do.
[0074] The two light reflecting members 40 are the third alignment mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184. Alternatively, the lines 184 may be arranged symmetrically with respect to the midpoint CP of the line connecting the lines 184.
[0075] In addition, when viewed from above, two light reflecting members 40, a third alignment mark 183, and a fourth alignment mark 184 are arranged. It does not overlap with the alignment mark 184. Therefore, at this stage, the third alignment mark The fourth alignment mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184 can be seen from the top side.
[0076] Next, the protection element 50 and the temperature measuring element 60 are disposed on the bottom surface 12 of the base 10. The element 50 is disposed on the metal film 172 on which one of the two light reflecting members 40 is disposed. The temperature measuring element 60 is made of a metal film 172 on which two light reflecting members 40 are arranged. The metal film 172 is disposed on and bonded to the metal film 172.
[0077] Next, two submounts 30 are placed on the bottom surface 12 of the base 10. Each submount 3 0 is arranged so that one of the sides of the upper surface is parallel to the first straight line when viewed from above. The two submounts 30 are disposed on different metal films 172, and their lower surfaces are The two submounts 30 are bonded to the bottom surface 12 of the base 10. The material 40 is disposed on the metal film 172 .
[0078] The submount 30 and the light reflecting member 40 may be disposed on different metal films 172. In addition, when viewed from above, the two submounts 30, the third alignment mark 183, and It does not overlap with the fourth alignment mark 184. Therefore, at this stage, the third alignment mark The mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184 can be seen from the top surface side.
[0079] Next, the semiconductor laser element 20 is placed on the submount 30. The sub-mounts 20 are placed on the upper surfaces of different sub-mounts 30, and their lower surfaces are bonded together. The position of each semiconductor laser element 20 is determined by the alignment mark 18 and the semiconductor laser element 2 0 and the light exit surface 21.
[0080] Each semiconductor laser element 20 is arranged so that the light-emitting end surface 21 is parallel to the first line 1L when viewed from above. The two semiconductor laser elements 20 are arranged point-symmetrically. With respect to the midpoint CP of the line connecting the first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark 182, The two semiconductor laser elements 20 are arranged symmetrically.
[0081] In detail, in the mounting machine, the first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark 182, the first straight line 1L is defined and the midpoint CP is determined. is the X direction, the direction perpendicular to the first line 1L is the Y direction, and the coordinates of the midpoint CP are (0,0). Based on the XY plane, the output end surface 21 is parallel to the first straight line 1L, and the two semiconductor lasers The element 20 is arranged so as to be point symmetric with respect to the coordinate (0,0).
[0082] Therefore, the two semiconductor laser elements 20 and the two light reflecting members 40 are based on the same point. The two semiconductor laser elements 20 are arranged symmetrically. The alignment marks 183 and 184 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the midpoint CP of the line connecting the alignment marks 183 and 184. This may also be done.
[0083] In addition, when viewed from above, two semiconductor laser elements 20, a third alignment mark 183, and It does not overlap with the fourth alignment mark 184. Therefore, at this stage, the third alignment mark The mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184 can be seen from the top surface side.
[0084] The two semiconductor laser elements 20 are arranged such that the light-emitting end faces 21 are in contact with the inner surface 14 of the base 10 when viewed from above. Therefore, the upper end of the light reflecting surface 41 is not parallel or perpendicular to the outer surface 15. In other words, the semiconductor laser element 20 is not perpendicular to the inner surface 14 of the base 10 when viewed from above. The light emitting end surface 21 is inclined with respect to the outer surface 15 or the upper end of the light reflecting surface 41. will be placed in.
[0085] In the light emitting device 1, when viewed from above, a line including the light emitting end face 21 of the semiconductor laser element 20 and a light reflecting face 22 are aligned. The oblique angle formed by the straight line including the upper end of the projection surface 41 is in the range of 25 degrees to 35 degrees. The oblique angle here is the angle α shown in FIG. 8, not the angle β. The oblique angle is 10 degrees or more. The angle may be in the range of 80 degrees or less. In consideration of the irradiation of light onto the light reflecting member 40, the oblique angle is 40 degrees. It is best to design it at 5 degrees or less.
[0086] In each of the two semiconductor laser elements 20, the light emitted from the light emitting end face 21 is The corresponding light reflecting member 40 is disposed on the same metal film. The light reflecting member 40 is configured so that at least the main part of the light is irradiated onto the light reflecting surface 41. , the semiconductor laser element 20 is disposed.
