     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     Embodiments relate to light emitting device packages. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Light emitting devices, such as Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) or Laser Diodes (LDs), which use group III-V or group II-VI compound semiconductors, are capable of emitting light of various colors, such as red, green, blue, and ultraviolet light and the like, owing to developments of device materials and thin film growth technologies. Moreover, these light emitting devices are capable of emitting white light with high efficiency through use of a fluorescent substance or color combination, and have advantages of low power consumption, semi-permanent lifespan, fast response time, safety and environmental friendliness as compared to conventional light sources, such as fluorescent lamps, incandescent lamps and the like. 
     Accordingly, application sectors of light emitting devices are expanded up to transmitting modules of optical communication means, LED backlights to replace Cold Cathode Fluorescence Lamps (CCFLs) which serve as backlights of Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) apparatuses, white LED lighting apparatuses to replace fluorescent lamps or incandescent lamps, head lights of vehicles and traffic lights. 
     A light emitting device package includes a first electrode and a second electrode arranged over a package body and a light emitting device arranged at a lower surface of the package body and electrically connected to the first electrode and the second electrode. 
       FIG. 1  is a view illustrating a conventional light emitting device package. 
     The light emitting device package  100  may include package bodies  110   a ,  110   b , and  110   c , which internally define a cavity, and a light emitting device  140  placed on a bottom surface of the cavity. A heat dissipation member  130  may be placed in the package bodies  110   a  and  110   b  below the package body  110   c . The heat dissipation member  130  and the light emitting device  140  may be fixed via a conductive adhesive layer (not shown). 
     The cavity is filled with a molding part  150  to surround and protect the light emitting device  140 . The molding part  150  may contain a fluorescent substance  160 . The fluorescent substance  160  is excited by a first wavelength band of light emitted from the light emitting device  140 , thereby emitting a second wavelength band of light. 
     However, the conventional light emitting device package has the following problems. 
     In  FIG. 1 , the heat dissipation member  130  may be formed of a highly thermally conductive material such that heat generated from the light emitting device  140  of the light emitting device package  100  is emitted through the heat dissipation member  130 . 
     In this case, if thermal expansion of the heat dissipation member  130  occurs, this may cause damage to the light emitting device  140 . For this reason, a ceramic layer  120 , for example, may be placed over the heat dissipation member  130  to prevent damage to the light emitting device  140  due to thermal expansion of the heat dissipation member  130 . 
     However, when the ceramic layer  120  is provided over the heat dissipation member  130 , stress may be applied to the ceramic layer  120  above the boundary of the heat dissipation member  130  and the package body  110   b  due to mismatch between the coefficient of thermal expansion of the heat dissipation member  130  and that of the package body  110   b  during a co-firing process for fabrication of a ceramic package. This may cause cracking in the ceramic layer  120  within the co-fired package as exemplarily shown in region ‘A’ of  FIG. 1 . That is, the ceramic layer  120  may be damaged by coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch between different kinds of materials, and deterioration in the hermetic seal durability of the light emitting device package  100  may cause lifespan reduction after extended operation or upon operation under high humidity environments.

     DESCRIPTION OF SPECIFIC EMBODIMENTS 
     Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the annexed drawings. 
     In the following description of the embodiments, it will be understood that, when each element is referred to as being formed “on” or “under” the other element, one element can be directly “on” or “under” the other element or the two elements can be indirectly formed with intervening one or more other elements therebetween. Also, it will also be understood that “on” or “under” one element may contain the meaning of upward or downward on the basis of the element. 
       FIG. 2  is a sectional view illustrating an embodiment of a light emitting device package. 
     The light emitting device package, designated by reference numeral  200 , according to the embodiment includes a package body consisting of a plurality of first ceramic layers  210   a ,  210   b ,  210   c  and  210   d . The package body may be realized using High Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (HTCC) or Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC) technologies. 
     In the case of the package body taking the form of a multilayered ceramic substrate, respective layers may have the same thickness or different thicknesses. The package body may be formed of an insulating material, such as nitrides or oxides. For example, the package body may be formed of SiO 2 , Si x O y , Si 3 N y , SiO x N y , Al 2 O 3 , or AlN. 
     The plurality of first ceramic layers  210   a ,  210   b ,  210   c , and  210   d  may have different widths. Some of the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b  may constitute the bottom of the light emitting device package  200  or the bottom of a cavity, and the other first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  may constitute a sidewall of the cavity. 
     At least one of a light emitting device may be arranged on a bottom surface of the cavity constituted of the plurality of ceramic layers as described above. In the present embodiment, two light emitting devices  204   a  and  240   b  are arranged. The cavity may be filled with a molding part (not shown) to surround the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  and wires  245   a  and  245   b . The molding part may contain a silicon resin or fluorescent substance (not shown), although the disclosure is not limited thereto. The fluorescent substance may convert a first wavelength band of light emitted from the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  into a second longer-wavelength band of light. For example, if a first wavelength band is an ultraviolet band, a second wavelength band may be a visible light band. If the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  emit ultraviolet light, more specifically, near-ultraviolet light or deep-ultraviolet light, the molding part may contain no fluorescent substance. Ultraviolet light may be electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 10 nm to 397 nm. More particularly, ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 290 nm to 397 nm may be referred to as near-ultraviolet light, and ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 190 nm to 290 nm may be referred to as deep-ultraviolet light. 
     Metal may be deposited or plated on the molding part such that the molding part  250  is coupled to a glass cap or lid using Eutectic bonding, welding, or the like to achieve a hermetic seal. Alternatively, the molding part  250  may be stepped similar to the plurality of first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  such that an anti-reflective coated glass plate may be bonded to a stepped recess using an adhesive (e.g., UV setting adhesive bonding, or thermosetting adhesive bonding) to achieve a hermetic seal. 
     In a case of UV light emitting device, deterioration and discoloration may be caused to the molding part. So, phosphor film or phosphor plate having a resistance to UV may be formed instead of the molding part. 
     Light emitting devices may include Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) using multiple compound semiconductor layers, for example, group III-V semiconductor layers. These light emitting devices may be colored light emitting devices to emit blue, green, or red light, or may be UV light emitting devices to emit ultraviolet (UV) light. 
     The above-described light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  may be vertical light emitting devices or horizontal light emitting devices. Each light emitting device  240   a  or  240   b  may include a light emitting structure that consists of a first conductive type semiconductor layer, an active layer, and a second conductive type semiconductor layer. 
     The first conductive type semiconductor layer may be formed of a semiconductor compound, for example, group III-V or group II-VI compound semiconductors. Additionally, a first conductive dopant may be doped. If The first conductive type semiconductor layer is an n-type semiconductor layer, the first conductive dopant is an n-type dopant including Si, Ge, Sn, Se and Te, although the disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     The first conductive type semiconductor layer may be provided alone or along with an undoped semiconductor layer therebelow, although the disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     The undoped semiconductor layer serves to improve crystallization of The first conductive type semiconductor layer. The undoped semiconductor layer may be equal to The first conductive type semiconductor layer, except for the fact that the undoped semiconductor layer is not doped with the n-type dopant, and thus has lower electric conductivity than The first conductive type semiconductor layer. 
     The active layer may be formed on The first conductive type semiconductor layer. The active layer serves to emit light having energy determined by an intrinsic energy-band of a constituent material thereof (i.e. a light emitting material) via combination of electrons introduced through The first conductive type semiconductor layer and holes introduced through The second conductive type semiconductor layer that will be formed later. 
     The active layer may have at least any one of a double hetero junction structure, a single well structure, a multiple well structure, a quantum-wire structure, or a quantum-dot structure. For example, the active layer may have a multiple quantum well structure via injection of trimethylgallium gas (TMGa), ammonia gas (NH 3 ), nitrogen gas (N 2 ), and trimethylindium gas (TMIn), although the disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     The active layer may include a well layer and a barrier layer, which have at least one pair configuration of InGaN/GaN, InGaN/InGaN, GaN/AlGaN, InAlGaN/GaN, GaAs(InGaAs)/AlGaAs, and GaP(InGaP)/AlGaP, for example, although the disclosure is not limited thereto. The well layer may be formed of a material having a smaller band gap than that of the barrier layer. 
     A conductive clad layer (not shown) may be disposed on the active layer. The conductive clad layer may be formed of a semiconductor having a greater band gap than that of the barrier layer of the active layer. For example, the conductive clad layer may include GaN, AlGaN, InAlGaN, or super-lattice structure. In addition, the conductive clad layer may be an n-type or p-type doped layer. 
