The conductive layer 40 may be disposed on the second conductivity type semiconductor layer 34. The conductive layer 40 may reduce full-reflection, with an excellent transmissivity. Because of that, the conductive layer 40 may improve extraction efficiency of the lights emitted from the second conductivity type semiconductor layer 34. The conductive layer 40 may be formed of a transparent oxide-based material with a high transmissivity with respect to the wavelengths of the lights. For example, the transparent oxide-based may be indium in oxide (INO), tin oxide (TO), indium zinc oxide (IZO) and zinc oxide (ZO). According to another embodiment, the conductive layer 40 may be omitted.
The first electrode 12 and the third electrode 16 may be disposed on the exposed region of the first conductivity type semiconductor layer 32 and the second electrode 14 or the fourth electrode 18 may be disposed on the second conductivity type semiconductor layer 34 or the conductive layer 40.

The blocking partition wall 680 may be positioned on the top surface 103 of the body 110, between the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124. The blocking partition wall 680 may be extended from the top surface 103 of the body 110 upwardly. That is, the blocking partition 680 may be partially disposed on the bottom 103 of the cavity 105, positioned between the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124.
The reflection wall 102 may be position around the first reflection cup 122, the second reflection cup 124, the first connection pad 126 and the second connection pad 128. Also, the reflection wall 102 may be extended from the top surface 103 of the body 110 upwardly.
The blocking partition wall 680 may block the light emitted from the first light emitting device 132 and the light emitted from the second light emitting device 134 from interfering with each other.
The height (H4) of the blocking partition wall 680 may be identical to or larger than the height of the wires 152 to 158 bonded in the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134. The height (H4) may be identical to or smaller than the height of the side wall 102 of the cavity 105 and the embodiment may not be limited thereby. The height of at least one of the wires 152 to 158 may be larger than the height (H4) of the blocking partition wall 680.
The blocking partition wall 680 may be formed of the same material as the material used to form the body 110 and it may be integrally formed with the body 110. However, the embodiment may not be limited thereby. The width (W) of the blocking partition wall 680 may be identical to or smaller than the distance (D1) between the first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124.
According to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the blocking partition wall 680 may not be positioned on the other region except the region of the bottom 103 of the cavity 105 located between the first reflection cup 122 and the first connection pad 126, between the first reflection cup 122 and the second connection pad 128, between the second reflection cup 124 and the first connection pad 126 and between the second reflection cup 124 and the second connection pad 128.

For example, an end of the fifth wire 159 may be bonded with the zenor diode 150 and the other end of the fifth wire 159 may be bonded with the top surface 124-3 of the second reflection cup 124.
The first light emitting device 132 and the second light emitting device 134 may generate lights and they are also heat sources that emit heat. The first reflection cup 122 may block the heat generated from the first light emitting device of the heat source from emitting toward the body 110. The second reflection cup 124 may block the heat generated from the second light emitting device 134 from emitting toward the body 110. In other words, the first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124 may thermally separate the first light emitting device 132 and the second light emitting device 134 that are the heat sources from the other component parts. The first and second reflection cups 122 and 124 may block the lights emitted from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from interfering with each other.
Especially, in the embodiment, the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124 may be formed in the bottom 103 of the body 110 and a region of the bottom of the body 110 may be disposed between the first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124. Because of that, the thermal separation enabled by the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124 may be improved and the interference of the lights generated from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be reduced more. As a result, the embodiment may separate the first light emitting device 132 and the second light emitting device 134 from each other thermally and optically by the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134.
The first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124 may be spaced a predetermined distance (D1) from each other and between them may be disposed a predetermined region 103-1 of the bottom 103 of the body 110 formed of polyphthalamide.
Also, to block the light interference between the light emitting devices 132 and 134 effectively and to improve the reflection efficiency, the first light emitting device 132 may be mounted on the bottom (122-1) of the first reflection cup 122, spaced apart a predetermined distance from the side surface 122-2 of the first reflection cup 122, and the second light emitting device 134 may be mounted on the bottom 124-1 of the second reflection cup 124, spaced apart a predetermined distance from the side surface 124-2 of the second reflection cup 124.
