Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device includes providing a case including an annular sidewall and an LED chip including a chip substrate and a crystal layer and mounted in a region surrounded by the sidewall of the case, and dripping a droplet of an electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin so as to fill a space between the sidewall and the LED chip. The droplet is attracted toward the sidewall by an electrostatic force during the dripping.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device, comprising: providing a case comprising: an annular sidewall; and a light-emitting diode (LED) chip, the LED chip comprising: a chip substrate; and a crystal layer, the LED chip being mounted in a region surrounded by the sidewall of the case; dripping a droplet of an electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin so as to fill a space between the sidewall and the LED chip; and forming a protective resin layer so as to fill a space between the phosphor-containing resin and an upper edge of the sidewall, the protective resin layer not including a phosphor, wherein the droplet is attracted toward the sidewall by an electrostatic force during the dripping, and wherein the phosphor-containing resin is not applied to an upper surface of the LED chip. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the phosphor-containing resin has a relative permittivity of not less than 3. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the droplet has a viscosity of not less than 5 Pas. 4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the droplet is dripped while the crystal layer is grounded. 5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: charging the electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin to have a first charge; and charging the case to have a second charge, the first charge being opposite to the second charge. 6. A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device, comprising: providing a case comprising: an annular sidewall; and a light-emitting diode (LED) chip, the LED chip comprising: a chip substrate; and a crystal layer, the LED chip being mounted in a region surrounded by the sidewall of the case; and dripping a droplet of an electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin so as to fill a space between the sidewall and the LED chip, wherein the droplet is attracted toward the sidewall by an electrostatic force during the dripping, wherein the electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin formed only on a side of the LED chip, wherein at an interface between the region and the side of the LED chip, a height of the resin is substantially equal to a height of the LED chip, and wherein at an interface between the sidewall and the resin, a height of the resin is greater than a height of the resin at the interface between the resin and the LED chip. 7. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the phosphor-containing resin has a relative permittivity of not less than 3. 8. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the droplet has a viscosity of not less than 5 Pas. 9. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the droplet is dripped while the crystal layer is grounded. 10. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin has a first charge and the case has a second charge, the first charge being opposite to the second charge. 11. A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device, comprising: providing a case comprising: an annular sidewall; and a light-emitting diode (LED) chip, the LED chip comprising: a chip substrate; and a crystal layer, the LED chip being mounted in a region surrounded by the sidewall of the case; dripping a droplet of an electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin so as to only fill a space between an upper edge of the sidewall and the LED chip; and forming a protective resin layer so as to fill a space between the phosphor-containing resin and an upper edge of the sidewall, the protective resin layer not including a phosphor, wherein the droplet is attracted toward the sidewall by an electrostatic force during the dripping. 12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the phosphor-containing resin has a relative permittivity of not less than 3. 13. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the droplet has a viscosity of not less than 5 Pas. 14. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the droplet is dripped while the crystal layer is grounded. 15. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the electrically-charged phosphor-containing resin has a first charge and the case has a second charge, the first charge being opposite to the second charge.
