DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the annexed drawings.
It will be understood that, when an element is referred to as being ‘on’ or “under” another element, it can be directly on/under the element, and one or more intervening elements may also be present. When an element is referred to as being ‘on’ or ‘under’, ‘under the element’ as well as ‘on the element’ can be included based on the element.
FIG. 1 illustrates a section of a light emitting device package in accordance with a first embodiment, and FIG. 2 illustrates an enlarged view of the ‘A’ part in FIG. 1.
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the light emitting device package includes an insulating layer 110, one pair of lead frames 120a and 120b disposed on the insulating layer 110 electrically separate from each other, a light emitting device 100 disposed opposite to the insulating layer 110 with respect to the one pair of lead frames 120a and 120b respectively connected to the one pair of lead frames 120a and 120b, and a lens which encloses the light emitting device 100.
The light emitting device 100 is disposed on the second lead frame 120b. Since the second lead frame 120b is fabricated in a fabrication process the same with the first lead frame 120a, the second lead frame 120b is formed of a conductive material, but the second lead frame 120b may be formed of a non-conductive material.
In these embodiments or other embodiments, the light emitting device 100 may be semiconductor light emitting device, for example light emitting diode.
The first and second lead frames 120a and 120b are formed of the conductive material, for an example, copper Cu, but separated electrically. The first and second lead frames 120a and 120b may be spaced 20 to 40 μm from each other. And, the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b may be formed of identical material separated from each other, electrically.
The first and second lead frames 120a and 120b may be formed of, for an example, copper Cu each at a thickness of 30 to 40 w. If the thickness each of the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b is too thin, a function of supporting the light emitting device 100 and so on may be inadequate, and, if the thickness of each of the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b is too thick, the too thick thicknesses of the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b may become a cause of thickness and mass increase of the light emitting device package.
Since the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b are supported by the insulating layer 110 at a region the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b are separated from each other, the insulating layer 110 is exposed.
The insulating layer 110 may be formed of an insulating material, such as polyimide, having good heat conductivity.
The insulating layer 110 may be formed at a thickness of 70 to 80 μm. If the thickness of the insulating layer 110 is too thin, a function of supporting the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b and so on may be inadequate, and, if the thickness of the insulating layer 110 is too thick, the too thick thickness of the insulating layer 110 may increase a thickness of the light emitting device package.
First and second reflective layers 130a and 130h are respectively disposed on the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b for reflecting a light from the light emitting device 100 to a front (Upper side in FIG. 1) of the light emitting device package to increase brightness.
The first and second reflective layers 130a and 130b are formed of a material having good reflectivity, for an example, a coat of silver Ag.
And, the light emitting device 100 is adhered to the second lead frame 120b with an adhesive layer 140 of a conductive or non-conductive material. The light emitting device 100 is connected to the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b with first and second wires 150a and 150b, electrically.
Though FIG. 1 illustrates the light emitting device 100 in contact with the second reflective layer 130b, the light emitting device 100 may be in direct contact with the second reflective layer 130b. Though FIG. 1 illustrates the first and second wires 150a and 150b in contact with the first and second reflective layers 130a and 130b, the first and second wires 150a and 150b may be in direct contact with the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b, respectively.
The lens 180 encloses the light emitting device 100 and the first and second wires 150a and 150b. Though not shown, a resin layer may be disposed to enclose the light emitting device 100 and the first and second wires 150a and 150b, and the resin layer may include a fluorescent material to change a wavelength of the light from the light emitting device 100.
The lens 180 is formed of a material having good light transmissivity, such as PMMA (PolyMethylMethAcrylate), PC (PolyCarbonate), and PE (PolyEthylene; PE), or injection molded resin.
A region matched to an edge of the lens 180, i.e., the insulating layer 110 is projected beyond the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b. 
Referring to FIG. 1, a region in the ‘A’ part where the insulating layer 110 and the first lead frame 120a are coupled may be called as a ‘coupled portion’ which is best seen in FIG. 2. As shown in FIG. 2, though an edge of the lens 180 is matched with an edge of the insulating layer 110, the edge of the lens 180 may be positioned at an inner side of the insulating layer 110. A distance d from the edge of the lens 180 to the edge of the edge of the first lead frame 120a may be 90 ̃110 μm. If the distance d is too short, a lens 180 sealing effect is liable to be low, and if too long, a size of the light emitting device package is liable to become larger.
