Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If conventional light emitting device packages are used, then manufacturing is simpler, but light extraction efficiency is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing simplicityVSAvoidlight extraction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The package body is divided into multiple recesses (first recess, second recess, third recess) that segment the internal space to control light paths. This segmentation allows light to be extracted through multiple directions and interfaces, improving overall light extraction efficiency while maintaining a manageable manufacturing process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different regions of the package are assigned different functions: the first recess contains scattering material for diffuse light extraction, the second recess contains wavelength conversion material for color transformation, and the third recess provides structural support. This local differentiation optimizes light extraction at each specific location

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Strength

If bonding strength is increased through stronger bonding, then bonding force improves, but re-melting phenomena occur during re-bonding or heat treatment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebonding forceVSAvoidresistance to re-melting
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

A resin layer is introduced as an intermediary material between the light emitting device and the package body. This resin layer acts as a buffer that distributes thermal stress and prevents direct heat transfer during re-bonding or heat treatment, thereby preventing re-melting of the bonding interface while maintaining adequate bonding strength

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The resin layer changes its physical parameters (viscosity, thermal conductivity) with temperature to provide different functions at different stages: at bonding temperature, it provides adequate adhesion, while at re-bonding or heat treatment temperatures, it prevents re-melting by controlling heat transfer and maintaining structural integrity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Ease of manufacture

If package structure is simplified to reduce manufacturing cost, then manufacturing cost decreases, but light extraction efficiency and electrical characteristics deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing costVSAvoidlight extraction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The resin layer serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides electrical insulation, mechanical bonding, thermal management, and light scattering. This multi-functionality allows the package structure to be relatively simple while still achieving high light extraction efficiency and good electrical characteristics, thereby reducing manufacturing cost

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

4Ease of manufacture

If conventional materials are used, then material selection is easier, but discoloration and re-melting phenomena occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvematerial selection easeVSAvoidresistance to discoloration
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The package uses composite materials combining the resin layer with scattering material and wavelength conversion material. This composite structure provides enhanced resistance to discoloration and re-melting while maintaining ease of manufacture through standardized material selection and processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials
