High-power LED package using fine particle phosphor as a case of diffusion powder

High-power LED package features

High-power LED package has been a research hotspot in recent years due to its complicated structure and process, and directly affects the performance and life of LED. Especially, high-power white LED package is a hot spot in research. The choice of LED packaging methods, materials, structures, and processes is primarily determined by factors such as chip structure, optoelectronic/mechanical characteristics, specific applications, and cost. After more than 40 years of development, LED packaging has experienced the development stages of stent (LampLED), SMD (SMDLED), and power LED (PowerLED). With the increase of chip power, especially the development of solid-state lighting technology, new and higher requirements are put forward for the optical, thermal, electrical and mechanical structures of LED packages. In order to effectively improve the light extraction efficiency, a new technical idea must be adopted for the package design.

The role of phosphors in LED packaging is to combine light and color to form white light. Its characteristics mainly include particle size, shape, luminous efficiency, conversion efficiency, stability (heat and chemistry), etc., among which luminous efficiency and conversion efficiency are key. Studies have shown that as the temperature rises, the quantum efficiency of the phosphor decreases, the light emission decreases, and the radiation wavelength also changes, which causes the color temperature and chromaticity of the white LED to change, and the higher temperature accelerates the aging of the phosphor. The reason is that the phosphor coating is prepared by epoxy or silica gel and phosphor, and the heat dissipation performance is poor. When subjected to ultraviolet light or ultraviolet light, temperature quenching and aging are liable to occur, and the luminous efficiency is lowered. In addition, the thermal stability of potting and phosphors at high temperatures is also problematic. Since the common phosphor size is above 17um, the refractive index is greater than or equal to 1.85, and the refractive index of silica gel is generally around 1.5. Due to the mismatch in refractive index between the two, and the phosphor particle size is much larger than the light scattering limit (30 nm), light scattering exists on the surface of the phosphor particles, which reduces the light extraction efficiency. By incorporating nano-phosphor in silica gel, the refractive index can be increased to above 1.8, the light scattering can be reduced, the LED light-emitting efficiency can be improved (10%-20%), and the light color quality can be effectively improved. Or use matching light diffusion powder to improve LED light extraction efficiency.

For example, Hongdae's 432 generally uses a particle size of 8-9um. The particle size of the fine particles is 4um. Therefore, there is a F in the classification. F is a fine particle phosphor. Mainly used in high-power LED package (silica gel or epoxy resin) phosphor coating, the general addition amount is 10-20%.

Applications:

Taking white LED as an example, the refractive index of the chip is about 2-4. For example, GaN (n = 2.5) and GaP (n = 3.45) are much higher than the refractive index of epoxy resin or silicone resin encapsulant (n = 1.40~1.53). If the difference in refractive index is too large, total reflection occurs, and the light is reflected back inside the chip and cannot be effectively exported. Therefore, increasing the refractive index of the package material can reduce the occurrence of total reflection.

Taking the white LED component of the blue chip/**YAG phosphor as an example, the blue LED chip has a refractive index of 2.5, and when the refractive index of the packaging material is raised from 1.5 to 1.7, the light extraction efficiency is improved by nearly 30%; A method in which the refractive index of the encapsulating material reduces the refractive index difference between the chip and the encapsulating material to achieve an improved light-emitting efficiency is feasible.

In general, in order to improve the light-emitting efficiency and reliability of the LED, the encapsulant layer has a tendency to be gradually replaced by a phosphor of a high-refractive-index ultrafine particle, and by incorporating the fine-particle phosphor, the phosphor is not only improved. Uniformity and improved packaging efficiency. In addition, reducing the number of optical interfaces in the direction in which the LEDs are emitted is also an effective means of improving the light extraction efficiency.

Polycrystalline Solar Panel

Polycrystalline silicon solar panels are a common type of Solar Panel whose main function is to convert sunlight into electricity. The following are the main functions of polycrystalline silicon solar panels:

Photoelectric conversion: Polycrystalline silicon solar panels are made of polycrystalline silicon material, and their surface is covered with multiple silicon crystals, which can absorb photons in sunlight. When the photons are absorbed, they release electrons from the silicon crystal, creating an electric current. This process, called photoelectric conversion, converts the energy of sunlight into electricity.

Power generation: The current and voltage generated by polycrystalline silicon solar panels through photoelectric conversion can be used for power generation. Multiple solar panels are combined into a solar module, and a solar array can be formed when used on a large scale. These battery modules and arrays can absorb large amounts of sunlight and convert it into electricity to supply the grid or be used to power equipment.

Renewable energy: Solar panels use sunlight to generate electricity and are therefore renewable energy. Sunlight is free, widely distributed, and not exhausted, so the use of solar panels helps reduce dependence on traditional energy sources, lowers carbon emissions, and is environmentally friendly.

Noiseless: Solar panels have no mechanical moving parts, so there is no noise during the power generation process. This makes them ideal for use in residential areas, schools, and other places where a quiet environment is required.