     The second conductive type semiconductor layer may be disposed on the active layer. The second conductive type semiconductor layer may be formed of a semiconductor compound, for example, group III-V compound semiconductors doped with a second conductive dopant. The second conductive type semiconductor layer may include, for example, a semiconductor material having a composition equation of In x Al y Ga 1-x-y N (0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1, 0≦x+y≦1). If The second conductive type semiconductor layer is a p-type semiconductor layer, the second conductive dopant is a p-type dopant including Mg, Zn, Ca, Sr, Ba, etc., although the disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     Alternatively, differently from the above description, The first conductive type semiconductor layer may include a p-type semiconductor layer, and The second conductive type semiconductor layer may include an n-type semiconductor layer. In addition, a third conductive semiconductor layer including an n-type or p-type semiconductor layer may be formed on the first conductive type semiconductor layer. As such, the above-described light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  may include at least any one of n-p, p-n, n-p-n, p-n-p junction structures. 
     In the present embodiment, the package body consists of the first ceramic layers  210   a ,  210   b ,  210   c  and  210   d  formed of inorganic materials. Even if the light emitting devices include deep-UV LEDs to emit UV light having a wavelength of about 280 nm, or near-UV LEDs to emit UV light having a wavelength of about 365˜405 nm, the package body is free from discoloration or decomposition due to UV light emitted from the light emitting devices, which enables maintenance of reliability of a light emitting module. 
     The present embodiment describes the package body as consisting of the four first ceramic layers  210   a ,  210   b ,  210   c  and  210   d  having the same thickness, the package body may consist of a greater number of first ceramic layers, and the respective first ceramic layers may have different thicknesses. 
     In  FIG. 2 , the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  are placed on a surface of the package body, and thermally contact to a heat dissipation member  230  through conductive adhesive layers  286   a  and  286   b  and a third ceramic layer  220 . The heat dissipation member  230  may be formed of a highly thermally conductive material, and more particularly formed of at least one of copper (Cu), tungsten (W) or copper tungsten (CuW). Although  FIG. 2  illustrates only one heat dissipation member  230 , two or more discrete heat dissipation members may be arranged. 
     The heat dissipation member  230  may be placed within the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b . The third ceramic layer  220  and a anti-fracture layer  270  may be sequentially placed above the heat dissipation member  230  and the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b . The anti-fracture layer  270  may be formed as a second ceramic layer. 
     The anti-fracture layer  270  may have a partial open region or a center open region. The aforementioned third ceramic layer  220  may be exposed through the open region, and the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  may be arranged on a partial exposed region of the third ceramic layer  220 . In this way, the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  may thermally come into contact with the heat dissipation member  230  through the third ceramic layer  220 . In addition, the anti-fracture layer  270  may overlap with at least a partial peripheral region of the heat dissipation member  230 . 
     The first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  comprise the sidewall of the cavity. Electric connection of the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  within the light emitting device package  200  will be described below. 
     A plurality of first electrode patterns  281   a  to  284   a  and a plurality of second electrode patterns  281   b  to  284   b  are arranged on the plurality of first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b , the third ceramic layer  220 , and the anti-fracture layer  270 . Connection electrodes  291   a  to  293   a  and  291   b  to  293   b  are respectively arranged between the first electrode patterns  281   a  to  284   a  and between the second electrode patterns  281   b  to  284   b.    
     Arrangement of electrodes and electrode patterns will now be described in detail. 
     The heat dissipation member  230  may be located within the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b , the anti-fracture layer  270  may be provided with a first bonding pad  285  and a second bonding pad  285   b , and the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  may be bonded respectively to the first bonding pad  285   a  and the second bonding pad  285  via the wires  245   a  and  245   b . In addition, the first bonding pad  285   a  and the second bonding pad  285   b  may be electrically connected to the first electrode pattern  284   a  and the second electrode pattern  284   b  via the connection electrodes  294   a  and  294   b , respectively. 
     The aforementioned connection electrodes  291   a  to  294   a  and  291   b  to  294   b  may be formed by perforating holes in the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b , the third ceramic layer  220 , and the anti-fracture layer  270 , and then filling the perforated holes with a conductive material. 
     In  FIG. 2 , the heat dissipation member  230  and the first and second electrode patterns  281   a  and  281   b  are exposed under the first ceramic layer  210   a  to thereby come into electrical contact with a circuit board. The heat dissipation member  230  may act as an electrode pattern. 
       FIGS. 3A to 3C  are views schematically illustrating embodiments of a positional relationship between the heat dissipation member and the anti-fracture layer of  FIG. 2 . 
     In  FIG. 3A , the heat dissipation member  230  has a width W a  at a height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   a  and a width W b  at a height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   b , the width W a  being greater than the width W b . The open region of the anti-fracture layer  270  has a width W c , which may be less than the width W a  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   a  and greater than the width W b  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   b . The width Wa may be 1.1˜1.2 times the width Wb. The width W a  may be in a range of 3.0 mm to 3.4 mm, and the width W b  may be in a range of 2.5 mm to 3.0 mm. 
     That is, a portion of the heat dissipation member  230  coming into contact with the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  has a smaller width or area than that of an opposite radiation portion, which may cause radiation enhancement. 
     In addition, since the width W c  of the open region of the anti-fracture layer  270  is less than the width W a  of the heat dissipation member  230  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   a , the anti-fracture layer  270  may resist stress caused by thermal expansion of the heat dissipation member  230 , thereby preventing cracking at the third ceramic layer  220 . In addition, in consideration of the fact that the light emitting devices  240   a  and  240   b  may be arranged at the exposed region of the third ceramic layer  220 , the width W c  of the open region of the anti-fracture layer  270  may be greater than the width Wb of the heat dissipation member  230  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   b.    
     In  FIG. 3A , a thickness t 1  of one first ceramic layer  210   a  may be equal to a thickness t 2  of the other first ceramic layer  210   b . In addition, a thickness t 3  of the anti-fracture layer  270 , which may serve as the second ceramic layer, may be equal to a thickness t 4  of the third ceramic layer  220  and may be 0.5˜1 times the thickness t 1  of the first ceramic layer  210   a . In the present embodiment, the thicknesses t 1  and t 2  of the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b  may be 0.6 mm, the thickness t 3  of the anti-fracture layer  270  may be 0.4 mm, and the thickness t 4  of the third ceramic layer  220  may be 0.2 mm. The thickness t 1  of the first ceramic layer  210   a  is given according to one embodiment of the light emitting device package  200 . In another embodiment, for example, the thickness t 3  of the anti-fracture layer  270  may be equal to the thickness t 1  of the first ceramic layer  210   a.    
     In the embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 3B , the top width of the heat dissipation member  230  is equal to the bottom width of the embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 3A . More specifically, the width W a  of the heat dissipation member  230  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   b  is greater than the width W b  of the heat dissipation member  230  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   a . In this case, stress caused by thermal expansion of the heat dissipation member  230 , in particular, may be concentrated on an edge of the heat dissipation member  230 . Since the width W c  of the open region of the anti-fracture layer  270  is less than the width W a  of the heat dissipation member  230  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   b , the anti-fracture layer  270  may act to alleviate stress to be concentrated on a region of the third ceramic layer  220  corresponding to the edge of the heat dissipation member  230 . 
     In addition, a region of the heat dissipation member  230  proximate to the light emitting device has a greater width, which may ensure easy heat transfer from the light emitting device to the heat dissipation member  230 . However, it is noted that a region of the heat dissipation member  230  provided with an expanded portion  235  has a greater width than the region of the heat dissipation member  230  proximate to the light emitting device. 
     The embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 3C  is similar to the embodiment of  FIG. 3A , but the width W c  of the open region of the anti-fracture layer  270  is less than the width W b  of the heat dissipation member  230  at the height corresponding to the first ceramic layer  210   b . With this configuration, the anti-fracture layer  270  may act to alleviate stress to be concentrated on a region of the third ceramic layer  220  corresponding to the edge of the heat dissipation member  230 . 
       FIGS. 4A to 4C  are views illustrating different embodiments of the anti-fracture layer of  FIG. 2 . 
     In the case in which the heat dissipation member  230  has a configuration as exemplarily shown in  FIG. 3A  or  FIG. 3C , in particular, the heat dissipation member  230  may be separated downward of the drawing due to coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch when heat is applied to different kinds of materials constituting the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b.    
