Description

  The present invention relates to a novel semiconductor light-emitting device member, a method for manufacturing the same, and a semiconductor light-emitting device using the same. Specifically, the present invention relates to a semiconductor light-emitting device member having high durability against ultraviolet rays and heat and excellent in transparency, a method for producing the same, and a semiconductor light-emitting device using the same.

  In a semiconductor light emitting device such as a light emitting diode (hereinafter abbreviated as “LED” where appropriate) and a semiconductor laser, the semiconductor light emitting element is sealed with a member such as a transparent resin (a member for a semiconductor light emitting device). Is common.

  For example, an epoxy resin is used as the semiconductor light emitting device member. Moreover, what converts the light emission wavelength from a semiconductor light-emitting element by including pigments, such as fluorescent substance, in this sealing resin is known.

  However, since epoxy resin is highly hygroscopic, there are problems such as cracks caused by heat from the semiconductor light-emitting element that occurs when the semiconductor light-emitting device is used for a long time, and deterioration of the phosphor and light-emitting element due to the ingress of moisture. was there.

  In recent years, since the epoxy resin deteriorates and becomes colored as the emission wavelength becomes shorter, there has been a problem that the luminance of the semiconductor light-emitting device is remarkably lowered when used for a long time and at a high output.

  In response to these problems, silicone resins having excellent heat resistance and ultraviolet light resistance have been used as substitutes for epoxy resins. However, since the silicone resin is soft, it is easily damaged, and adhesion, transparency and weather resistance are still insufficient. In contrast, inorganic sealing materials and semiconductor light-emitting devices using the same have been proposed as materials excellent in heat resistance and ultraviolet light resistance (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 5).

Japanese Patent No. 3275308 JP 2003-197976 A JP 2004-231947 A JP 2002-33517 A Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-203989

However, inorganic materials such as molten glass have not been industrially realized because the handling temperature is as high as 350 ° C. or more and damages the light emitting element.
Moreover, in the glass manufactured by the sol-gel method, there is a problem of generation of cracks due to curing shrinkage and separation when molding as a member for a semiconductor light emitting device, and a stable film in a thick film state for a long time has not yet been obtained. It was.

  For example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 describe a technique for forming a glass material using tetrafunctional alkoxysilane. However, regarding the inorganic material obtained by the techniques described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, a tetrafunctional alkoxysilane hydrolyzate is applied to the semiconductor light emitting device, and the performance of the semiconductor light emitting device is not impaired at about 150 ° C. When cured at a mild curing temperature of about several hours, the resulting glass material was usually an incomplete glass body containing more than a dozen weight percent of silanol. Therefore, from the techniques described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, it has not been possible to obtain a glass body that is composed solely of siloxane bonds as in the case of melting glass.

  Unlike general organic resins, the inorganic materials used in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 have a large number of cross-linking points, so the structure is highly constrained and the reactive ends can be isolated and condensed. It is guessed that it is not. Such a glass body is not dense, and the surface thereof is very hydrophilic like silica gel, and therefore does not have sufficient sealing ability.

  In general, by heating at 250 ° C. or higher, such a hard-to-react silanol starts to decrease slightly, and if it is baked at a high temperature of usually 350 ° C. or higher, preferably 400 ° C. or higher, the amount of silanol is actively reduced. It can be made. However, even if it is attempted to remove silanol from the inorganic materials described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 using this, the heat-resistant temperature of the semiconductor light-emitting device is usually 260 ° C. or less, which is difficult to realize.

  Furthermore, since tetrafunctional alkoxysilane has a large amount of components that are desorbed during dehydration and dealcoholization condensation, the shrinkage rate during curing is essentially large. Moreover, since the tetrafunctional alkoxysilane has a high degree of cross-linking, curing begins from the surface portion where a part of the diluted solvent evaporates in the drying step, and after forming a hard gel body containing the solvent, the internal solvent The amount of shrinkage accompanying solvent evaporation also increases. For this reason, in the inorganic materials described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, as a result, a large internal stress is generated due to shrinkage, and cracks frequently occur. Therefore, it has been difficult to obtain a large bulk body or thick film useful as a member for a semiconductor light emitting device using only tetrafunctional alkoxysilane as a raw material.

  Further, for example, Patent Document 3 describes a technique for producing a three-dimensional phosphor layer with high dimensional accuracy by a sol-gel method using a silane compound containing an organic group as a raw material. However, Patent Document 3 does not have a detailed description of the degree of crosslinking, and in order to obtain the inorganic material described in Patent Document 3, a high concentration of phosphor particles is essential, which substantially functions as an aggregate. In order to maintain the shape of the dimension, when a phosphor is not contained in the inorganic material, it was not possible to obtain a thick glass-like coating material that is transparent and has no cracks.

  Furthermore, in the technique described in Patent Document 3, acetic acid is used as a catalyst. However, since acetic acid is not removed from the obtained inorganic material, acetic acid has an adverse effect on the semiconductor light emitting device. In addition, when the inorganic material described in Patent Document 3 is formed, a high temperature of 400 ° C. is required for curing, so that it is substantially impossible to heat the semiconductor light emitting device together with the structure due to excessive condensation at a high temperature. As a result, distortion is accumulated and cracks are not suppressed.

  Also, for example, Patent Document 4 describes a technique for obtaining a member for a semiconductor light emitting device by applying an inorganic coating agent obtained by mixing an inorganic light scattering agent to an inorganic sol having a skeleton of silica or siloxane. . However, an inorganic light scattering agent is indispensable for the inorganic material described in Patent Document 4, and furthermore, Patent Document 4 does not have a detailed description of raw materials and production methods, and it is impossible to accurately reproduce the technology. .

  Furthermore, for example, Patent Document 5 describes a technique for obtaining a semiconductor light emitting device member by applying sol-gel glass. However, similarly to Patent Document 3, a phosphor is essential to obtain the inorganic material described in Patent Document 5. Moreover, although this fluorescent substance functions as an aggregate and the obtained inorganic material is a thick film, the film thickness does not exceed 100 μm. Furthermore, Patent Document 5 does not describe the raw materials and the production method, and it is difficult to stably reproduce the technique using a general alkoxysilane.

  From the above background, the curing conditions are mild and excellent in transparency, light resistance and heat resistance, and it is possible to seal the semiconductor light emitting device and retain the phosphor without cracking or peeling even after long-term use. A member for a semiconductor light emitting device has been demanded.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems. That is, the object of the present invention is a novel, which is excellent in transparency, light resistance, heat resistance, can seal a semiconductor light emitting device and retain a phosphor without cracking or peeling even after long-term use. Another object is to provide a member for a semiconductor light emitting device.

  As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above object, the present inventors have a specific peak in the solid Si-nuclear magnetic resonance (hereinafter referred to as “NMR” as appropriate) spectrum and contain silicon. When the polymer having a rate equal to or higher than a specific value and having a silanol content in a predetermined range is used as a semiconductor light emitting device member, the occurrence of cracks is suppressed even in the thick film portion, And it discovered that it became the thing excellent in adhesiveness, heat resistance, and transparency, and completed this invention.

That is, the gist of the present invention is as follows: (1) In the solid Si-nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum, (i) the peak top position is in the region of chemical shift −40 ppm or more and 0 ppm or less, and the peak half-value width is 0.5 ppm or more, A group consisting of a peak having a peak of 3.0 ppm or less and (ii) a peak having a peak position in the region of a chemical shift of −80 ppm or more and less than −40 ppm and a peak half-value width of 1.0 ppm or more and 5.0 ppm or less. It has at least one peak selected from the above, (2) silicon content is 20% by weight or more, and (3) silanol content is 0.1% by weight or more and 10% by weight or less. The present invention resides in a semiconductor light emitting device sealing member for sealing a semiconductor light emitting element .

Here, it is preferable that the sealing member for a semiconductor light emitting device has a plurality of the peaks (claim 2).

  The member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention can be coated with a thick film as compared with a conventional member for an inorganic semiconductor light emitting device, and the semiconductor light emitting device can be easily sealed simply by coating and drying on the semiconductor light emitting device. It can stop and hold | maintain a fluorescent substance. Moreover, it is excellent in transparency, light resistance, and heat resistance, and does not cause cracking or peeling even after long-term use.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

[I. Semiconductor light emitting device member]
The member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention has the following features (1) to (3).
(1) In a solid Si-NMR spectrum,
(I) The peak top position is in the region of chemical shift −40 ppm or more and 0 ppm or less, and the peak half-width is 0.5 ppm or more and 3.0 ppm or less, and
(Ii) The position of the peak top is in a region where the chemical shift is −80 ppm or more and less than −40 ppm, and the peak half-value width is at least one peak selected from the group consisting of peaks of 1.0 ppm or more and 5.0 ppm or less. .
(2) The silicon content is 20% by weight or more.
(3) The silanol content is 0.1% by weight or more and 10% by weight or less.
Hereinafter, these features (1) to (3) will be described first.

[I-1. Solid Si-NMR spectrum]
A compound containing silicon as a main component is represented by the SiO ₂ .nH ₂ O formula, but structurally, oxygen atoms O are bonded to each vertex of a tetrahedron of silicon atoms Si, and these oxygens It has a structure in which silicon atom Si is further bonded to atom O and spreads in a net shape. The schematic diagram shown below represents the Si—O net structure while ignoring the tetrahedral structure, and in the repeating unit of Si—O—Si—O—, Some parts are substituted with other members (for example, —H, —CH _3, etc.). When attention is paid to one silicon atom Si, as shown in (A) of the schematic diagram, four —OSi are silicon atoms having Si (Q ^4), a silicon atom Si (Q ³⁾ having three -OSi as shown in the schematic diagram (B) or the like is present. Then, in the solid-state Si-NMR measurement, peaks based on each silicon atom Si above is sequentially referred to Q ⁴ peak, Q ³ peak, and ....

These silicon atoms having four bonded oxygen atoms are generally referred to as Q sites. In the present invention, Q ^{0 to} Q ⁴ peaks derived from the Q site are referred to as a Q ⁿ peak group. The Q ⁿ peak group of the silica film containing no organic substituent is usually observed as a multimodal peak continuous in the region of chemical shift of −80 to −130 ppm.

In contrast, silicon atoms to which three oxygen atoms are bonded and other atoms (usually carbon) are bonded together are generally referred to as T sites. The peak derived from the T site is observed as each peak of T ^{0 to} T ³ as in the case of the Q site. In the present invention, each peak derived from the T site is referred to as a T ⁿ peak group. The T ⁿ peak group is generally observed as a multimodal peak continuous in the region on the higher magnetic field side (usually −80 to −40 ppm) than the Q ⁿ peak group.

Furthermore, a silicon atom to which two oxygen atoms are bonded and two other atoms (usually carbon) are bonded is generally referred to as a D site. Similarly to the peak group derived from the Q site and the T site, the peak derived from the D site is also observed as each peak of D ^{0 to} D ⁿ (D ⁿ peak group), which is further than the peak group of Q ⁿ and T ^n. It is observed as a multimodal peak in the region on the high magnetic field side (usually the region with a chemical shift of 0 to −40 ppm). The ratio of the area of each peak group of D ⁿ , T ⁿ , and Q ⁿ is equal to the molar ratio of silicon atoms placed in the environment corresponding to each peak group. In terms of molar amount, the total area of the D ⁿ peak group and the T ⁿ peak group usually corresponds to the molar amount of all silicon directly bonded to carbon atoms.

Bond When measuring the solid Si-NMR spectrum of the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention, the D ⁿ peak group and T ⁿ peak group originating from silicon atoms in which carbon atoms directly bonded organic group, and the carbon atom of an organic group ^Qn peaks derived from silicon atoms that are not present appear in different regions. Among these peaks, the peak of less than −80 ppm corresponds to the Q ⁿ peak as described above, and the peaks of −80 ppm or more correspond to the D ⁿ and T ⁿ peaks. In the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention, the Q ⁿ peak is not essential, but at least one, preferably a plurality of peaks are observed in the D ⁿ and T ⁿ peak regions.

  In addition, the value of the chemical shift of the member for semiconductor light-emitting devices can be calculated based on the result of performing solid Si-NMR measurement using the method described later in the description of the examples. In addition, analysis of measurement data (half-width or silanol amount analysis) is performed by a method of dividing and extracting each peak by, for example, waveform separation analysis using a Gaussian function or a Lorentz function.

[I-2. Silicon content)
The semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention must have a silicon content of 20% by weight or more (feature (2)). A basic skeleton of a conventional member for a semiconductor light emitting device is an organic resin such as an epoxy resin having a carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygen bond as a basic skeleton. On the other hand, the basic skeleton of the semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention is the same inorganic siloxane bond as glass (silicate glass). As is apparent from the chemical bond comparison table shown in Table 1 below, this siloxane bond has the following characteristics excellent as a member for a semiconductor light emitting device.

(I) Light resistance is good because the bond energy is large and thermal decomposition and photolysis are difficult.
(II) It is slightly polarized electrically.
(III) The degree of freedom of the chain structure is large, a structure with high flexibility is possible, and the chain structure can freely rotate around the center of the siloxane chain.
(IV) The degree of oxidation is large and no further oxidation occurs.
(V) Rich in electrical insulation.

  Because of these characteristics, a silicone-based semiconductor light-emitting device member formed of a skeleton in which siloxane bonds are three-dimensionally bonded with a high degree of crosslinking is different from a conventional resin-based semiconductor light-emitting device member such as an epoxy resin. Alternatively, it can be understood that the protective film is close to minerals such as rocks and is rich in heat resistance and light resistance. In particular, a silicone-based semiconductor light-emitting device member having a methyl group as a substituent does not absorb in the ultraviolet region, so that photolysis hardly occurs and light resistance is excellent.

As described above, the silicon content of the semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention is 20% by weight or more, preferably 25% by weight or more, and more preferably 30% by weight or more. On the other hand, the upper limit is usually in the range of 47% by weight or less because the silicon content of the glass composed solely of SiO ₂ is 47% by weight.

  The silicon content of the semiconductor light emitting device member is analyzed by, for example, inductively coupled plasma spectrometry (hereinafter, abbreviated as “ICP” as appropriate) using the method described later in the description of the examples. It can be calculated based on the result.

[I-3. Silanol content)
In the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention, the silanol content is usually 0.1% by weight or more, preferably 0.3% by weight or more, and usually 10% by weight or less, preferably 8% by weight or less, more preferably It is preferably in the range of 5% by weight or less (feature (3)).

  Usually, a glass body obtained by a sol-gel method using alkoxysilane as a raw material does not completely polymerize and become an oxide under mild curing conditions at 150 ° C. for about 3 hours, and a certain amount of silanol remains. A glass body obtained only from tetraalkoxysilane has high hardness and high light resistance, but has a high degree of cross-linking so that the degree of freedom of molecular chains is small, and complete condensation does not occur, so the amount of residual silanol is large. Further, when the hydrolysis / condensation liquid is dry-cured, the viscosity increases quickly due to the large number of cross-linking points, and the drying and curing proceed simultaneously, resulting in a bulk body having a large distortion. When such a member is used as a member for a semiconductor light emitting device, new internal stress is generated due to condensation of residual silanol during long-term use, and problems such as cracks, peeling, and disconnection are likely to occur. In addition, the fracture surface of the member has more silanol and less moisture permeability, but it has high surface hygroscopicity and tends to invade moisture. Although it is possible to reduce the silanol content by high-temperature baking at 400 ° C. or higher, the heat resistance of semiconductor light-emitting devices is almost 260 ° C. or lower, which is not realistic.

  On the other hand, the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention has excellent performance with low silanol content, little change with time, excellent long-term performance stability, and low moisture absorption and moisture permeability. However, since a member containing no silanol is inferior in adhesion to a semiconductor light emitting device, the optimum range of silanol content exists as described above in the present invention.

  The silanol content of the semiconductor light-emitting device member is determined by, for example, performing solid Si-NMR spectrum measurement using the method described later in the description of the examples, and from the ratio of the peak area derived from silanol to the total peak area, It can be calculated by obtaining the ratio (%) of silicon atoms that are silanols in the interior and comparing it with the separately analyzed silicon content.

[I-4. Reason why the effect of the present invention is obtained by the above features (1) to (3)]
The semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention has the above-mentioned features (1) to (3), so that the thick film portion is hardly cured without cracking, and adheres to the case. And a cured product having excellent durability against light and heat after curing. The reason for this is not clear, but is presumed as follows.

As a method for obtaining a semiconductor light emitting device member made of inorganic glass, a melting method in which low melting point glass is melted and sealed, and a solution obtained by hydrolyzing and polycondensing alkoxysilane at a relatively low temperature are applied and dried. There is a sol-gel method for curing. Of these members, only the ^Qn peak is mainly observed for the member obtained from the melting method, but it requires a high temperature of at least 350 ° C. for melting and is not a practical method because it causes thermal degradation of the semiconductor light emitting device.

On the other hand, the hydrolysis / polycondensation product obtained from the tetrafunctional silane compound in the sol-gel method becomes a completely inorganic glass and is extremely excellent in heat resistance and weather resistance, but the curing reaction is silanol condensation (dehydration / dehydration). Since the crosslinking proceeds due to the (alcohol) reaction, the dehydration occurs, resulting in weight reduction and volume shrinkage. Therefore, ^{if the} raw material is composed only of tetrafunctional silane having a Q ⁿ peak, the degree of curing shrinkage becomes too large, cracks are likely to occur in the coating, and it becomes impossible to increase the thickness. In such a system, attempts are made to increase the film thickness by adding inorganic particles as an aggregate or by overcoating, but generally the limit film thickness is about 10 μm. When sol-gel glass is used as a member for a semiconductor light-emitting device, there is a problem that a film thickness of 500 to 1000 μm must be secured because it is necessary to mold on a wiring portion having a complicated shape. Further, as described above, in order to sufficiently reduce the residual silanol and obtain a completely inorganic glass, heating at a high temperature of 400 ° C. or more is required, which is not realistic because the semiconductor device is thermally deteriorated.

In contrast, in the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention, by adjusting the crosslink density, in order to give flexibility to the film, bifunctional silane having a trifunctional silane and / or D ⁿ peak with T ⁿ peak By simultaneously carrying out hydrolysis and polycondensation, the volume reduction due to dehydration condensation and the crosslinking density can be appropriately reduced within a range that does not hinder the function, and the hydrolysis / condensation process and the drying process are controlled. It becomes possible to obtain a transparent glass film-like member having a film thickness of 1000 μm. Therefore, in the present invention, the presence of a T ⁿ peak and / or a D ⁿ peak observed at −80 ppm or more is essential.

As a method for increasing the film thickness by using a bifunctional or trifunctional raw material as a main component as described above, for example, a technique of a hard coat film such as glasses is known, and the film thickness is several μm or less. Since these hard coat films are thin, solvent volatilization is easy and uniform curing is possible, and differences in adhesion to the base material and linear expansion coefficient have been the main cause of cracks. On the other hand, in the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention, since the film thickness is as large as the paint, the film itself has a certain strength, and a slight difference in linear expansion coefficient can be absorbed. Due to volume reduction, generation of internal stress different from the case of a thin film becomes a new problem. In other words, when molding into a deep container with a small opening area such as an LED cup, if heat curing is performed in a state where drying at the deep part of the film is insufficient, solvent volatilization occurs after cross-linking and the volume is reduced, resulting in large cracks. And foaming occurs. A large internal stress is applied to such a film, and when the solid Si-NMR of this film is measured, the detected D ⁿ , T ⁿ , and Q ⁿ peak groups have a siloxane bond angle as compared with the case where the internal stress is small. Produces a distribution, each with a broader peak. This fact means that the bond angle represented by two -OSi with respect to Si has a large strain. That is, even in a film made of the same raw material, the narrower the half-value width of these peaks, the less likely cracking occurs and the higher the quality film.

It should be noted that the phenomenon in which the half-value width increases in accordance with the strain is observed more sensitively as the degree of restraint of the molecular motion of the Si atoms increases, and the ease of appearing becomes D ⁿ <T ⁿ <Q ⁿ .