The first connection pad 126 may be spaced apart a predetermined distance (D4) from each of the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124, and the bottom 103 of the body 110 formed of polyphthalamide may be disposed between the first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124.
The second connection pad 128 may be spaced apart a predetermined distance from each of the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124, and the bottom 103 of the body 110 formed of polyphthalamide may be disposed between the first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124.
A slope angle (θ1) of the side surface of the first reflection cup 122 may be identical to or different from a slope angle of the body cavity 105. For example, the angle (θ1) between the side surface and the bottom of the first reflection cup 122 may be 90° ̃160°.
An angle (θ2) between the side surface 102 and the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may be 140° ̃170% An upper end of the side surface 102 of the body cavity 105 may be bent. In other words, the body cavity 105 may include a rim portion 804 positioned between a top surface 802 and the bottom 103 of the body 110, with stepped from the top surface 802 of the body 110 in horizontal with the top surface 802.
The thickness (T11) of the first reflection cup 122 may be 200 um ̃300 um. For example, the thickness of each of the bottom 122-1, the side surface 122-2 and the top surface 122-3 composing the first reflection cup 122 may be 200 um ̃300 um. The thickness (T21) of the second reflection cup 124 may be 200 um ̃300 um. For example, the thickness of the bottom 124-1, the side surface 124-2 and the top surface 124-3 composing the second reflection cup 124 may be 200 um ̃300 um.
The thickness 142 of the exposed end of the first reflection cup 122 toward the first side surface 210 of the body 110 may be 0.2 mm ̃0.3 mm. The thickness 144 of the exposed end of the second reflection cup 124 toward the second side surface 220 of the body 110 may be 0.2 mm ̃0.3 mm.
The top surface 122-3 of the first reflection cup 122 and the top surface 124-3 of the second reflection cup 124 may be in parallel with the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105. The top surfaces of the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may be in parallel to the top surfaces of the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124. However, the embodiment may not be limited thereby. The bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may be higher than the top surface 122-3 of the first reflection cup 122, the top surface 124-3 of the second reflection cup 124 and the top surfaces of the first and second connection pads 126 and 128.
The thickness (T31) of the first connection pad 126 may be 200 um ̃300 um. The thickness (T32) of the exposed end 146 of the first connection pad 126 toward the outside may be 0.2 mm ̃0.3 mm. The thickness (T41) of the second connection pad 128 may be 200 um ̃300 um. The thickness (T42) of the end 148 of the second connection pad 128 toward the outside of the body 110 may be 0.2 mm ̃0.3 mm.
In the light emitting device package according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, the body cavity 105 may be filled with an encapsulation material 820, to encapsulate and protect the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134.
The encapsulation material 820 may fill not only in the body cavity 105 but also in the first reflection cup 122 having the first light emitting device 132 mounted therein and the second reflection cup 124 having the second light emitting device 134 mounted therein to isolate the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from the outside. In other words, the encapsulation material 820 may cover the body, the first reflection cup, the second reflection cup, the first connection pad and the blocking partition wall.
The encapsulation material 820 may be formed of silicon or resin. After silicon or resin fills in the body cavity 105, the silicon or resin may be hardened to form the encapsulation material 820 and the embodiment is not limited thereby.
The encapsulation material 820 may include a phosphor to change characteristics of the lights emitted from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134. The phosphor may enable excitation of the lights emitted from the light emitting devices 132 and 134, to realize different color lights.
For example, if the light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be blue light emitting diodes and the phosphor is a yellow light luminescence material, the yellow light of the yellow phosphor may be in excitation because of the blue light and a white light may be generated after that. When the light emitting devices 132 and 134 emit ultraviolet rays, R, G and B phosphors may be added to the encapsulation material 820 to realize a white light. Here, a lens (not shown) may be formed on the encapsulation material 820 to adjust distribution of the lights emitted from the light emitting device package 100.
