Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A light-emitting device including a light-emitting diode and a surface-modified luminophore. The surface-modified luminophore includes a luminophore including a manganese activator and a fluorine compound fixed to the luminophore.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A light-emitting device, comprising: a light-emitting diode; and a surface-modified luminophore configured to absorb light emitted from the light-emitting diode and configured to emit light having a different wavelength from the absorbed light, wherein the surface-modified luminophore comprises a fluoride luminophore comprising a manganese activator and a fluorine compound fixed to the luminophore, the fluoride luminophore selected from the group consisting of K 2 SiF 6 , Na 2 SiF 6 , Rb 2 SiF 6 , K 2 GeF 6 , Na 2 GeF 6 , and Rb 2 GeF 6 . 2. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising: a package body; a chip mounting part disposed on the package body; and a lead terminal disposed on the package body and spaced apart from the chip mounting part; wherein the chip mounting part comprises a lower portion having a lower surface exposed outside of the package body. 3. The light-emitting device of claim 2 , wherein the lead terminal comprises: a first end disposed outside of the package body; and a surface parallel to the lower surface of the chip mounting part. 4. The light-emitting device of claim 2 , wherein the lead terminal comprises: a second end disposed inside the package body; and a surface parallel to the lower surface of the chip mounting part. 5. The light-emitting device of claim 2 , wherein the chip mounting part comprises a recessed portion comprising a flat surface. 6. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the surface-modified luminophore further comprises a coating comprising non-fluorinated layer-forming materials. 7. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising a quantum dot (QD) luminophore configured to emit green light, wherein the fluoride luminophore is configured to emit red light. 8. A light-emitting device, comprising: a first light-emitting diode; and a surface-modified luminophore configured to absorb light emitted from the first light-emitting diode and configured to emit light having a different wavelength from the absorbed light, wherein: the surface-modified luminophore has the general formula (Me 1+ ,Me 2+ ,Me 3+ ) x .(Si,Al,B,P,V,N,C,Ge) y .(O,N,F) z :(A,F 1 ,S); A is a manganese activator; F 1 is a surface fixed fluorine or fluorine compound; S is a coating comprising non-fluorinated layer-forming materials; Me 1+ is a monovalent metal; Me 2+ is a divalent metal; Me 3+ is a Group III or lanthanoid trivalent metal; 0<x<5, 0<y<12, and 0<z<24; the surface-modified luminophore comprises a fluoride luminophore; and the fluoride luminophore is selected from the group consisting of K 2 SiF 6 , Na 2 SiF 6 , Rb 2 SiF 6 , K 2 GeF 6 , Na 2 GeF 6 , and Rb 2 GeF 6 . 9. The light-emitting device of claim 8 , further comprising a quantum dot (QD) luminophore configured to emit green light, wherein the fluoride luminophore is configured to emit red light. 10. The light-emitting device of claim 9 , wherein the surface-modified luminophore comprises a coating comprising non-fluorinated layer-forming materials.