  In the present invention, the half width of the peak observed in the region of −80 ppm or more is characterized by being smaller (narrower) than the half width range of the semiconductor light emitting device member known so far by the sol-gel method.

When organized according to chemical shift, in the present invention, the half width of the T ⁿ peak group observed at a peak top position of −80 ppm or more and less than −40 ppm is usually 5.0 ppm or less, preferably 4.0 ppm or less, Usually, it is 1.0 ppm or more, preferably 1.5 ppm or more.

Similarly, the full width at half maximum of the D ⁿ peak group observed at the peak top position of −40 ppm or more and 0 ppm or less is generally smaller than that of the T ⁿ peak group due to the small restraint of molecular motion, and usually 3.0 ppm or less. , Preferably 2.0 ppm or less, and usually in the range of 0.5 ppm or more.

  If the half width of the peak observed in the above chemical shift region is larger than the above range, the molecular motion is constrained and the strain becomes large, and cracks are likely to occur, which may result in a member having poor heat resistance and weather resistance. There is. For example, in the case where a large amount of tetrafunctional silane is used, or in the state where rapid drying is performed in the drying process and a large internal stress is stored, the full width at half maximum is larger than the above range.

  In addition, when the half width of the peak is smaller than the above range, Si atoms in the environment are not involved in siloxane crosslinking. For example, the crosslinked portion is formed by Si—C bonds like a silicone resin, and the dimethylsiloxane chain There is a possibility that the member may be inferior in heat resistance and weather durability compared with a substance formed mainly of a siloxane bond, such as an example in which only the D2 peak is observed or an example in which trifunctional silane remains in an uncrosslinked state.

Furthermore, as described above, in the solid Si-nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention, at least one peak, preferably a plurality of peaks are observed in the D ⁿ and T ⁿ peak regions. Thus, the solid Si- nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention, a peak selected from the group consisting of D ⁿ peak group and T ⁿ peak group having a FWHM ranging as described above, at least one, It is desirable to have two or more.

In addition, the composition of the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is limited to the case where the crosslinking in the system is mainly formed of inorganic components including silica. That is, even if the peak of the above-mentioned half-value range is observed at −80 ppm or more in a semiconductor light emitting device member containing a small amount of Si component in a large amount of organic component, the good heat resistance and light resistance defined in the present invention and Application performance cannot be obtained. The semiconductor light emitting device member having a silicon content of 20% by weight or more according to the provisions of the present invention contains 43% by weight or more of SiO ₂ in terms of silica (SiO ₂ ).

Moreover, since the member for semiconductor light-emitting devices of the present invention contains an appropriate amount of silanol, silanol hydrogen bonds to the polar portion present on the device surface, and adhesion is exhibited. Examples of the polar part include a hydroxyl group and a metalloxane-bonded oxygen.
In addition, the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention forms a covalent bond by dehydration condensation with the hydroxyl group on the device surface by heating in the presence of an appropriate catalyst, and expresses stronger adhesion. Can do.
On the other hand, if there is too much silanol, the inside of the system will thicken and it will be difficult to apply, or it will become highly active and solidify before the light boiling component volatilizes by heating, resulting in increased foaming and internal stress. This may cause cracks and the like.

[I-5. UV transmittance)
The member for a semiconductor light-emitting device of the present invention preferably has a light transmittance of 80% or more, particularly 85% or more, and more preferably 90% or more at a light emission wavelength of a semiconductor light-emitting device having a thickness of 0.5 mm. The light-emitting efficiency of semiconductor light-emitting devices has been enhanced by various technologies. However, if the transparency of a translucent member for sealing a chip or holding a phosphor is low, a semiconductor light-emitting device using the same Since the luminance is reduced, it is difficult to obtain a semiconductor light emitting device product with high luminance.

  Here, the “emission wavelength of the semiconductor light-emitting device” is a value that varies depending on the type of the semiconductor light-emitting device, but is generally 300 nm or more, preferably 350 nm or more, and usually 900 nm or less, preferably 500 nm. It refers to the following range of wavelengths. When the light transmittance at a wavelength in this range is low, the semiconductor light emitting device member absorbs light, the light extraction efficiency is lowered, and a high-luminance device cannot be obtained. Furthermore, the energy corresponding to the decrease in the light extraction efficiency is changed to heat, which causes thermal deterioration of the device, which is not preferable.

  In the near ultraviolet to blue region (350 nm to 500 nm), the sealing member easily deteriorates. Therefore, the semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention having excellent durability is applied to a semiconductor light emitting device having an emission wavelength in this region. If used, the effect is increased, which is preferable.

  The light transmittance of the member for a semiconductor light emitting device is measured with an ultraviolet spectrophotometer using a sample of a single cured film having a smooth surface molded to a thickness of 0.5 mm, for example, by the method described in the examples. can do.

  However, the shape of the semiconductor device is various, and the majority is used in a thick film state exceeding 0.1 mm. However, a thin phosphor layer (for example, nanofluorescence) is located at a position away from the LED chip (light emitting element). There are also applications using thin films, such as when providing a layer having a thickness of several μm containing body particles or fluorescent ions), or when providing a high refractive light extraction film on a thin film directly above the LED chip. In such a case, it is preferable to show a transmittance of 80% or more at this film thickness. Even in such a thin-film application mode, the semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention exhibits excellent light resistance and heat resistance, has excellent sealing performance, and can be stably formed without cracks.

[I-6. Others]
The semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention can be applied in a thick film shape, is excellent in transparency, and has excellent sealing properties, heat resistance, ultraviolet resistance, etc. Can be applied. In particular, in a semiconductor light emitting device having an emission wavelength in a blue to ultraviolet region, it can be used as a useful member with little deterioration.

The semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention is excellent in adhesion to a container, heat resistance, and UV resistance. Since it has such advantageous characteristics, any of the members for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention can be suitably used as a sealing agent for a semiconductor light emitting device.
Each will be described below.

[Adhesion]
The member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention has a functional group capable of hydrogen bonding with a predetermined functional group (for example, a hydroxyl group, oxygen in a metalloxene bond, etc.) present on the surface of a resin such as polyphthalacid, ceramic or metal. .

  As a raw material, you may use only 1 type among these compounds (1) and a compound (2), However, You may mix 2 or more types by arbitrary combinations and compositions. Further, as described above, oligomers of these compounds (1) and (2) may be used as raw materials. That is, the compound (1) and / or its oligomer may be used as a raw material, or the compound (2) and its oligomer may be used as a raw material. Further, the compound (1) or the compound (2) hydrolyzed in advance (that is, -X is an OH group in the general formulas (1) and (2)) may be used.

However, in the present invention, as a raw material, compound (1) and compound (2) (including hydrolyzed ones) containing silicon as M and having at least one organic group Y ¹ or organic group Y ² and It is necessary to use at least one oligomer. In addition, since it is preferable that the crosslinking in the system is mainly formed by inorganic components including a siloxane bond, when the compound (1) and the compound (2) are used together, the compound (1) is mainly used. It is preferable to become.

