Abstract

Disclosed is a light emitting device, and more particularly are a light emitting device package configured to improve the quality of light and a lighting apparatus using the same. The light emitting device package includes a light emitting device located on a package main body, the light emitting device including a first light emitting device configured to emit light having a first wavelength band and a second light emitting device configured to emit light having a second wavelength band, a lens disposed over the light emitting device, and a wavelength conversion layer disposed over the lens, the wavelength conversion layer serving to absorb light having the first wavelength band or the second wavelength band so as to emit light having a third wavelength band.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A light emitting device package comprising:
a light emitting device located on a package main body, the light emitting device including a first light emitting device configured to emit light having a first wavelength band and a second light emitting device configured to emit light having a second wavelength band;
a lens disposed over the light emitting device; and
a wavelength conversion layer disposed over the lens, the wavelength conversion layer serving to absorb light having the first wavelength band or the second wavelength band so as to emit light having a third wavelength band, wherein the wavelength conversion layer includes a first portion substantially having a linear vertical cross section and a second portion having a curvilinear vertical cross section, wherein an area of the second portion is substantially larger than an area of the first portion, wherein a reflecting layer is provided on an edge of the second portion, and
wherein the wavelength conversion layer has an opening, and the reflecting layer is provided over the opening.

2. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the lens is a spherical lens.

3. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the wavelength conversion layer has a constant thickness over the lens.

4. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device respectively include a plurality of light emitting devices configured to emit light having substantially the same wavelength band.

5. The package according to claim 4 , wherein the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device are located symmetrically to each other.

6. The package according to claim 5 , wherein the second light emitting device is located at the center of the package main body, and the first light emitting device is located at either side of the second light emitting device.

7. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the wavelength conversion layer is configured to output yellow light.

8. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the first wavelength band is a blue light band and the second wavelength band is a red light band.

9. The package according to claim 1 , wherein a main wavelength of the first wavelength band is 450 nm, a main wavelength of the second wavelength band is 615 nm, and a main wavelength of the wavelength conversion layer is 555 nm.

10. A light emitting device package comprising:
a light emitting device located on a package main body, the light emitting device including a first light emitting device configured to emit light having a first wavelength band and a second light emitting device configured to emit light having a second wavelength band;
a lens disposed over the light emitting device, wherein the lens has a shape, an area of which increases with increasing distance from the light emitting device such that the lens has a first side relatively close to the light emitting device and a second side relatively far from the light emitting device, and wherein an area of the second side is substantially larger than an area of the first side;
a wavelength conversion layer disposed over the lens, the wavelength conversion layer serving to absorb light having the first wavelength band or the second wavelength band to emit light having a third wavelength band;
a first reflecting layer outwardly spaced apart from the wavelength conversion layer, the first reflecting layer serving to reflect light emitted from the light emitting device and the wavelength conversion layer so as to outwardly emit light from the package; and
a second reflecting layer provided on the second side of the lens,
wherein the wavelength conversion layer has an opening, and the second reflecting layer is provided over the opening.

11. The package according to claim 10 , wherein the lens is configured to allow light, emitted from the light emitting device, to be distributed such that a viewing angle of light is greater than that in Lambertian light.

12. The package according to claim 10 , wherein the second reflecting layer contacts the wavelength conversion layer.

13. The package according to claim 12 , wherein the second reflecting layer is located parallel to a surface of the package main body on which the light emitting device is located.

14. The package according to claim 10 , wherein the wavelength conversion layer has a constant thickness over the lens.

15. The package according to claim 10 , wherein the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device respectively include a plurality of light emitting devices configured to emit light having substantially the same wavelength band.

16. The package according to claim 15 , wherein the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device are located symmetrically to each other.

17. The package according to claim 16 , wherein the second light emitting device is located at the center of the package main body, and the first light emitting device is located at either side of the second light emitting device.

18. The package according to claim 10 , wherein the first wavelength band is a blue light band and the second wavelength band is a red light band.

19. The package according to claim 10 , wherein the wavelength conversion layer includes a first portion substantially having a linear vertical cross section and a second portion having a curvilinear vertical cross section.

20. The package according to claim 19 , wherein the second reflecting layer is on the second portion.