     Accordingly, the heat dissipation member  230  may have different horizontal cross sectional areas or horizontal side lengths at different heights corresponding respectively to the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b . Accordingly, the heat dissipation member  230  may have a first horizontal cross sectional area and a second horizontal cross sectional area different from the first horizontal cross sectional area. In addition, the heat dissipation member  230  may have an expanded portion corresponding to a boundary of the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b.    
     Accordingly, as exemplarily shown in  FIGS. 4A and 4B , an expanded portion  235  may be formed at a partial region of the heat dissipation member  230  to secure the heat dissipation member  230 . The expanded portion  235  may protrude from an uppermost edge of the heat dissipation member  230 , and may be supported by the first ceramic layer  210   b  at regions C and D. 
     In  FIG. 4C , the expanded portions  235  are respectively formed at the regions C and D to firmly secure the heat dissipation member  230  to the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b . Although  FIGS. 4A to 4C  illustrate an additional expanded portion formed at a region E, the level of contribution to securing of the heat dissipation member  230  may be less than that of the expanded portions formed at the region C and the region D. 
     In the above-described embodiments, the expanded portion  235  may be circularly formed at the edge of the heat dissipation member  230 , although it is illustrated as being present at either side in the cross sectional view. One expanded portion  235  may be located between two neighboring layers, for example, between the first ceramic layers  210   a  and  210   b  or between the first ceramic layer  210   b  and the third ceramic layer  220 . 
     In the above-described embodiments of the light emitting device package  200 , the third ceramic layer  220  and the anti-fracture layer  270  may endure stress caused by thermal expansion of the heat dissipation member  230  even if the heat dissipation member  230  thermally expands. In particular, the anti-fracture layer  270  may offset stress applied to a region of the third ceramic layer  220  corresponding to the edge of the heat dissipation member  230 , which may cause enhancement in the durability of the light emitting device package  200 . 
       FIGS. 5A to 5D  are views illustrating embodiments of arrangement of the light emitting devices and the sidewall of the cavity sidewall. 
     In the embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 5A , four light emitting devices  240   a  to  240   d  are arranged on the bottom surface of the cavity, i.e. on the third ceramic layer  220 , and two first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  constitute a rectangular sidewall of the cavity. 
     In the embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 5B , four light emitting devices  240   a  to  240   d  are arranged on the bottom surface of the cavity, i.e. on the second ceramic layer  220 , and two first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  constitute a circular sidewall of the cavity. 
     The embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 5C  is similar to the embodiment of  FIG. 5A , but a pair of open regions is formed in two facing sides of the two first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  constituting the sidewall of the cavity. 
     The embodiment exemplarily shown in  FIG. 5D  is similar to the embodiment of  FIG. 5B , but a pair of open regions is formed in facing regions of the two first ceramic layers  210   c  and  210   d  constituting the sidewall of the cavity. 
     According to an embodiment, a plurality of light emitting device packages may define an array on a circuit board, and optical members, such as a light guide panel, a prism sheet, and a diffusion sheet, may be arranged on an optical path of the light emitting device packages. The light emitting device packages, the circuit board, and the optical members may function as a light unit. According to another embodiment, a display apparatus, an indicator, or a lighting system including semiconductor devices or light emitting device packages of the above-described embodiments may be realized. For example, a lighting system may include a lamp or a street light. Hereinafter, a backlight unit, a sterilization apparatus, and a lighting apparatus having the above-described light emitting device packages will be described. 
       FIG. 6  is a view illustrating an embodiment of an image display apparatus having light emitting device packages. 
     As exemplarily shown, the image display apparatus  500  according to the present embodiment includes a light source module, a reflector  520  on a bottom cover  510 , a light guide panel  540  placed in front of the reflector  520  to guide light emitted from the light source module in a forward direction of the image display apparatus  500 , first and second prism sheets  550  and  560  placed in front of the light guide panel  540 , a panel  570  placed in front of the second prism sheet  560 , and a color filter  580  placed in front of the panel  570 . 
     The light source module includes a light emitting device package  535  on a circuit board  530 . Here, the circuit board  530  may be a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), and the light emitting device package  535  may be as described above with reference to  FIG. 2 , and in particular may emit visible light. The bottom cover  510  may be configured to receive internal constituent elements of the image display apparatus  500 . The reflector  520  may be prepared as a separate component as illustrated in the drawing, or may be a high reflectivity material coated on a rear surface of the light guide panel  540  or a front surface of the bottom cover  510 . 