To block the light interference between the light emitting devices 132 and 134 and to improve light reflection efficiency, the height (H1) of the first reflection cup 122 and the height of the second reflection cup 124 may be determined in consideration of the heights of the light emitting devices 132 and 134. Here, the height of the first reflection cup 122 may be identical to that of the second reflection cup 124.
FIG. 11 illustrates serial connection according to an embodiment between the light emitting devices provided in the light emitting device package. In reference to FIG. 11, an end of a first wire 1052 may be bonded with the top surface 122-3 of the first reflection cup 122 and the other end of the first wire 1052 may be bonded with the first light emitting device 132. An end of a second wire 1054 may be bonded with the first light emitting device and the other end of the second wire 1054 may be bonded with the first connection pad 126.
An end of a third wire 1056 may be bonded with the first connection pad 126 and the other end of the third wire 1056 may be bonded with the second light emitting device 134. Also, an end of a fourth wire 1058 may be bonded with the second light emitting device 134 and the other end of the fourth wire 1058 may be bonded with the top surface 124-3 of the second reflection cup 134.
For example, one of the first and second electrodes 12 and 14 may be electrically connected with the first reflection cup 122 and one of the third and fourth electrodes 16 and 18 may be electrically connected with the second reflection cup 124. The first connection pad 126 may electrically connect the other one of the first and second electrodes 12 and 14 with the other one of the third and fourth electrodes 16 and 18.
The serial connection between the light emitting devices 132 and 134 shown in FIG. 11 may be enabled by means of the connection pads 126 independent from the light emitting devices 132 and 134. Because of that, the first light emitting device 132 and the second light emitting device 134 may be securely connected with each other in serial and electrical reliability of the light emitting device package may be enhanced accordingly.
FIG. 12 illustrates parallel connection according to an embodiment between the light emitting devices provided in the light emitting device package. In reference to FIG. 12, an end of a first wire 1152 may be bonded with the top surface 122-3 of the first reflection cup 132 and the other end of the first wire 1152 may be bonded with the first light emitting device 132.
An end of a second wire 1154 may be bonded with the first light emitting device 132 and the other end of the second wire 1154 may be bonded with the top surface 124-3 of the second reflection cup 134. An end of a third wire 1156 may be bonded with the top surface 122-1 of the first reflection cup 132 and the other end of the third wire 1156 may be bonded with the second light emitting device 134. At this time, each predetermined area of the second and third wires 1154 and 1156 may be positioned on the blocking partition wall 680.
Lastly, an end of a fourth wire 1158 may be bonded with the second light emitting device 134 and the other end of the fourth wire 1158 may be bonded with the top surface 124-1 of the second reflection cup 134. As a result, the light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be electrically connected with each other in parallel by the bonding with the first to fourth wires 1154 to 1158.
For example, one of the first and second electrodes 12 and 14 may be electrically connected with the first reflection cup 122. One of the third and fourth electrodes 16 and 18 may be electrically connected with the second reflection cup 124. The other one of the first and second electrode 12 and 14 may be electrically connected with the second reflection cup 124. The other end of the third and fourth electrodes 18 may be electrically connected with the first reflection cup 122.
FIG. 13 illustrates serial connection according to another embodiment between the light emitting devices of the light emitting device package. In reference to FIG. 13, an end of a first wire 1252 may be bonded with the top surface 122-1 of the first reflection cup 132 and the other end of the first wire 1252 may be bonded with the first light emitting device 132. An end of a second 1154 may be bonded with the first light emitting device 132 and the other end of the second wire 1154 may be directly bonded with the second light emitting device 134. At this time, a predetermined area of the second wire 1154 may be positioned on the blocking partition wall 680.
An end of a third wire 1156 may be connected with the second light emitting device and the other end of the third wire may be bonded with the top surface 124-1 of the second reflection cup 134.
For example, one of the first and second electrodes 12 and 14 may be electrically connected with the first reflection cup 122. One of the third and fourth electrodes 16 and 18 may be electrically connected with the second reflection cup 124. The other one of the first and second electrode 12 and 14 may be electrically connected with the other one of the third and fourth electrodes 16 and 18.