  Further, when the compound (1) is used as a raw material, if the hardness of the manufactured semiconductor light emitting device member is to be increased, a trifunctional or higher functional compound (1) (2) as a raw material with respect to the bifunctional compound (1) ( That is, it is preferable to increase the ratio of the trifunctional or tetrafunctional compound (1)). This is because a trifunctional or higher functional compound can serve as a crosslinking component, and therefore, by increasing the ratio of the trifunctional or higher functional compound, the cross-linking of the semiconductor light emitting device member can be promoted.

  Here, when a tetrafunctional or higher functional compound is used as the crosslinking agent, it is preferable to adjust the cross-linking degree of the entire system by increasing the use ratio of the bifunctional as compared with the case of using the trifunctional compound. When the oligomer of the compound (1) is used, there are a bifunctional oligomer, a trifunctional oligomer, a tetrafunctional oligomer, an oligomer having a plurality of these units, and the like. At this time, when the ratio of the trifunctional or higher monomer unit to the bifunctional monomer unit is increased in the entire final semiconductor light emitting device member, a hard semiconductor light emitting device member can be obtained in the same manner as described above.

  In addition, when using the compound (2), the basic concept is the same as when using the above compound (1). However, when the molecular weight of the organic group portion of the compound (2) is large, the distance between cross-linking points is substantially increased as compared with the case where the molecular weight is small, so that the flexibility tends to increase.

  Here, when the compound (2) and / or the oligomer thereof is used as a main raw material, the main chain structure in the system becomes an organic bond main body and may be inferior in durability. For this reason, it is desirable to use the minimum amount of the compound (2) for providing functions such as adhesion, refractive index adjustment, reactivity control, and inorganic particle dispersibility. When compound (1) and / or its oligomer (component derived from compound (1)) and compound (2) and / or its oligomer (component derived from compound (2)) are used at the same time, the compound ( 2) It is desirable that the amount of the derived component used is usually 30% by weight or less, preferably 20% by weight or less, more preferably 10% by weight or less.

  As described above, the member for a semiconductor light emitting device in which the peak half width of the solid Si-NMR is within the range of the present invention is adjusted in the degree of crosslinking by controlling the ratio of the bifunctional monomer unit and the trifunctional or higher monomer unit. Therefore, the stress distortion is small, and it is possible to obtain moderate flexibility useful as a member for a semiconductor light emitting device.

[II-2. (Hydrolysis / polycondensation process)
In the present invention, first, at least one of the above-described compound (1), compound (2) and oligomer thereof is subjected to hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction (hydrolysis / polycondensation step). This hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction can be carried out by a known method. Hereinafter, when referring to the compound (1), the compound (2) and the oligomer thereof without distinction, they are referred to as “raw material compounds”.

  The theoretical amount of water used for conducting the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction of the raw material compound is a 1/2 molar ratio of the total amount of hydrolyzable groups in the system based on the reaction formula shown in the following formula (3). .

なお、上記式（３）は、一般式（１），（２）のＭがケイ素である場合を例として表わしている。また、「≡Ｓｉ」及び「Ｓｉ≡」は、ケイ素原子の有する４つの結合手のうち３つを省略して表わしたものである。

In addition, the said Formula (3) represents as an example the case where M of General formula (1), (2) is a silicon | silicone. “≡Si” and “Si≡” are represented by omitting three of the four bonds of the silicon atom.

  In this specification, the theoretical amount of water required for the hydrolysis, that is, the amount of water corresponding to 1/2 molar ratio of the total amount of hydrolyzable groups is used as a reference (hydrolysis rate 100%). The amount of water used is expressed as a percentage of this reference amount, ie “hydrolysis rate”.

  In the present invention, the amount of water used for carrying out the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction is usually 80% or more, preferably 100% or more, when expressed by the above hydrolysis rate. When the hydrolysis rate is less than this range, the hydrolysis and polymerization are insufficient, so that the raw material may volatilize during curing or the strength of the cured product may be insufficient. On the other hand, if the hydrolysis rate exceeds 200%, free water always remains in the curing system, causing deterioration of the chip and phosphor due to moisture, or the cup part absorbs water, and foaming during curing. It may cause cracks and peeling. However, what is important in the hydrolysis reaction is that hydrolysis and polycondensation are performed with water of around 100% or more (for example, 80% or more). If a step of removing free water is added before coating, 200% is obtained. It is possible to apply a hydrolysis rate exceeding. In this case, if too much water is used, the amount of water to be removed and the amount of solvent used as a compatibilizer increase, the concentration process becomes complicated, and polycondensation proceeds so much that the coating performance of the member decreases. Therefore, the upper limit of the hydrolysis rate is usually 500% or less, particularly 300% or less, preferably 200% or less.

  When the raw material compound is hydrolyzed / condensed, a known catalyst or the like may be allowed to coexist to promote hydrolysis / condensation polymerization. In this case, as a catalyst to be used, an organic acid such as acetic acid, propionic acid or butyric acid, an inorganic acid such as nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid, or an organometallic compound catalyst can be used. Of these, in the case of a member used in a portion in direct contact with the semiconductor light emitting device, an organometallic compound catalyst that has little influence on the insulating properties is preferable.

  The hydrolysis / polycondensation product of the raw material compound is preferably liquid. However, even a solid hydrolysis / polycondensate can be used as long as it becomes liquid by using a solvent.

  When the inside of the system is separated and becomes non-uniform during the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction, a solvent may be used. As the solvent, for example, C1-C3 lower alcohols, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, methyl cellosolve, ethyl cellosolve, methyl ethyl ketone, and other solvents that can be uniformly mixed with water can be arbitrarily used. Of these, those which do not exhibit strong acidity or basicity are preferred because they do not adversely affect hydrolysis and polycondensation. The solvent may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The amount of solvent used can be freely selected. However, since the solvent is often removed when applied to a semiconductor light emitting device, it is preferably set to the minimum necessary amount. In order to facilitate the removal of the solvent, it is preferable to select a solvent having a boiling point of 100 ° C. or lower, more preferably 80 ° C. or lower. In addition, even if it does not add a solvent from the exterior, since solvents, such as alcohol, are produced | generated by a hydrolysis reaction, even if it is heterogeneous at the beginning of reaction, it may become uniform during reaction.

  When the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction of the raw material compound is carried out at normal pressure, it is usually 15 ° C or higher, preferably 20 ° C or higher, more preferably 40 ° C or higher, and usually 140 ° C or lower, preferably 135 ° C or lower. More preferably, it is performed in a range of 130 ° C. or lower. Although it is possible to carry out at a higher temperature by maintaining the liquid phase under pressure, it is preferable not to exceed 150 ° C.