The coupled portion may be positioned on an outside of the edge of the first lead frame 120a and on the insulating layer 110. In FIG. 1, the coupled portion at a right region may position at an outside of the second lead frame 120b. In this instance, the insulating layer 110 may be disposed projected 90 ̃110 μm from the edge of the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b, respectively.
Though not shown, one pair of circuit boards may be disposed on an upper side of the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b for supplying a current to the light emitting device 100.
FIGS. 3 to 7 illustrate sections showing the steps of a method for fabricating the light emitting device package in FIG. 1 in accordance with an embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 3, an insulating layer 110 of polyimide is provided, and, as shown in FIG. 4, a conductive layer material 120 is disposed on the insulating layer 110 by laminating or the like. In this instance, the conductive layer material 120 is disposed such that an edge of the insulating layer 110 is projected beyond an edge of the conductive layer material 120.
Referring to FIG. 5, the conductive layer material 120 is patterned to form first and second lead frames 120a and 120b by performing etching and isolation with photolithography.
After the etching and isolation, referring to FIG. 6, the first and second frames 120a and 120b are patterned with masks 300a, and 300b. 
Referring to FIG. 7, reflective layers 130a and 130b are disposed on the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b by using plating of silver Ag or the like. And, a light emitting device 100 is bonded to the second lead frame 120b with an adhesive layer 140. And, the light emitting device 100 is connected to the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b with first and second wires 150a and 150b, electrically.
FIG. 8 illustrates a section showing a state in which a light emitting device package in FIG. 1 is coupled to a heat dissipation layer.
The heat dissipation layer 170 is formed of a material having good heat conductivity, such as aluminum Al, for dissipating heat from the light emitting device 100 downward through the heat dissipation layer 170 via the second lead frame 120b. 
Though not shown, since circuit boards may be disposed on an upper side of the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b, and the heat from the circuit boards may be dissipated to an upper side in FIG. 8, the heat from the light emitting device 100 and the circuit boards can be respectively dissipated, smoothly. And, since a package body is omitted and the circuit boards are disposed on an upper side of the lead frames, a thickness of the light emitting device package may become thinner.
FIG. 9 illustrates an enlarged view showing an edge of the insulating layer in the light emitting device package in FIG. 1 in accordance with another embodiment.
The embodiment suggests rounding of edge regions B of the first lead frame 120a and the first reflective layer 130a. And, an end of the lens 180 may not be matched with an end of the insulating layer 110.
FIG. 10 illustrates an enlarged view showing an effect of the light emitting device package in FIG. 1.
FIG. 10A illustrates an enlarged view of an edge of a related art light emitting device package showing that moisture or air may infiltrate through a gap between the insulating layer 110 and the first lead frame 120a. 
FIG. 10B illustrates an enlarged view of an edge of a light emitting device package in accordance with an embodiment showing that, since the lens 180 seals a coupled region of the insulating layer 110 and the first lead frame 120a, the moisture or air can not infiltrate through a gap between the insulating layer 110 and the first lead frame 120a, thereby preventing performance of the light emitting device package from becoming poor.
That is, the light emitting device package in accordance with the embodiment has the insulating layer in contact with the first lead frame 120a and the second lead frame 120b. In this instance, since the insulating layer is projected further from a region of the contact, with the end of the lens disposed at a region of the projection such that the lens encloses and seals an adhered region of the insulating layer and the first and second lead frames 120a and 120b, infiltration of foreign matter thereto is prevented.
FIG. 11 illustrates a section of a light emitting device package in accordance with a second embodiment, and FIG. 12 illustrates an enlarged view of the ‘A’ part in FIG. 11.
Referring to FIGS. 11 and 12, the light emitting device package has three lead frames 220a, 220b, and 220c, wherein the second and third lead frames 220b and 220c may be connected to each other, and the second lead frame 220 has a concave part having a light emitting device disposed therein.
The light emitting device package in accordance with the embodiment includes first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d, lead frames 220a, 220b, and 220c disposed on the first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d separate from one another electrically, a light emitting device 100 connected to one pair of the lead frames 220a and 220c disposed opposite to the first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d with respect to the lead frames 220a, 220b, and 220c, and a lens which encloses the light emitting device 100.
The light emitting device 100 is disposed over the third lead frame 220b, and the light emitting device 100 is disposed at the concave part of the third lead frame 220b. Since the third lead frame 220b is fabricated in a process the same with the first, and second lead frame 220a, and 220c, and formed of a conductive material the same with the first, and second lead frame 220a, and 220c, but, the lead frames may be formed of a non-conductive material.
The first and second lead frames 220a and 220c are formed of a conductive material, such as copper Cu, and separate from each other, electrically. And, since the first, and second lead frames 220a, and 220c are formed of a material the same with the third lead frame 220b in the fabrication process, it is required that the first, and second lead frames 220a, and 220, are separated from the third lead frame 220c electrically for preventing the third frame 220b from short circuiting to the first, and second lead frames 220a, and 220c. 
The first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d are separated into at least two, wherein the third lead frame 220b may be separated taking the concave part as a boundary. And, the first insulating layer 210a and the second insulating layer 210b may not be separated from each other necessarily, and the third insulating layer 210c and the fourth insulating layer 210c may not be separated from each other, necessarily.
Since the first lead frame 220a and the third lead frame 220c are supported by the second insulating layer 210b at a region the first lead frame 220a and the third lead frame 220c are separated from each other, the second insulating layer 210b is exposed.
The first lead frame 220a and the third lead frame 220c may be spaced 20 to 40 μm from each other, and the second insulating layer 210b may be exposed as much as the space. The second lead frame 220b and the third lead frame 220c may be spaced 20 to 40 μm from each other, and the third insulating layer 210c may be exposed as much as the space. And, the third lead frame 220b may have a width of about 2.39 mm with 10% tolerance. Since the second lead frame 220c and the third lead frame 220b are supported by the third insulating layer 210c at a region the second lead frame 220c and the third lead frame 220b are separated from each other, the third insulating layer 210c is exposed. The first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d may be formed of an insulating material, such as polyimide. And, the first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d may be formed of a material having good heat conductivity.
The first, second, and third lead frames 220a, 220c, and 220b have the first, second, and the third reflective layers 230a, 230c, and 230b disposed thereon respectively, for reflecting a light from the light emitting device 100 toward a front side of the light emitting device package (Upper side in FIG. 11) for increasing brightness.
The first, second, and the third reflective layers 230a, 230c, and 230b are formed of a material having a good reflectivity, for an example, a coat of silver Ag.
And, the light emitting device 100 is adhered to the third lead frame 100 with an adhesive layer 230a, 230b of a conductive or non-conductive material. The light emitting device 100 is connected to the first, and second lead frames 220a, and 220c with first and second wires 100a and 100b, electrically.
Though FIG. 11 illustrates that the light emitting device 100 is in contact with the third reflective layer 230b, the light emitting device 100 may be in direct contact with the third lead frame 220b. Though FIG. 11 illustrates that the first and second wires 100a and 100b are in contact with the first, and second reflective layers 230a, and 230c, the first and second wires 100a and 100b may be in direct contact with the first, and second lead frames 220a, and 220c, respectively.
The lens 280 is disposed to enclose the light emitting device 100 and the first and second wires 100a and 100b. Though not shown, a resin layer (Not shown) may be molded to enclose the light emitting device 100 and the first and second wires 100a and 100b. The resin layer may include a fluorescent material to change a wavelength of the light from the light emitting device 100.
The lens 280 may be identical to the one described with reference to FIG. 1.
Referring to FIG. 12, though the lens 280 has an end matched with an end of the first insulating layer 210a, the lens 80 may have an edge positioned at an inner side of the first insulating layer 210a. A distance d between the edge of the first insulating layer 210a and the edge of the first lead frame 220a may be 90 ̃110 μm. If the distance d is too short, a lens 280 sealing effect to be described later is not adequate, and if too long, a size of the light emitting device package may increase.
FIGS. 13 to 18 illustrate sections showing the steps of a method for fabricating the light emitting device package in FIG. 11 in accordance with an embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 13, polyimide 210 is patterned to form first to fourth insulating layers 210a to 210d by punching.
Referring to FIGS. 14 to 16, a conductive layer material 220 is laminated and patterned with masks 300a to 300c to form first to third lead frames 220a, 220c, and 220b.