     The reflector  520  may be formed of an ultrathin material that forms an ultrathin layer and has high reflectivity. For example, the reflector  520  may be formed of polyethylene terephtalate (PET). 
     The light guide panel  540  serves to scatter light emitted from a light emitting device package module to allow light to be evenly distributed throughout the entire screen of the image display apparatus. Accordingly, the light guide panel  540  may be formed of a material having good refractivity and transmittance. For example, the light guide panel  540  may be formed of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC), or polyethylene (PE). If the light guide panel  540  is omitted, an air guide type image display apparatus may be realized. 
     The first prism sheet  550  may be formed on a surface of a support film using a polymer material having light transmittance and elasticity. The polymer material may contain a prism layer in which a plurality of solid patterns is iteratively formed. Here, the plurality of patterns, as illustrated, may include iterative striped ridges and valleys. 
     In the second prism sheet  560 , the direction of ridges and valleys on a surface of a support film may be perpendicular to the direction of ridges and valleys on the surface of the support film in the first prism sheet  550 . This serves to evenly distribute light directed from the light source module and the reflector throughout the panel  570 . 
     In the present embodiment, the first prism sheet  550  and the second prism sheet  560  serve as optical sheets. The optical sheets may have another combination, for example, a micro-lens array, a combination of a diffusion sheet and a micro-lens array, or a combination of a single prism sheet and a micro-lens array. 
     The panel  570  may be a liquid crystal display panel. Instead of the liquid crystal display panel  570 , other kinds of display apparatuses that require a light source may be provided. 
     The panel  570  is constructed in such a way that liquid crystals are interposed between both glass bodies and polarizers are disposed respectively on the glass bodies to realize light polarization. Here, the liquid crystals have intermediate characteristics between liquid and solid. The liquid crystals, which are organic molecules having fluidity similar to liquid, have a regular molecular arrangement. Thus, the liquid crystals serve to display an image as the molecular arrangement thereof varies by an external electric field. 
     The liquid crystal display panel used in the display apparatus is of an active matrix type and utilizes a transistor as a switch to adjust a voltage applied to each pixel. 
     The color filter  580  is provided on a front surface of the panel  570  and serves to selectively transmit light having passed through the panel  570  through Red, Green and Blue pixels, enabling display of an image. 
     The light emitting device packages arranged at the image display apparatus according to the present embodiment may achieve durability enhancement owing to the third ceramic layer and the anti-fracture layer. 
       FIG. 7  is a view illustrating an embodiment of a sterilization apparatus having light emitting device packages. 
     Referring to  FIG. 7 , the sterilization apparatus  600  may include a light emitting module  610  mounted on a surface of a housing  601 , diffusive reflectors  630   a  and  630   b  to implement diffuse reflection of deep-ultraviolet light, and a power supply unit  620  to supply electricity to the light emitting module  610 . The light source module  610  may emit near-ultraviolet or deep-ultraviolet light. 
     First, the housing  601  has a compact rectangular configuration in which the light emitting module  610 , the diffusive reflectors  630   a  and  630   b , and the power supply unit  620  are integrated in the housing  601 . The housing  601  may have a shape and constituent material efficient to outwardly radiate heat generated in the sterilization apparatus  600 . For example, the housing  601  may be formed of any one material of Al, Cu and alloys thereof. Accordingly, the housing  601  may exhibit enhanced heat transfer efficiency with outside air, thus achieving radiation enhancement. 
     Alternatively, the housing  601  may have a special external surface shape. For example, an external surface of the housing  601  may have a corrugated shape, a mesh shape, or unspecified convexo-concave shape. This external surface shape may achieve greater heat transfer efficiency between the housing  601  and the outside air, resulting in radiation enhancement. 
     Attachment plates  650  may be provided respectively at both ends of the housing  601 . The attachment plates  650 , as exemplarily illustrated, serve as brackets used to secure the housing  601  to equipment. The attachment plates  650  may protrude from both ends of the housing  601  in a given direction. Here, the given direction may be an inward direction of the housing  601  in which deep-ultraviolet emission and diffuse reflection occur. 
     Accordingly, the attachment plates  650  provided at both ends of the housing  601  provide a securing region with respect to the equipment, thereby allowing the housing  601  to be more effectively secured. 
