[0029] FIG. 1 to FIG. 7 are partial stereoscopic diagrams of various stages of manufacturing the light-emitting device 100 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, some components of the light-emitting device 100 have been omitted in FIG. 1 to FIG. 7.

[0030] Referring to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, a connection board 20 is provided. The connection board 20 has multiple first pads 20N, multiple second pads 20P1, and multiple third pads 20P2. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, a first pad 20N may be arranged adjacent to a second pad 20P1 and a third pad 20P2 to form a group of electrical connection structures. The connection board 20 may include multiple groups of electrical connection structures that are arranged in a row (or an array). However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0031] In some embodiments, the connection board 20 is a ceramic substrate, and the first pads 20N, the second pads 20P1, and the third pads 20P2 include conductive materials such as metals, metal silicides, similar materials, or combinations thereof. For example, the metal may include gold (Au), nickel (Ni), platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), iridium (Ir), titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr), tungsten (W), aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), the like, an alloy thereof, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the first pads 20N, the second pads 20P1, and the third pads 20P2 may be formed by physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), evaporation, sputtering, the like, or a combination thereof. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0032] Referring to FIG. 2, in some embodiments, a first light-emitting element 31 and a second light-emitting element 32 are formed on the connection board 20, and the second light-emitting element 32 is adjacent to the first light-emitting element 31. In this embodiment, there are multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and multiple second light-emitting elements 32 on the connection board 20, and these first light-emitting elements 31 and second light-emitting elements 32 are arranged in a row or an array. As shown in FIG. 2, in some embodiments, each first light-emitting element 31 has a first electrode 31N and a second electrode 31P, and each second light-emitting element 32 has a third electrode 32N and a fourth electrode 32P (shown in FIG. 8).

[0033] In some embodiments, the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 are micro LED chips. The micro LED chip may include an n-type semiconductor layer, a light-emitting layer, and a p-type semiconductor layer (not detailed), and the light-emitting layer is between the n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer. The n-type semiconductor layer, the light-emitting layer, and the p-type semiconductor layer may be formed by an epitaxial growth process, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The light emitted by the micro LED chip is determined by the light-emitting layer. In this embodiment, both the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 emit blue light. That is, the light-emitting layers of the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 may emit blue light, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0034] The n-type semiconductor layer may include II-VI group materials (e.g., zinc selenide (ZnSe)) or III-V group materials (e.g., gallium nitride (GaN), aluminum nitride (AlN), indium nitride (InN), indium gallium nitride (InGaN), aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) or aluminum indium gallium nitride (AlInGaN)), and the n-type semiconductor layer may include dopants such as silicon (Si) or germanium (Ge), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0035] The light-emitting layer may include one undoped semiconductor layer or at least one lightly doped layer. For example, the light-emitting layer may be a quantum well (QW) layer, which may include indium gallium nitride (In.sub.xGa.sub.1-xN), gallium nitride (GaN), aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) or aluminum indium gallium nitride (AlInGaN), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Alternatively, the light-emitting layer may also be a multiple quantum well (MQW) layer.

[0036] The p-type semiconductor layer may include II-VI group materials (e.g., zinc selenide (ZnSe)) or III-V group materials (e.g., gallium nitride (GaN), aluminum nitride (AlN), indium nitride (InN), indium gallium nitride (InGaN), aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) or aluminum indium gallium nitride (AlInGaN)), and the p-type semiconductor layer may include dopants such as magnesium (Mg), carbon (C), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Additionally, the n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer may be a single layer or multilayer structure.

[0037] Furthermore, the first electrode 31N of the first light-emitting element 31 is electrically connected to the n-type semiconductor layer of the first light-emitting element 31, and the second electrode 31P of the first light-emitting element 31 is electrically connected to the p-type semiconductor layer of the first light-emitting element 31. Similarly, the third electrode 32N of the second light-emitting element 32 is electrically connected to the n-type semiconductor layer of the second light-emitting element 32, and the fourth electrode 32P of the second light-emitting element 32 is electrically connected to the p-type semiconductor layer of the second light-emitting element 32. For example, the first electrode 31N and the second electrode 31P of the first light-emitting element 31 and the third electrode 32N and the fourth electrode 32P of the second light-emitting element 32 include conductive materials, the examples of which have been mentioned above and will not be repeated here.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 (and later FIG. 8), in some embodiments, the first electrode 31N of the first light-emitting element 31 and the third electrode 32N of the second light-emitting element 32 are electrically connected to the first pad 20N, the second electrode 31P of the first light-emitting element 31 is electrically connected to the second pad 20P1, and the fourth electrode 32P of the second light-emitting element 32 is electrically connected to the third pad 20P2. In other words, the first electrode 31N of the first light-emitting element 31 and the corresponding (i.e., adjacent) third electrode 32N of the second light-emitting element 32 may share the same pad.

[0039] Referring to FIG. 3, in some embodiments, a first isolation structure 51 is formed between and around the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. In other words, the first isolation structure 51 surrounds the periphery of multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and second light-emitting elements 32 and is disposed between the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. In some embodiments, the first isolation structure 51 includes reflective or scattering materials and transparent adhesive materials. Reflective or scattering materials include titanium dioxide (TiO.sub.2) or silicon oxide (SiO.sub.x), and transparent adhesive materials include silicone resin, epoxy resin, or B-stage resin, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. B-stage resin refers to a two-stage thermosetting adhesive that requires secondary baking to be fully cured. B-stage refers to the reaction between the resin and the curing agent to form a semi-cured solid, which can become fully cured after further heat curing. In some embodiments, the first isolation structure 51 is formed by mixing TiO.sub.2 microparticles with a silicone resin uniformly, with a weight percentage wt %>20% and a particle size<1 m, to form a white adhesive, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0040] Here, the first isolation structure 51 (e.g., the white adhesive) may reflect/scatter the light emitted by the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 (e.g., blue light) to direct the lights emit upwards as much as possible, thereby greatly improving the upward light emission efficiency of the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32.

[0041] In some other embodiments, the first isolation structure 51 includes light-absorbing materials to reduce the crosstalk of each light-emitting element emitting light sideways, for example, the light from the first light-emitting element 31 leaks into the second light-emitting element 32 when the first light-emitting element 31 is selectively turned on and the second light-emitting element 32 is selectively turned off, which causes the dark area not as dark as expected. In some embodiments, light-absorbing materials include black carbon powder, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The first isolation structure 51 may be a black adhesive. In some embodiments, the first isolation structure 51 is formed by mixing black carbon powder with a silicone resin uniformly, with a weight percentage wt %>1% and a particle size<5 m, to form a black adhesive.

[0042] In some other embodiments, the first isolation structure 51 includes both light-absorbing materials and reflective/scattering materials, having both reflection and absorption of light emitted sideways from the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32, to enhance the upward light emission efficiency of each light-emitting element and reduce the crosstalk from the light emitted sideways by each light-emitting element.

[0043] Referring to FIG. 4, in some embodiments, a light-converting layer 40 is formed on the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. In this embodiment, the light-converting layer 40 is phosphor glass, which is made by dispersing phosphor uniformly in glass using a low melting temperature technique that can effectively improve the thermal quenching of fluorescence. In some embodiments, the light-converting layer 40 converts part of the light (e.g., blue light) emitted by the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 into yellow light, and the light from the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 that is not absorbed (e.g., blue light) can be mixed with the light from the light-converting layer 40 (e.g., yellow light) to form white light, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the method for forming a light-converting layer 40 on the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 further includes using a transparent silicone resin (not shown in the figure) to attach the light-converting layer 40 to the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32.

[0044] The colors of the light emitted by the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32, and the color of the light from the light-converting layer 40 (or the color converted from the light emitted by the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32) can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0045] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, after electrically connecting the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 to the connection board 20, a transparent silicone resin (not drawn in the figure) may be used to attach the light-converting layer 40 to the top surfaces of the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. Then, the injection compression molding process is used to fill the sides and bottom of the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32 with white or black adhesive material (i.e., the first isolation structure 51) to complete a structure similar to that shown in FIG. 4.