[0087] The first straight line 1L obtained directly from the alignment mark 18 and the first straight line 1L It is better to mount it along the first line 1L than the second line 2L obtained by rotating it at point CP. Therefore, the semiconductor laser element 20 and the light reflecting member 40, which are disposed at an angle, In this case, it is preferable to align the light emitting end surface 21 with the first straight line and the light reflecting member 40 with the second straight line. The direction of travel of light reflected by the light reflecting member 40 can be accurately determined.
[0088] The light reflecting member 40 is attached to a predetermined portion of the inner surface 14 or the outer surface 15 of the base 10 when viewed from above. Rather than mounting it along the edge, it is mounted along the second line, which is rotated a certain angle from the first line. The mounting method allows the semiconductor laser element 20 and the light reflecting member 40 to be mounted with high precision at an oblique angle. can be done.
[0089] Between the corresponding semiconductor laser element 20 and the light reflecting member 40, the semiconductor Therefore, the laser beam emitted from the semiconductor laser element 20 is The light beam propagates in a direction approaching the midpoint. At least one of them is arranged in a position close to the temperature measuring element 60. It is believed that there is no significant difference in temperature between the semiconductor laser element 20 and the other semiconductor laser element 20. This is because
[0090] The submount 30 on which the semiconductor laser element 20 is mounted is It serves as a heat dissipation member that dissipates heat generated from the laser element 20. In order for the laser diode 30 to function as a heat dissipation member, it is necessary to use a material having a higher thermal conductivity than the semiconductor laser element 20. Also, if it is made of a material with a higher thermal conductivity than the bottom surface of the base, it will be possible to achieve higher performance. This allows for a good heat dissipation effect.
[0091] In addition, the submount 30 determines the light emission position of the semiconductor laser element in the light emitting device 1. For example, the light passing through the optical axis can be adjusted to be horizontal with the bottom surface 12. When it is desired to irradiate a predetermined position on the light reflecting surface 41, the submount is adjusted by adjusting the It can be used as:
[0092] Next, the semiconductor laser element 20 is electrically connected, the protective element 50 is electrically connected, and the temperature A plurality of wires 70 are bonded to establish electrical connections of the temperature measuring element 60. For the connection, a metal film 172 provided on the bottom surface 12 of the base 10 is used. The metal film 172 provided on the bottom surface 12 of the semiconductor device 10 is a conductive region provided for electrical connection. It plays a vital role.
[0093] The wiring 70 is connected so that the two semiconductor laser elements and the protection element 50 are connected in series. In addition, the temperature measuring element 60 is separate from the two semiconductor laser elements and the protection element 50. The electrodes are joined to provide electrical connection.
[0094] Some of the wirings 70 are bonded at one end to the top surface of the semiconductor laser element 20 and at the other end to the base. 10. Therefore, one end of the wiring 70 is connected to the metal film 172 provided on the bottom surface 12 of the semiconductor device 10. The placement position when bonding to the upper surface of the solid laser element 20 is determined based on the first straight line. This allows the wiring 70 to be bonded to the narrow upper surface with high precision.
[0095] Next, the light-transmitting member 80 is placed on the upper surface of the base 10. The light-transmitting member 80 has a lower surface It is placed and joined to the upper surface of the step portion 16 of the base portion 10. More specifically, the first step portion 161 The metal film provided in the outer peripheral region of the lower surface of the light-transmitting member 80 and the first step portion The metal film provided on the upper surface of 161 is bonded and fixed via Au—Sn or the like.
[0096] The light-transmitting member 80 is joined to the base 10, forming a closed cavity in which the semiconductor laser element 20 is disposed. In this way, in the light emitting device 1, the light-transmitting member 80 serves as a lid member. This closed space is formed in an airtight sealed state. This makes it possible to prevent organic matter and the like from being collected on the light emitting end face of the semiconductor laser element 20. do.
[0097] In top view, the light-transmitting member 80 includes the third alignment mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184. On the other hand, the first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark Therefore, the first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark 182 do not overlap. The mark 182 is provided outside the joining area of the base 10 where the light-transmitting member 80 is joined.
[0098] Here, the light-transmitting member 80 is attached to the base 10 with the wavelength conversion member 90 bonded to the upper surface. That is, the light-transmitting member 80 is disposed on the upper surface of the base 10, and the wavelength conversion member 90 is disposed on the upper surface of the base 10. The wavelength conversion member 90 is disposed on the upper surface of the optical member 80. It is disposed above the semiconductor laser element 20 and the light reflecting member 40 .