     The attachment plates  650  may be secured by any one method selected from among screwing, riveting, adhesive bonding, and separable coupling. These various fastening methods are clearly understood by those skilled in the art and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted herein. 
     The light emitting module  610  is mounted on the surface of the above-described housing  601 . The light emitting module  610  serves to emit deep-ultraviolet light to perform germicidal sterilization of air. To this end, the light emitting module  610  includes a board  612 , and a plurality of light emitting device packages  200  mounted on the board  612 . Here, the light emitting device packages  200  are as described above and may exhibit enhanced durability owing to the third ceramic layer and the anti-fracture layer. 
     The board  612  may be aligned in a single line on an inner surface of the housing  601 , and may be a PCB including a circuit pattern (not shown). In addition to a general PCB, the board  612  may include a Metal Core PCB (MCPCB), a flexible PCB, or the like, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     Next, the diffusive reflectors  630   a  and  630   b  may be plate-shaped reflection members to forcibly implement diffuse reflection of deep-ultraviolet light emitted from the above-described light emitting module  610 . The diffusive reflectors  630   a  and  630   b  may have various front plane shapes and arrangements. The diffusive reflectors  630   a  and  630   b  may be designed to have slightly different planar structures (e.g., radii of curvature), thereby emitting diffusively reflected deep-ultraviolet light beams to overlap areas, thus causing increased emission intensity or expansion in the width of an emission region. 
     The power supply unit  620  serves to supply electricity to the above-described light emitting module  610  upon receiving power. The power supply unit  620  may be located within the aforementioned housing  601 . As exemplarily illustrated, the power supply unit  620  may be located closer to an inner wall in a gap between the diffusive reflectors  630   a  and  630   b  and the light emitting module  610 . To introduce power from an external source to the power supply unit  620 , a power connector  640  for electrical interconnection may be additionally provided. 
     The power connector  640  may have a planar shape, but may take the form of a socket or cable slot to be electrically connected to a power cable (not shown) of the external power source. The power cable may have a flexible extension configuration to achieve easy connection with the external source. 
       FIG. 8  illustrates an embodiment of a lighting apparatus having light emitting device packages. 
     The lighting apparatus according to the present embodiment may include a cover  1100 , a light source module  1200 , a heat dissipation member  1400 , a power supply unit  1600 , an inner case  1700 , and a socket  1800 . In addition, the lighting apparatus according to the present embodiment may include a member  1300  and/or a holder  1500 . The light source module  1200  may emit visible light and include light emitting device packages according to the above-described embodiments. As described above, each light emitting device package may exhibit durability enhancement owing to the third ceramic layer and the anti-fracture layer. 
     The cover  1100  may take the form of an empty bulb or semi-sphere having a partial open region. The cover  1100  may be optically coupled to the light source module  1200 . For example, the cover  1100  may act to diffuse, scatter, or excite light emitted from the light source module  1200 . The cover  1100  may be one kind of optical member. The cover  1100  may be coupled to the heat dissipation member  1400 . The cover  1100  may have a coupling portion to be coupled to the heat dissipation member  1400 . 
     An inner surface of the cover  1100  may be coated with milky paint. The milky paint may contain a diffuser to diffuse light. The surface roughness of the inner surface of the cover  1100  may be greater than the surface roughness of an outer surface of the cover  1100 . This serves to ensure sufficient scattering and diffusion of light from the light source module  1200  and consequently outward emission of the light. 
     The cover  1100  may be formed of glass, plastics, polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polycarbonate (PC), or the like. Here, polycarbonate has excellent light-resistance, heat-resistance and strength. The cover  1100  may be transparent to allow the light source module  1200  to be visible from the outside, or may be opaque. The cover  1100  may be formed by blow molding. 
     The light source module  1200  may be arranged on a surface of the heat dissipation member  1400 . Thus, heat of the light source module  1200  is transferred to the heat dissipation member  1400 . The light source module  1200  may include light emitting device packages  1210 , connection plates  1230 , and a connector  1250 . 