The light emitting devices 132 and 134 shown in FIG. 13 may be electrically connected with each other in serial by the bonding with the first to third wires 1252 to 1256. Different from FIG. 11, the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be directly connected with each other by the second wire 1254, not by means of the connection pad 126.
Each height of the wires bonded with the first reflection cup 122, the second reflection cup 124, the first light emitting device 132, the second light emitting device 134 and the zenor diode 150, respectively, may be smaller than the height of the top surface 106 of the body cavity 105.
According to the embodiment, the light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be mounted in the two reflection cups 122 and 124 separately provided in the body, respectively, not the single cup type light emitting device package. Because of that, the light emitting devices 132 and 134 that are the heat sources may be separated from each other and the reflection cups 122 and 124 may block the heat emitted from the light emitting devices 132 and 134, to prevent discoloration of the body 110 provided in the light emitting device package 100 and to extend the life span of the light emitting device package 100 accordingly. Also, the two reflection cups 122 and 124 separated from each other may prevent the lights emitted thereby from interfering with each other.
FIG. 14 illustrating a light emitting device package 100-2 according to a further embodiment. The same numeral references given to component parts of FIG. 14 as FIG. 1 will refer to the same component parts. Repeated description with respect to the description mentioned above will be omitted or made in brief. Connection between wires 1252, 1254 and 1258 shown in FIG. 14 may be the serial connection shown in FIG. 13.
In reference to FIG. 14, the light emitting device package 100-2 may include a body 110, a first reflection cup 122, a second reflection cup 124, a first connection pad 126, a second reflection cup 128, a first light emitting device 132, a second light emitting device 134, a zenor diode 150, the wires 1252, 1254 and 1258 and a blocking partition wall 680-1.
The blocking partition wall 680-1 may be similar to the blocking partition wall 680 shown in FIG. 1.
The blocking partition wall 680-1 may include a first region 682 having a different height from the height of the other region. The height of the first region 682 may be lower than the height of the other region of the blocking partition wall 680-1. That is, the first region 682 may be recess-shaped. For example, the blocking partition wall 680-1 may have a first recess 682. The first recess 682 may be recessed from a top surface of the blocking partition wall 680-1, with being open from a side to the other opposite side of the blocking partition wall 680-1. For example, the first recess 682 may be a top that is open toward both of the first and second reflection cups 122 and 124. The first recess 682 may be aligned with a second electrode 14 of the first light emitting device 132 mounted in the first reflection cup 122 and a first electrode 16 of the second light emitting device 134 mounted in the second reflection cup 124. The first recess 682 may expose a bottom 103 of a cavity 105 or not.
The first wire 1252 may electrically connect the first reflection cup 122 with the first electrode 12 of the first light emitting device 122. The fourth wire 1258 may electrically connect the second reflection cup 124 with the second electrode 18 of the second light emitting device 124.
The second wire 1254 may electrically connect the second electrode 14 of the first light emitting device 122 with a third electrode of the second light emitting device 124. The second wire 1254 may connect the second electrode 14 with the third electrode 13 via the first recess 682. In other words, the second wire 1254 may be disposed in the first recess 682 partially. The second wire 1254 may be in contact with a lower surface 603 of the first recess 682, spaced apart a predetermined distance from a side wall 601 of the first recess 682. Arrangement of the second wire 1254 passing the first recess 682 according to an embodiment will be shown in FIG. 19.
When the first light emitting device 122 and the second light emitting device 124 are connected with each other in serial by the wire, the wire has to be disposed beyond the blocking partition wall 680 and the wire has to be provided higher accordingly. The high wire happens to break disadvantageously.
However, the blocking partition wall 680-1 shown in FIG. 14 may include the first recess 682. Because of that, the height of the second wire 1254 may be smaller than the height of the blocking partition wall 680-1. This embodiment may prevent the second wire 1254 directly connecting the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from breaking easily.