[0099] The light beams emitted from the two semiconductor laser elements 20, particularly the main portions of the light beams, correspond to the respective The light is reflected by the light reflecting surface 41 of the light reflecting member 40, passes through the light-transmitting member 80, and undergoes wavelength conversion. The light is incident on the lower surface of the switching portion 91 .
[0100] A part or all of the light incident on the wavelength conversion section 91 is converted into a different wavelength by the wavelength conversion section 91. The laser light or wavelength-converted light is emitted from the upper surface of the wavelength converting section 91. The light is emitted to the outside of the light emitting device 1. In other words, the upper surface of the wavelength conversion portion 91 is the light extraction surface of the light emitting device 1. This becomes:
[0101] When viewed from above, the midpoint CP of the line connecting the first alignment mark and the second alignment mark is The wavelength conversion section is located within the region where the two semiconductor lasers are provided. The light emitted from the laser element 20 can be made to enter the wavelength conversion portion 91 effectively.
[0102] If the heat generated by wavelength conversion is concentrated in a specific location, the wavelength conversion section 91 is likely to deteriorate. Therefore, it is preferable that the distribution of light incident on the wavelength converting portion 91 is diffused. The high-intensity portions of the laser beams emitted from the semiconductor laser elements 20 do not overlap. In the light emitting device 1, the light passing through the optical axis is arranged so as not to pass through the center of the wavelength conversion section. It is set to.
[0103] The wavelength conversion member 90 is formed by joining the surrounding portion 92 and the light-transmitting member 80. The conductive member 80 is bonded to the metal film connected to one end of the conductive film in the surrounding portion 92. The metal film is joined to one of the two metal films of the conductive member 80 and connected to the other end, and the two metal As a result, the two metal films of the light-transmitting member 80 are bonded to the other metal film. As a result, it becomes possible to electrically connect the electrodes.
[0104] The conductive film is provided on the lower surface of the wavelength converting portion 91 in the form of a thin linear film. Therefore, if an abnormality such as a crack occurs in the wavelength conversion portion 91, the conductive The film also cracks, causing changes in the electrical connection. , a large increase in resistance) can be detected to detect an abnormality in the wavelength conversion unit 91. The conductive film can be considered as an abnormality detection element 93 that is a sensor for detecting an abnormality in the wavelength conversion unit 91.
[0105] The upper surface of the light-transmitting member 80 is larger than the lower surface of the wavelength conversion member 90. The upper surface of the light-transmitting member 80 surrounds the lower surface of the wavelength conversion member 90. When viewed from above, the two metal films on the upper surface of the light-transmitting member 80 are respectively the wavelength conversion member 9 It is provided from the area overlapping with the bottom surface of the .0 to the area where it does not overlap.
[0106] Next, the wiring 70 for electrically connecting the abnormality detection element 93 is joined. The metal film 173 provided on the second step portion 162 of the base 10 and the metal film 174 of the transparent member 80 are connected to each other. The area of the metal film that does not overlap with the lower surface of the wavelength converting member 90 is utilized. The metal film serves as a conductive region provided for electrical connection. 70 has one end connected to the metal film on the upper surface of the light-transmitting member 80 and the other end connected to the upper surface of the second step portion 162. It is bonded to the metal film 173 .
[0107] Here, the semiconductor laser element 20, the protection element 50, and the temperature measurement element 60 are electrically connected. The wiring 70 for connecting the first wiring 71 and the wiring for electrically connecting the abnormality detection element 93 are The line 70 will be referred to as a second wiring 72 .
[0108] The six metal films 171 on the upper surface 11 of the base 10 are used to supply power to the semiconductor laser element 20. two metal films for supplying power to the temperature measuring element 60; and two metal films for supplying power to the detection element 93. The metal film 171 provided on the upper surface 11 of the semiconductor device 10 is a conductive region provided for electrical connection. It plays a vital role in
[0109] However, the power supply mode is not limited to this. For example, the temperature measuring element 60 and the abnormality detection element If the element 93 is not provided, the metal film may not be provided. A membrane may be used.
[0110] The metal film 171 forming the first alignment mark 181 is introduced into the first region 111. The second region 112 has an alignment region for the alignment mark 18. At least the first alignment mark 181 is not formed in the first region 111. .
