The die-carrying frame 802 is exposed to the die-bonding area 812. The isolating body 808 is formed by inject molding and arranged at the fringe of the first lead frame 800, the die-carrying frame 802 and the second lead frame 804.
The LED die 806 is placed on the die-carrying frame 802 and electrically connected to the first lead frame 800 and the second lead frame 804 through the wires 810 (such as bonding lines). The transparent adhesive 814 is disposed within the die-bonding area 812 to cover the LED die 806 and to protect the wires 810.
Accordingly, the first lead frame 800, the die-carrying frame 802, the second lead frame 804, the isolating body 808 and the transparent adhesive 814 collectively and air-tightly cover the LED die 806.

Moreover, the volume of the isolating body 808 is the major cause accounted for the size-down difficulty the light emitting semiconductor element. Furthermore, the resin of manufacturing the isolating body 808 will age as time elapses and reliable issue accordingly arises.

For the convenience of following description, the grooves 200 are, but not limited to, simultaneously penetrate the second electrically conductive layers 202 and the intermediary layer 204. In addition, the first electrically conductive layer 20 may be separated into a plurality of electrically conductive units 21 by the grooves 200, as shown in FIG. 3F.
It should be noted that when the first electrically conductive layer 20 is separated into a plurality of independent blocks, each block is referred to as electrically conductive unit 21 in following description.

After that, a plurality of light emitting semiconductor dies 30 are placed on the first electrically conductive layer 20 and electrically connected thereto, as shown 31. The grooves 200 are partially exposed to the light emitting semiconductor dies 30, as shown in FIG. 3J. Each light emitting semiconductor die 30 includes a plurality of semiconductor layers 310 and two connecting pads 308a and 308b. In this embodiment, the semiconductor layers 310 for emitting blue light and include a substrate 300, an N-type gallium nitride 302, a multiple quantum well 304 and a P-type gallium nitride 306 disposed in sequence.

As shown in FIG. 3K to FIG. 3N, a light transmitting layer 34 is formed for covering the light emitting semiconductor dies 30, and then is eliminated with partial first electrically connective layer 20, thus the first electrically conductive layer 20 is separated into a plurality of electrically conductive units 21. The light emitting semiconductor dies 30 are electrically connected in parallel or series through the electrically conductive units 21. The light transmitting layer 21 compactly covers the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 and fills within the grooves 200 under the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 through the grooves 200 exposed to the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 and links the electrically conductive units 21. The light transmitting layer 34 is preferably made of light-pervious isolating material for providing good electrically isolating effect. As shown in FIG. 3K and 3L, the light transmitting layer 34 covers the light emitting semiconductor dies 30, respectively, thus each light emitting semiconductor die 30 is of single-chip package type. The light transmitting layer 34 covering each light emitting semiconductor die 30 is substantially of hemisphere shape for effectively enhancing light extracting effect. As shown in FIG. 3M and FIG. 3N, the light transmitting layer 34 simultaneously covers the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 and the electrically conductive units 21, thus the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 are of multi-chip package type. The distance located between an upper surface of the light transmitting layer 34 and the electrically conductive unit 21 is gradually decreased along a direction away from the light emitting semiconductor dies 30, thus the light transmitting layer 34 covering each light emitting semiconductor die 30 is substantially of hemisphere shape for effectively enhancing light extracting effect.
The light transmitting layer 34 may be formed by molding, dispensing or placing lens. The electrically conductive units 21 may be formed with a dam 32 surrounding the light emitting semiconductor die 20 thereon when the light transmitting layer 30 is formed by dispensing, as shown in FIG. 3O. The dam 32 is used to provide space-limiting, thus the light transmitting layer 34 is of hemisphere shape for effectively enhancing light extracting effect.
Moreover, in the embodiment that the first electrically conductive layer 21 is separated into multiple electrically conductive units 21 through the grooves 200, a surface area of the electrically conductive units 21 must be larger than a surface area of the light emitting semiconductor die 30. Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 3P and 3Q, the light transmitting layer 34 simultaneously covers the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 and the fringe of the electrically conductive units 21 for providing preferable electrically isolating effect. The distance of the upper surface of the light transmitting layer and the electrically conductive units is uniform.
As shown in FIG. 3R, the distance of the upper surface of the light transmitting layer 34 and the electrically conductive units 21 is gradually decreased along a direction away from the light emitting semiconductor dies 30, thus the light transmitting layer 34 covering the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 is substantially of hemisphere shape for effectively enhancing light extracting effect. In addition, the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 may be electrically connected in parallel or series through the electrically conductive units 21, as shown in FIG. 3S. The electrically connecting type shown in the FIG. 3S is only for one example and not the limitation of the protection scope.

The wavelength-converting matter 36 may be phosphor, quantum dot phosphor quantum well film. The light emitted from the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 passes through the wavelength-converting matter 36, and is converted into wavelength-converted light. In this embodiment, the light emitting from each light emitting semiconductor die 30 is blue, and the wavelength-converted light is yellow. The wavelength-converting matter 36 coverts a part of light emitted from the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 into wavelength-converted light (yellow light), which is to be mixed with other blue light emitted from the light emitting semiconductor dies 30 to generate white light. The wavelength-converting matter 36 may be placed near the light emitting semiconductor die 30, as shown in FIG. 3T, and the wavelength-converting matter 36 may be placed in front of the light transmitting layer 34, and cover the light emitting semiconductor die 30. Namely, the wavelength-converting matter is placed close to the light emitting semiconductor dies 30. The wavelength-converting matter 36, however, may be placed on the light transmitting layer 34 after forming the light transmitting layer 34 on the light emitting semiconductor dies 30. Namely, the wavelength-converting matter 36 is placed far from the light emitting semiconductor die 30, as shown in FIG. 3U. The wavelength-converting matter 36 may also place within the light transmitting layer 34 uniformly, as shown in FIG. 3V.

In addition, each two electrically conductive units 21 are not electrically connected to each other for preventing the light emitting semiconductor from short circuit.
As shown in FIG. 3W, the surface area of the electrically conductive unit 21 is larger than the area of the electrically conductive unit 21 covering with the light transmitting layer 34. In addition, the isolating layer 24 may be removed and the electrically conductive unit 21 is bent for the function of convenient insertion, as shown in FIG. 3X.