     A fluorescent substance may be placed at a surface of the above-described cover  1100 , or may be placed in the light emitting device package  1210 . Assuming that the fluorescent substance is placed in the light emitting device package  1210 , for example, red, green, and blue fluorescent substances may be placed on separate light emitting devices, or a mixture of red, green, and blue fluorescent substances may be placed on the respective light emitting devices. The member  1300  may be placed on an upper surface of the heat dissipation member  1400 , and may include guide recesses  1310  into which the plurality of light emitting device packages  1210  and the connector  1250  are inserted. The guide recesses  1310  correspond to substrates of the light emitting device packages  1210  and the connector  1250 . 
     A light reflection material may be coated over a surface of the member  1300 . For example, white paint may be coated over the surface of the member  1300 . The member  1300  reflects light, reflected from the inner surface of the cover  1100  and returned to the light source module  1200 , to the cover  1100 . In this way, the lighting apparatus according to the embodiment may achieve enhanced light efficiency. 
     The member  1300  may be formed of an insulating material, for example. The connection plates  1230  of the light source module  1200  may be formed of an electrically conductive material. Accordingly, electrical connection between the heat dissipation member  1400  and the connection plate  1230  may be accomplished. The member  1300 , formed of an insulating material, may prevent electrical short-circuit between the connection plates  1230  and the heat dissipation member  1400 . The heat dissipation member  1400  acts to radiate heat upon receiving heat from the light source module  1200  and heat from the power supply unit  1600 . 
     The holder  1500  is configured to block an accommodation recess  1719  of an insulating portion  1710  of the inner case  1700 . Accordingly, the power supply unit  1600  accommodated in the insulating portion  1710  of the inner case  1700  is sealed. The holder  1500  has a guide protrusion  1510 . The guide protrusion  1510  has a hole through which a protrusion  1610  of the power supply unit  1600  passes. 
     The power supply unit  1600  processes or converts electric signals received from an external source to thereby transmit the same to the light source module  1200 . The power supply unit  1600  is accommodated in the accommodation recess  1719  of the inner case  1700 , and is sealed within the inner case  1700  by the holder  1500 . The power supply unit  1600  may include the protrusion  1610 , a guide portion  1630 , a base  1650 , and an extension  1679 . 
     The guide portion  1630  is configured to outwardly protrude from one side of the base  1650 . The guide portion  1630  may be inserted into the holder  1500 . A plurality of elements may be arranged on a surface of the base  1650 . The plurality of elements, for example, may include a direct current (DC) converter to convert alternating current (AC) power supplied from an external power source into DC power, a drive chip to control driving of the light source module  1200 , and an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protector to protect the light emitting module  1200 , but the disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     The extension  1670  is configured to outwardly protrude from the other side of the base  1650 . The extension  1670  is inserted into a connection portion  1750  of the inner case  1700  and is adapted to receive electric signals from an external source. For example, the extension  1670  may have a width equal to or less than a width of the connection portion  1750  of the inner case  1700 . One end of each of a “+” electric wire and a “−” electric wire may be electrically connected to the extension  1670 , and the other end of each of the “+” electric wire and the “−” electric wire may be electrically connected to the socket  1800 . 
     The inner case  1700  may contain the power supply unit  1600  and a molding part therein. The molding part is formed through hardening of a molding liquid, and serves to allow the power supply unit  1600  to be secured within the inner case  1700 . 
     In the above-described lighting apparatus, UV light emitted from the light emitting devices of the light emitting device packages causes light emission of red, green, and blue wavelengths from fluorescent substances, resulting in emission of white light. In this way, superior color reproduction than light emitting device packages using a blue light emitting device and yellow fluorescent substance may be accomplished. 
     As is apparent from the above description, light emitting device packages according to the embodiments may be configured in such a manner that a third ceramic layer and a anti-fracture layer may endure stress caused by thermal expansion of a heat dissipation member even if the heat dissipation member thermally expands after implementation of a co-firing process upon fabrication of the package. In particular, the anti-fracture layer may offset stress applied to the third ceramic layer at a region corresponding to an edge of the heat dissipation member, which may enhance seal durability of the light emitting device package. 
     Although embodiments have been described with reference to a number of illustrative embodiments thereof, it should be understood that numerous other modifications and embodiments can be devised by those skilled in the art that will fall within the spirit and scope of the principles of this disclosure. More particularly, various variations and modifications are possible in the component parts and/or arrangements of the subject combination arrangement within the scope of the disclosure, the drawings and the appended claims. In addition to variations and modifications in the component parts and/or arrangements, alternative uses will also be apparent to those skilled in the art.