[0111] The metal film 171 forming the second alignment mark has a conductive region in the third region 113. and a fourth region 114 has an alignment region for the alignment mark 18. At least, the second alignment mark 182 is not formed in the third region 113.
[0112] Next, the light blocking member 100 is formed inside the frame formed by the upper surface 11 of the base 10. The light-shielding portion 100 is formed so as to fill the gap between the base portion 10 and the wavelength conversion member 90. The material 100 can be formed by pouring resin into the gap and hardening it with heat. By embedding the light-shielding member 100, it is possible to obtain a better light-shielding effect than by embedding the standardized light-shielding member 100. It is possible. The resin does not enter the closed space in which the semiconductor laser element 20 is disposed.
[0113] The light blocking member 100 has an inner surface 14 that intersects with the upper surface 11 of the base 10, a step portion 16 of the base 10, and a the upper surface, the side surface of the light-transmitting member 80, the upper surface of the light-transmitting member 80, and the side surface of the wavelength conversion member 90; In addition, it does not reach the upper surface of the wavelength conversion member 90. Alternatively, it does not reach the upper surface of the surrounding portion 92. Even if it does reach the upper surface of the wavelength conversion portion 91, it does not reach the upper surface of the semiconductor laser element 2. 0 can be prevented from leaking from places other than the wavelength converting section 91.
[0114] The light-shielding member 100 also contains the second wiring 72. At this point, the second wiring 72 is not exposed in the light emitting device 1. It is possible to protect the material from adhesion of water droplets, etc. However, it is not necessarily required to encapsulate the material.
[0115] The wavelength conversion member 90 passes through the through-hole formed in the light blocking member 100. The convex protrusion formed on the underside of the light-transmitting member 80 is connected to the side surface of the base 10. The inner surface 14 fits into the groove between the inner surface 14 and the outer surface 14 .
[0116] The light blocking member 100 is a metal member exposed inside the frame formed by the upper surface 11 of the base 10 when viewed from above. In the light emitting device 1, the light blocking member 100 is made of an insulating material. This serves as an insulating member, preventing the external power source from The conduction area for power supply can be limited to the outside of the recessed space.
[0117] In addition, when viewed from above, the light blocking member 100 includes the first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark 182. In other words, the light blocking member 100 does not overlap with the first alignment mark 182. 181 and the second alignment mark 182 are not hidden.
[0118] The light emitting device 1 can be manufactured through the above steps. The light emitting device 1 has the following external shape: It has a first alignment mark 181 and a second alignment mark 182. When the manufactured light emitting device 1 is mounted on another component, the first alignment mark 181 Furthermore, high-precision mounting using the second alignment mark 182 becomes possible.
[0119] The third alignment mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184 are aligned on the bottom surface of the base 10. 12, and the first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark The mounting marks 182 may be used for mounting other components. In some cases, the alignment mark 18 provided on the same plane as the bottom surface 12, which is the placement surface, may be can sometimes be implemented with high accuracy.
[0120] The first alignment mark 181 and the second alignment mark 182 are also The third alignment mark 183 and the fourth alignment mark 184 are used for mounting with components other than the first alignment mark 184. The work 184 may be used for mounting components of the light emitting device 1. Depending on the process, the alignment marks 18 on the top surface 11 and the alignment marks 19 on the bottom surface 12 may be You may use either Q18 or Q19.
[0121] The steps described here are just an example, and the order of some of the steps may be changed. For example, before arranging the light reflecting member 40, the submount 30 and the semiconductor laser element 20 Alternatively, for example, the semiconductor laser element 20 may be disposed on the submount 30. Therefore, the submount 30 may be disposed on the bottom surface 12. If the order is not correct, it can be changed flexibly. For example, after forming a closed space with a lid member, the semiconductor laser element 20 is placed in the closed space. This is the order of the process.
[0122] Second Embodiment Fig. 13 is a perspective view of the light emitting device 2 according to the second embodiment. Fig. 14 is a perspective view corresponding to Fig. 13. 15 is a top view of the light emitting device 2. FIG. 15 is a light-shielded view of the light emitting device 2 to explain the internal structure. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a state in which a member 101 is removed.
[0123] The light emitting device 2 according to the second embodiment has a base shape and a light blocking member formed therewith. The shape is different from that of the light emitting device 1 according to the first embodiment. The alignment marks were formed by providing a metal film in the area where the alignment marks were to be formed. In position 2, alignment is achieved by providing a metal film around the area to be used as an alignment mark. Form a mark.