FIG. 15 illustrates a light emitting device package 100-3 according to a further embodiment.
In reference to FIG. 15, a blocking partition wall 680-2 may be similar to the blocking partition wall 680-1 shown in FIG. 14.
The blocking partition wall 680-2 may include first and second regions 682-1 and 682-2 having a different height. Here, the first region 682-1 may be spaced apart a predetermined distance from the second region 682-2.
Each height of the first and second regions 682-1 and 682-2 may be smaller than the height of the other region of the blocking partition wall 680-1. For example, the blocking partition wall 680-2 may include a first recess 682-1 and a second recess 682-2 that are spaced apart a predetermined distance from each other.
Each of the first and second recesses 682-1 and 682-2 may be recessed from a top surface of the blocking partition wall 680-2, with being open from a side to the other opposite side of the blocking partition wall 680-2. For example, top surfaces of the first and second recesses 682-1 and 682-2 may be open toward the first reflection cup 122 and the second reflection cup 124, respectively. Each of the first and second recesses 682-1 and 682-2 may be inclined recesses having a proper slope with respect to the side surface of the blocking partition wall 680-2. The first and second recesses 682-1 and 682-2 may expose the bottom 103 of the cavity or not.
A first wire 1152 may electrically connect the first reflection cup 122 with a first electrode 12 of the first light emitting device 122 and a fourth wire 1158 may electrically connect the second reflection cup 124 with a second electrode 18 of the second light emitting device 124.
A second wire 1154 may electrically connect the second electrode 14 of the first light emitting device 122 with the second reflection cup 124 via the second recess 682-2 and a third wire 1156 may electrically connect a third electrode 16 of the second light emitting device 124 with the first reflection cup 122 via the first recess 682-1.
That is, the second wire 1154 may be partially disposed in the second recesses 682-1 and the third wire 1156 may be partially disposed in the first recess 682-1. The second wire 1154 may be in contact with a lower surface of the second recess 682-2, spaced apart a predetermined distance from a side wall of the second recess 682-2. Also, the third wire 1156 may be in contact with a lower surface of the first recess 682-1, spaced apart a predetermined distance from a side wall of the first recess 682-1.
FIG. 16 illustrates a light emitting device package 100-4 according to a still further embodiment. The same numeral references given to component parts of FIG. 16 as FIG. 1 will refer to the same component parts. Repeated description with respect to the description mentioned above will be omitted or made in brief.
In reference to FIG. 16, a blocking partition wall 680 according to this embodiment may be formed of a reflective material capable of reflecting a light. When the blocking partition wall 680 and a body 110 are formed of the same material, reflective layers 685-1 and 685-2 may be disposed on side surfaces of the blocking partition wall 680. For example, a first reflective layer 685-1 may be disposed on a side of the blocking partition wall 680-1 that faces the first reflection cup 122 and a second reflective layer 685-2 may be disposed on a side of the blocking partition wall 680-1 that faces the second reflection cup 124.
The reflective layer 685-1 and 685-2 may be formed of metal including at least one of Ag, Ni, Al, Rh, Pd, Ir, Ru, Mg, Zn, Pt, Au and Hf or alloy of them.
Also, the reflective layer 685-1 and 685-2 may be distributed Bragg reflective layers. For example, the reflective layer 685-1 and 685-2 may have the first and second layers alternatively multilayered at least one time. At this time, the first layer may include a semiconductor layer such as AlGaAs or a dielectric material such as TiO2. The second layer may include a semiconductor layer such as AlAs or a dielectric material such as SiO2. For example, the reflective layer 685-1 and 685-2 may be a distributed Bragg reflective layer having an AlGaAs/AlAs layer or a TiO2/SiO2 layer multilayered at least one time. The reflective layer 685-1 and 685-2 may block interference of lights emitted from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 with each other and enhance efficiency of light extraction performed by the light emitting device package simultaneously.
FIG. 17 illustrates a light emitting device package 100-5 according to a still further embodiment.