  Although the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction time varies depending on the reaction temperature, it is usually 0.1 hour or longer, preferably 1 hour or longer, more preferably 3 hours or longer, and usually 100 hours or shorter, preferably 20 hours or shorter, more preferably It is carried out in the range of 15 hours or less.

  Under the above hydrolysis / polycondensation conditions, if the time is shortened or the temperature is too low, the hydrolysis / polymerization is insufficient, and the raw material may volatilize during curing or the strength of the cured product may be insufficient. is there. In addition, if the time is too long or the temperature is too high, the molecular weight of the polymer increases and the amount of silanol in the system decreases, resulting in poor adhesion at the time of application or curing too early, resulting in a poor cured structure. It becomes uniform and tends to cause cracks. Based on the above tendency, it is desirable to appropriately select conditions according to desired physical property values.

  After the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction is completed, the obtained hydrolysis / polycondensation product is stored at room temperature or lower until the time of use. When used as a shaped member, it should be used within 60 days, preferably within 30 days, more preferably within 15 days at room temperature storage after the completion of the hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction by heating. Is preferred. This period can be extended by low-temperature storage in a range that does not freeze as required.

[II-3. Dry)
The member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention can be obtained by drying the hydrolysis / polycondensation product obtained by the hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction described above (drying step). As described above, the hydrolyzed / polycondensed product is usually in a liquid state, but is dried in a state where the hydrolyzed / polycondensed product is placed in a mold having a desired shape, thereby having the desired shape. The member for use can be formed. Further, by drying the hydrolyzate / polycondensate applied to the target site, the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention can be formed directly on the target site. This liquid hydrolysis / polycondensate is referred to as “hydrolysis / polycondensation liquid” or “member-forming liquid for semiconductor light emitting devices” as appropriate in this specification.

In the present invention, the above hydrolysis / polycondensation reaction is performed in the presence of a solvent, and this drying step is a first drying step in which the solvent is substantially removed at a temperature not higher than the boiling point of the solvent. It is preferable to carry out separately from the second drying step of drying at a temperature equal to or higher than the boiling point of the solvent. Here, it referred to "solvent", is produced by the hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction of M m ⁺ X _n Y ¹ _mn and _{^{(M s + X t Y 1}} st-1) described above starting compounds represented by _u Y ² Or a solvent represented by XH or the like. Further, “drying” in the present specification refers to a step in which the hydrolysis / polycondensation product of the raw material compound loses the solvent and is further polymerized and cured to form a metalloxane bond.

  In the first drying step, the solvent contained is substantially reduced at a temperature below the boiling point of the solvent, preferably at a temperature below the boiling point, without actively proceeding with further polymerization of the hydrolysis / polycondensate of the raw material compound. To be removed. That is, the product obtained in this step is a product obtained by condensing the hydrolyzed / polycondensed product before drying into a viscous liquid or a soft film by hydrogen bonding. When the first drying is performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the boiling point of the solvent, the resulting film is foamed by the vapor of the solvent, making it difficult to obtain a uniform film having no defects. This first drying step may be performed in a single step when the evaporation efficiency of the solvent is good, such as when it is a thin-film member, but a plurality of cases when the evaporation efficiency is poor such as when molded on a cup. The temperature may be increased in steps of In the case of a shape with extremely poor evaporation efficiency, it may be dried and concentrated in advance in another efficient container, and then applied in a state where the fluidity remains, and further dried. When the evaporation efficiency is poor, it is preferable to devise a method in which the whole member is uniformly dried without taking a means of concentrating only the surface of the member, such as ventilation drying with a large amount of air.

  In the second drying step, the hydrolysis / polycondensate is heated at a temperature equal to or higher than the boiling point of the solvent in a state where the solvent of the hydrolysis / polycondensation product is substantially eliminated by the first drying step, By forming a metalloxane bond, a stable cured product is obtained. If a large amount of solvent remains in this step, the volume is reduced due to evaporation of the solvent while the crosslinking reaction proceeds, so that a large internal stress is generated, causing peeling and cracking due to shrinkage. Since the metalloxane bond is usually formed efficiently at 100 ° C. or higher, the second drying step is preferably performed at 100 ° C. or higher, more preferably 120 ° C. or higher. However, when it is heated together with the semiconductor light emitting device, it is usually preferable to carry out the drying at a temperature not higher than the heat resistance temperature of the device component, preferably 200 ° C. or lower. The curing time in the second drying step is not generally determined by the catalyst concentration, the thickness of the member, etc., but is usually 0.1 hour or longer, preferably 0.5 hour or longer, more preferably 1 hour or longer, and usually 10 It is carried out for a period of time or less, preferably 5 hours or less, more preferably 3 hours or less.

  Thus, by clearly separating the solvent removal step (first drying step) and the curing step (second drying step), the semiconductor light emitting device having the physical properties of the present invention and excellent in light resistance and heat resistance. The member can be obtained without cracking or peeling.

  In addition, as long as the above-mentioned 1st drying process and 2nd drying process are implement | achieved substantially, the temperature rising conditions in each process are not restrict | limited in particular. That is, it may be held at a constant temperature during each drying step, or the temperature may be changed continuously or intermittently. In addition, each drying step may be further divided into a plurality of times. Furthermore, even when the temperature temporarily becomes higher than the boiling point of the solvent during the first drying step, or when there is a period during which the temperature becomes lower than the boiling point of the solvent during the second drying step, In particular, so long as the solvent removal step (first drying step) and the curing step (second drying step) as described above are achieved independently, they are included in the scope of the present invention.

[II-4. Others]
After the above-described drying step, various post-treatments may be performed on the obtained semiconductor light-emitting device member as necessary. Examples of the post-treatment include surface treatment for improving adhesion to the mold part, production of an antireflection film, production of a fine uneven surface for improving light extraction efficiency, and the like.

  The median particle diameter of these phosphor particles is not particularly limited, but is usually 100 nm or more, preferably 2 μm or more, particularly preferably 5 μm or more, and usually 100 μm or less, preferably 50 μm or less, particularly preferably 20 μm or less. In addition, as long as the shape of the phosphor particles does not affect the formation of the semiconductor light emitting device member, for example, a phosphor part forming liquid (a liquid obtained by adding a phosphor to the above semiconductor light emitting device member forming liquid) There is no particular limitation as long as it does not affect the fluidity or the like.

  In the present invention, the method for adding phosphor particles is not particularly limited. If the dispersed state of the phosphor particles is good, it is only necessary to post-mix the phosphor particles in the above-described member forming liquid for semiconductor light emitting device. In the case where the aggregation of the phosphor particles is likely to occur, the phosphor particles are mixed in advance with a reaction solution containing the raw material compound before hydrolysis (hereinafter referred to as “pre-hydrolysis solution” as appropriate), and in the presence of the phosphor particles. When the hydrolysis / polycondensation is carried out at, the surface of the particles is partially subjected to silane coupling treatment, and the dispersed state of the phosphor particles is improved.