FIG. 19 illustrates a section showing a light emitting device package in FIG. 11 coupled with a heat dissipation layer 270, and a function of the light emitting device package is the same with the description made with reference to FIG. 8. Alike the embodiment described before, the heat dissipation layer 270 may be formed of a material having good heat conductivity, such as copper Cu or aluminum Al.
And, a detailed structure and an effect of the insulating layer of the light emitting device package in FIG. 11 are the same with the light emitting device package described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10.
FIG. 20 illustrates a section of a light emitting device package in accordance with a third embodiment, and FIG. 21 illustrates an exploded perspective view of the light emitting device package in FIG. 20.
Referring to FIG. 20, the light emitting device package may include first lead frame 220a and second lead frame 220b spaced from each other, a concave part C disposed at a region of the second lead frame 220b, a light emitting device 100 disposed in the concave part C of the second lead frame 220b, a reflective layer 230a, 230b disposed on the first lead frame 220a and the second lead frame 220b, a resin layer 250 disposed on the light emitting device 100 at the concave part C of the second lead frame 220b to include a fluorescent material, a lens 280 on the resin layer 250 and the reflective layer 220, a polymer protective film 245 disposed on an underside of an edge of the lens 280, and an insulating layer 210 on an underside of the first lead frame 220a and the second lead frame 220b. 
The polymer protective film 245 may include, but not limited to, solder resist. For an example, the polymer protective film 245 may include, but not limited to, PSR (Photo Solder Resist) or white solder resist.
The concave part C of the second lead frame 220b may be, but not limited to, a down-set region or a bend region at a region of the second lead frame 220b. 
According to the embodiment, by forming the concave part C at the second lead frame 220b with down-set, and mounting the light emitting device 100 thereon, structural stability can be enhanced.
And, according to the embodiment, by forming the concave part C at the second lead frame 220b, mounting the light emitting device 100 thereon, and forming the resin layer 250 including a fluorescent material thereon, enabling to form an encapsulation including the fluorescent material in a dome shape, a uniform color temperature can be displayed enabling to improve color deviation.
For an example, since the embodiment can reduce an area of the fluorescent material by dotting the fluorescent material on the light emitting device 100 smaller than a system in which the fluorescent material is filled in an existing cup, the color deviation can be reduced to reduce Mura as well as a thickness of a set can be reduced.
And, according to the embodiment, the mounting of the light emitting diode on the concave part C of the second lead frame 220b, making a seating position of the light emitting device 100 lower enabling to minimize influence of thermal stress, permits to reduce yellow ring caused by the thermal stress.
And, since the embodiment has a groove H formed in the concave part C of the second lead frame 220b at a periphery of the resin layer 250, enabling to form the resin layer 250 including the fluorescent material in the dome shape, the color deviation can be reduced.
In the embodiment, the first lead frame 220a and the second lead frame 220b may be separate electrically by a spaced portion a, and a pass-through portion b disposed at the second lead frame 220b in symmetry to the spaced portion a makes the second lead frame 220b stable to the thermal stress.
The light emitting device 100 may be mounted to a mounting area of the concave part C with a die adhesive (Not shown), such as silicone epoxy, disposed thereon.
The light emitting device 100 may be connected to the reflective layer 230a, 230b with a wire. For an example, the light emitting device 100 may be connected to the first reflective layer 230a with the first wire 250a, and to the second reflective layer 230b with the second wire 250b. 
The embodiment intends to provide a light emitting device package and a lighting system of which reliability is improved.
Therefore, in the embodiment, the polymer protective film 245 is disposed on the underside of the periphery of the lens 280, enhancing coupling force between the lens 280 and the reflective layer 230a, 230b to enhance a sealing quality of a side portion of the lens, preventing infiltration of moisture thereto to prevent discoloring of the lead frame 220 and die adhesive, thereby increasing luminous efficiency to provide a light emitting device package and a lighting system of which reliability is improved.
And, according to the embodiment, the suppression of the deformation of the lens caused by the thermal stress with the polymer protective film 245 disposed on an underside of the periphery of the lens 280 preventing delamination of the lens to enhance a sealing quality of the moisture infiltration permits to provide a light emitting device package and a lighting system of which reliability is improved.
Eventually, the embodiment can improve reliability enabling to provide a light emitting device package and a lighting system of which luminous efficiency is improved.
In the first embodiment, the polymer protective film 245 may be disposed between the reflective layer 230a, 230b and the lens 280.
