RESUMO
This study proposes a novel packaging structure for vertical thin-GaN LED applications by integration of LED chip and silicon-based packaging process. The vertical thin film LED is directly mounted on package submount. The shortest thermal path structure from junction to package submount achieves the lowest thermal resistance of 1.65 K/W for LED package. Experimental results indicate that low thermal resistance significant improved forward current up to 4.6A with 1.125 × 1.125 mm² LED chip size.
RESUMO
In this study, cup-shaped copper sheets were developed to improve heat dispassion for high-power light emitting diodes (LEDs) array module (3 × 3, 4 × 4, and 5 × 5) using an electroplating technique. The cup-shaped copper sheets were directly contacted with sapphire to enhance the heat dissipation of the chip itself. The lateral emitting light extraction and heat dissipation of high-power LEDs were enhanced and efficient. The surface temperature was not only decreasing but also uniform for each LED chip with the cup-shaped copper heat spreader adoption. The high thermal transmitting performance of cup-shaped copper heat spreader allows thermal resistance reducing 0.7, 0.6, and 0.7 K/W of 3 × 3, 4 × 4, and 5 × 5 LED array module, respectively. In addition, the light output power was increased of 14, 13, and 12% with 3 × 3, 4 × 4, and 5 × 5 LEDs array module using cup-shaped copper sheet at high current injection. High heat dissipation performance and light extraction were obtained by cup-shaped copper sheet with copper bulk and silver mirror.