  Although some phosphors are hydrolyzable, the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is potentially water as a silanol body in a liquid state before application (member forming liquid for a semiconductor light emitting device). Therefore, such phosphors can be used without being hydrolyzed. Further, when the hydrolyzed / polycondensed semiconductor light-emitting device member forming solution is used after being subjected to dehydration and dealcoholization treatment, there is also an advantage that the combined use with such a phosphor becomes easy.

  Furthermore, the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention may be a fluorescent glass in which an ionic fluorescent material or an organic / inorganic fluorescent component is dissolved and dispersed uniformly and transparently.

[III-2. Combined use of inorganic oxide particles)
Further, the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is further subjected to inorganic oxidation for the purpose of improving optical characteristics and workability, and for obtaining any of the following effects <1> to <5>. Material particles may be included.

<1> By mixing inorganic oxide particles as a light-scattering substance in a member for a semiconductor light-emitting device and scattering the light of the semiconductor light-emitting device, the light amount of the semiconductor light-emitting element that hits the phosphor is increased and the wavelength conversion efficiency is improved. At the same time, the directivity angle of light emitted from the semiconductor light emitting device to the outside is expanded.
<2> The generation of cracks is prevented by blending inorganic oxide particles as a binder in the semiconductor light emitting device member.
<3> By adding inorganic oxide particles as a viscosity modifier to the semiconductor light emitting device member forming liquid, the viscosity of the forming liquid is increased.
<4> The shrinkage is reduced by blending the inorganic oxide particles in the semiconductor light emitting device member.
<5> By blending inorganic oxide particles with the semiconductor light emitting device member, the refractive index is adjusted to improve the light extraction efficiency.

  In this case, an appropriate amount of inorganic oxide particles may be mixed in the semiconductor light emitting device member forming liquid together with the phosphor powder according to the purpose. In this case, the effect obtained depends on the type and amount of the inorganic oxide particles to be mixed.

  For example, when the inorganic oxide particles are ultrafine silica having a particle size of about 10 nm (product name: AEROSIL # 200, manufactured by Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.), the thixotropic property of the member forming liquid for semiconductor light emitting devices is increased. The effect <3> is great.

  In addition, when the inorganic oxide particles are crushed silica or spherical silica having a particle size of about several μm, there is almost no increase in thixotropic property, and the function as an aggregate of a member for a semiconductor light emitting device is the center. The effects of 2> and <4> are great.

  Further, when inorganic oxide particles having a particle diameter of about 1 μm, which has a refractive index different from that of the semiconductor light emitting device member, are used, light scattering at the interface between the semiconductor light emitting device member and the inorganic oxide particles becomes large. The effect of> is great.

  In addition, when inorganic oxide particles having a particle size of 3 to 5 nm, specifically a particle diameter equal to or smaller than the emission wavelength, are used, the transparency of the semiconductor light-emitting device member is maintained while the refractive index is larger than that of the semiconductor light-emitting device member. Since the refractive index can be improved, the effect <5> is great.

  Accordingly, the type of inorganic oxide particles to be mixed may be selected according to the purpose. Moreover, the kind may be single and may combine multiple types. Moreover, in order to improve dispersibility, it may be surface-treated with a surface treatment agent such as a silane coupling agent.

  Examples of inorganic oxide particles to be used include silica, barium titanate, titanium oxide, zirconium oxide, niobium oxide, aluminum oxide, cerium oxide, yttrium oxide, etc., but other substances can be selected depending on the purpose. However, the present invention is not limited to these.

  The form of the inorganic oxide particles may be any form depending on the purpose, such as powder form, slurry form, etc., but if necessary to maintain transparency, the refractive index of the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention is equivalent, It is preferable to add it as a water-based / solvent-based transparent sol to the member-forming liquid for semiconductor light-emitting devices.

[IV. Semiconductor light emitting device]
Hereinafter, a semiconductor light emitting device using the member for a semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention (semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention) will be described with reference to embodiments. In each of the following embodiments, the semiconductor light emitting device is appropriately abbreviated as “light emitting device”. Further, to which part the member for the semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is used will be described collectively after the description of all the embodiments. However, these embodiments are merely used for convenience of explanation, and examples of light-emitting devices (semiconductor light-emitting devices) to which the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention is applied are limited to these embodiments. is not.

〔Basic concept〕
The semiconductor light emitting device using the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention has application examples of the following A) and B), for example. The member for a semiconductor light-emitting device of the present invention shows excellent light durability and thermal durability in any application example as compared with a conventional member for a semiconductor light-emitting device, is less prone to cracking and peeling, and has a luminance of There is little decrease. Therefore, according to the semiconductor light emitting device member of the present invention, a highly reliable member can be provided over a long period of time.
A) A semiconductor light emitting device that uses the light emission color of the light emitting element as it is.
B) A semiconductor in which a phosphor part is disposed in the vicinity of the light emitting element, the phosphor and the phosphor component in the phosphor part are excited by light from the light emitting element, and light having a desired wavelength is emitted using the fluorescence. Light emitting device.

  In the application example of A), taking advantage of the high durability, transparency and sealing agent performance of the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention, a high durability sealing agent, a light extraction film, and various functional components are retained when used alone. It can be used as an agent. In particular, when the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention is used as a functional component retaining agent that retains the inorganic oxide particles and the like, the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the present invention retains a transparent high refractive component, By using the semiconductor light-emitting device member of the invention in close contact with the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element and making the refractive index close to that of the light-emitting element, reflection on the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element is reduced, and higher light extraction efficiency Can be obtained.

  Moreover, also in the application example of B), the member for semiconductor light-emitting devices of the present invention can exhibit the same excellent performance as the application example of the above A), and retains the phosphor and the phosphor component. By doing so, a phosphor part with high durability and high light extraction efficiency can be formed. Further, when the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is held together with a transparent high refractive component in addition to the phosphor and the phosphor component, the refractive index of the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is changed to a light emitting element or phosphor. By setting the refractive index in the vicinity, the interface reflection can be reduced and higher light extraction efficiency can be obtained.

  Below, the basic concept of each embodiment to which the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIGS. 49 (a) and 49 (b). FIG. 49 is an explanatory diagram of the basic concept of each embodiment. (A) corresponds to the application example of the above A), and (b) corresponds to the application example of the above B).

  The light-emitting devices (semiconductor light-emitting devices) 1A and 1B of the respective embodiments are, as shown in FIGS. 49 (a) and 49 (b), a light-emitting element 2 composed of LED chips and a book disposed near the light-emitting element 2. The semiconductor light emitting device members 3A and 3B of the invention are provided.