[0124] In the base 10 of the light emitting device 1, the second step portion 162 is located between the second region 112 and the fourth region 113 in a top view. The area 114 is formed along the entire length of the side of the frame. 0, the second step portion 163 is in contact with a part of the side of the frame in the second region 112 in top view. The fourth region 114 is formed on a part of the side of the frame. Since the meanings of are the same as those explained in the first embodiment, they are denoted by the symbols in FIGS. 13 to 15. The number is omitted.
[0125] In addition, in the top view, the second region 112 has a second step portion 16 on another part of the side of the frame. 3 is not formed, and the second step portion 163 is formed in another part of the side relating to the frame in the fourth region 114. Specifically, the edges of the second area 112 and the fourth area 113 are not formed. In this case, the second step portion 163 is formed in the central portion, and the second step portions 16 are formed on both sides thereof. 3 is not formed.
[0126] In the portion where the second step portion 163 is not formed, the upper surface of the first step portion 161 intersects with the upper surface 11. Therefore, the second region 112 and the fourth region 114 of the upper surface 11 intersect with the side surfaces. The portion of the upper surface 11 that intersects with the inner surface 14 is concave in top view. In terms of the distance from the surface 15 to the outer surface 15, the part of the concave depression is closer to the surface 15 than the part of the concave depression. The parts on both sides are larger.
[0127] Here, the former narrow part is the narrow part of the upper surface 11, and the latter wide part is the wide part of the upper surface 11. The second region 112 and the fourth region are referred to as the wide region. 3 is a line passing through the inner surface 14 of the wide portion and a line passing through the outer surface 15 of the wide portion when viewed from above. is formed between
[0128] In the light emitting device 2, an alignment mark 19 is provided on the wide portion of the upper surface 11. , the first alignment mark 191 and the second alignment mark 192 The alignment mark is formed by surrounding the area where the alignment mark is to be provided with a metal film. As an example of a typical method of forming the alignment marks, a mask is applied to the area where the alignment marks are to be formed, and then a gold For example, a metal film is formed on the substrate and then the mask is removed. Then, we removed the metal film only in the area where the alignment marks were to be placed. That's fine.
[0129] When forming an alignment mark using the metal film 171, as in the light emitting device 1, Rather than forming a metal film in the shape of the alignment mark, as in the light emitting device 2, In some cases, forming a metal film around the area where the ment mark is to be provided may result in stable manufacturing. On the other hand, between the former and latter cases, the latter is easier to form alignment marks. Therefore, a large area needs to be secured.
[0130] In the case of the light emitting device 1, the second step portion is formed along the entire length of the side of the frame. In order to form the latter alignment mark, the outer shape of the base must be enlarged. As in the light emitting device 2, the outer shape of the base is enlarged by partially forming the second step portion. The latter method can form alignment marks without using the conventional method.
[0131] Therefore, when viewed from above, the first region 111 or the third region 113 is parallel to the side of the frame. The first alignment mark 191 or the second alignment mark 192 is a straight line. The straight line does not intersect with the second step portion 163. Also, the second step portion 163 is A straight line passing through the alignment mark 191 and a straight line passing through the second alignment mark 192 are The first alignment layer is formed in the sandwiched region and not outside this region. The straight line connecting the first alignment mark 191 and the second alignment mark 192 does not intersect with the second step portion 163. I don't understand.
[0132] In the light emitting device 2, the second step portion 16 is The length of the first step portion 161 is longer than the length of the light emitting device 1. The difference between the length of the difference portion 161 and the length of the second step portion 163 becomes large. The second wiring 72 is bonded to the metal film on the upper surface of the wiring 72 .
[0133] The light blocking member 101 can be formed by, for example, pouring resin and applying heat to it. The resin is made of an insulating material, and is used to prevent the second wiring 72 from being damaged due to factors outside the device. It serves as an insulating material that protects the circuit from electrical current passing through. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to form an insulating member so that the second wiring 72 is not exposed. As described above, the second step portion 163 of the light emitting device 2 is shorter in length than the first step portion 161, and therefore the resin This makes it easier to control the flow of the liquid.
[0134] As explained above, the present invention having the technical features disclosed in the specification The present invention is not limited to the structure of the light emitting device described in each embodiment. The present invention can also be applied to a light emitting device having components not shown, and The fact that there is a difference between the light emitting device and the light emitting device described above does not constitute a reason for not being able to apply the present invention.