  However, in the embodiments (embodiments A-1 and A-2) corresponding to the application example of A) as shown in FIG. 49A, the light-emitting device 1A has a phosphor on the semiconductor light-emitting device member 3A. And does not contain phosphor components. In this case, the semiconductor light emitting device member 3 </ b> A exhibits functions such as sealing of the light emitting element 2, light extraction function, and functional component retention. In the following description, the semiconductor device member 3A containing no phosphor or phosphor component is appropriately referred to as a “transparent member”.

  On the other hand, in the embodiment (embodiments B-1 to B-40) corresponding to the application example of B) as shown in FIG. 49 (b), the light emitting device 1B has a phosphor on the semiconductor light emitting device member 3B. And phosphor components. In this case, the semiconductor device member 3B can exhibit a wavelength conversion function in addition to the various functions that the semiconductor device member 3A of FIG. 49A can exhibit. In the following description, the semiconductor device member 3B containing a phosphor or a phosphor component is appropriately referred to as a “phosphor portion”. Further, the phosphor portion may be appropriately indicated by reference numerals 33 and 34 according to the shape and function thereof.

  The light emitting element 2 is constituted by, for example, an LED chip that emits blue light or ultraviolet light, but may be an LED chip of a light emitting color other than these.

  In addition, the transparent member 3A exhibits functions such as a highly durable sealant, a light extraction film, and various function-added films of the light emitting element 2. The transparent member 3A may be used alone, but an optional additive can be contained unless the phosphor and the phosphor component are excluded unless the effects of the present invention are significantly impaired.

  On the other hand, the phosphor portion 3B can exhibit functions such as a highly durable sealant, a light extraction film, and various function-added films of the light-emitting element 2, and is excited by light from the light-emitting element 2 to have a desired wavelength. It exhibits a wavelength conversion function for emitting light. The phosphor portion 3B only needs to include at least a fluorescent material that is excited by light from the light emitting element 2 and emits light of a desired wavelength. Examples of such fluorescent materials include the various phosphors exemplified above. As a luminescent color of the phosphor portion 3B, the three primary colors of red (R), green (G), and blue (B) can be used, as well as white such as a fluorescent lamp and yellow such as a light bulb. In short, the phosphor portion 3B has a wavelength conversion function of emitting light having a desired wavelength different from the excitation light.

  In the above-described light emitting device 1A shown in FIG. 49A, the light 4 emitted from the light emitting element 2 passes through the transparent member 3A and is emitted outside the light emitting device 1A. Therefore, in the light-emitting device 1 </ b> A, the light 4 emitted from the light-emitting element 2 is used as it is in the emission color when emitted from the light-emitting element 2.

  On the other hand, in the light emitting device 1B shown in FIG. 49B, a part 4a of the light emitted from the light emitting element 2 passes through the phosphor portion 3B as it is and is emitted to the outside of the light emitting device 1B. Further, in the light emitting device 1B, the other part 4b of the light emitted from the light emitting element 2 is absorbed by the phosphor part 3B to excite the phosphor part 3B, and the phosphor particles contained in the phosphor part 3B, Light 5 having a wavelength peculiar to fluorescent components such as fluorescent ions and fluorescent dyes is emitted to the outside of the light emitting device 1B.

  Therefore, from the light emitting device 1B, the combined light 6 of the light 4a emitted from the light emitting element 2 and transmitted through the phosphor portion 3B and the light 5 emitted from the phosphor portion 3B is emitted as wavelength-converted light. Therefore, the light emission color of the light emitting device 1B as a whole is determined by the light emission color of the light emitting element 2 and the light emission color of the phosphor portion 3B. The light 4a emitted from the light emitting element 2 and transmitted through the phosphor portion 3B is not always necessary.

Has been. The conductive wires 15 and 15 have a small cross-sectional area so as not to block light emitted from the light emitting element 2.

  Here, as the light emitting element 2, an element emitting light of any wavelength from the ultraviolet to the infrared range may be used, but here, a gallium nitride LED chip is used. In addition, the light emitting element 2 has an n-type semiconductor layer (not shown) formed on the lower surface side in FIG. 1 and a p-type semiconductor layer (not shown) formed on the upper surface side, and light output from the p-type semiconductor layer side.

Moreover, since cracks and peeling do not easily occur in the sealing portion 3A, the transparency of the sealing portion 3A can be increased.

  Furthermore, light color unevenness and light color variation can be reduced as compared with the conventional case, and the light extraction efficiency can be increased.

That's fine. As a result, in addition to the various effects mentioned above, it is possible to obtain an effect of enhancing the retention of the phosphor.

[Applications of semiconductor light-emitting devices]
The semiconductor light emitting device can be used for a light emitting device, for example. In the case where a semiconductor light emitting device is used for a light emitting device, the light emitting device may be provided with a phosphor containing layer containing a mixture of a red phosphor, a blue phosphor and a green phosphor on a light source. In this case, the red phosphor does not necessarily have to be mixed in the same layer as the blue phosphor and the green phosphor. For example, the red phosphor is placed on the layer containing the blue phosphor and the green phosphor. The layer to contain may be laminated | stacked.

  As the sealing resin used, the member for semiconductor light emitting device of the present invention can be used. Other resins can also be used. Examples of such a resin usually include a thermoplastic resin, a thermosetting resin, and a photocurable resin. Specifically, for example, methacrylic resin such as polymethylmethacrylate; styrene resin such as polystyrene and styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer; polycarbonate resin; polyester resin; phenoxy resin; butyral resin; polyvinyl alcohol; Cellulose resins such as cellulose acetate butyrate; epoxy resins; phenol resins; silicone resins. Further, an inorganic material such as a siloxane bond formed by solidifying a solution obtained by hydrolytic polymerization of a solution containing an inorganic material such as a metal alkoxide, ceramic precursor polymer or metal alkoxide by a sol-gel method, or a combination thereof.

The light source is not particularly limited as long as it emits light having a peak wavelength in the range of 350 nm to 500 nm, and specific examples include a light emitting diode (LED) or a laser diode (LD). Of these, GaN LEDs and LDs using GaN compound semiconductors are preferred. This is because GaN-based LEDs and LDs have significantly larger light emission output and external quantum efficiency than SiC-based LEDs that emit light in this region, and are extremely bright with very low power when combined with the phosphor.

A GaN-based LED has these light-emitting layer, p-layer, n-layer, electrode, and substrate as basic constituent elements. The light-emitting layer is made of n-type and p-type Al _x Ga _y N layers, GaN layers, or In _x. Those having a heterostructure sandwiched between Ga _Y N layers and the like have high luminous efficiency, and those having a heterostructure having a quantum well structure have higher luminous efficiency and are more preferable.

  The light emitting device emits white light, and the light emission efficiency of the device is 20 lm / W or more, preferably 22 lm / W or more, more preferably 25 lm / W or more, and particularly preferably 28 lm / W or more. The color rendering index Ra is 80 or more, preferably 85 or more, more preferably 88 or more.