[0046] Referring to FIG. 5, in some embodiments, the light-converting layer 40 is diced to form multiple light-converting segments 40S correspond to the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. For example, the light-converting layer 40 may be diced with a very small spacing (e.g., less than 50 m) to form grooves and multiple separated (or partially connected) light-converting segments 40S.

[0047] Then, referring to FIG. 6, in some embodiments, a second isolation structure 52 is formed between and around these light-converting segments 40S. In other words, in this embodiment, the second isolation structure 52 surrounds the light-converting layer 40, and a portion of the second isolation structure 52 is within the light-converting layer 40, dividing the light-converting layer 40 into multiple light-converting segments 40S that respectively correspond to the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32.

[0048] In some embodiments, the second isolation structure 52 includes light-absorbing materials. For example, light-absorbing materials include black carbon powder, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The second isolation structure 52 may be a black adhesive. In some embodiments, the second isolation structure 52 is formed by mixing black carbon powder with a silicone resin uniformly, with a weight percentage wt %>1% and a particle size<5 m, to form a black adhesive.

[0049] The second isolation structure 52 may absorb the light scattered sideways in the light-converting segment 40S, forming unidirectional light output upwards, thereby significantly enhancing the contrast between the brightness and darkness of the light (e.g., white light), and reducing cross talk between two adjacent first light-emitting elements 31, two adjacent second light-emitting elements 32, or adjacent first light-emitting element 31 and second light-emitting element 32.

[0050] Referring to FIG. 7, in some embodiments, the connection board 20 is connected to the circuit board 10 to form a light-emitting device 100. In more detail, the circuit board 10 is disposed on a side of the connection board 20 opposite to the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. In some embodiments, the thermal expansion coefficient of the connection board 20 is less than the thermal expansion coefficient of the circuit board 10. In some embodiments, the circuit board 10 is a copper foil substrate, and the connection board 20 is a ceramic substrate, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Because the connection board 20 (e.g., a ceramic substrate) and the circuit board 10 (e.g., a copper foil substrate) may form a downward heat dissipation path, thereby effectively improving the overall heat dissipation performance of the light-emitting device 100.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, in some embodiments, the light-emitting device 100 includes a circuit board 10 and a connection board 20. The connection board 20 is disposed on the circuit board 10 and has a first pad 20N, a second pad 20P1, and a third pad 20P2. The light-emitting device 100 also includes a first light-emitting element 31 and a second light-emitting element 32. The first light-emitting element 31 is disposed on the connection board 20 and has a first electrode 31N and a second electrode 31P. The second light-emitting element 32 is adjacent to the first light-emitting element 31 and has a third electrode 32N and a fourth electrode 32P. The light-emitting device 100 further includes a light-converting layer 40, which is disposed on the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the thermal expansion coefficient of the connection board 20 is less than the thermal expansion coefficient of the circuit board 10.

[0052] FIG. 8 is a partial exploded view illustrating the light-emitting device 100 in FIG. 7 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG. 9 is a partial top view illustrating a portion of the circuit board 10 and the connection board 20 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG. 10 is a partial top view illustrating the circuit board 10 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG. 11 is a top view illustrating the circuit board 10 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Similarly, for the sake of simplicity, some components have been omitted in FIG. 8 to FIG. 11.

[0053] Referring to FIG. 8 to FIG. 11, in some embodiments, the circuit board 10 has one first conductive wire 10N (two first conductive wires 10N are shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 11), multiple second conductive wires 10P1, and multiple third conductive wires 10P2. In addition, in some embodiments, each first pad 20N is electrically connected to the first conductive wire 10N, each second pad 20P1 is electrically connected to the corresponding second conductive wire 10P1, and each third pad 20P2 is electrically connected to the corresponding third conductive wire 10P2. In some embodiments, the first pad 20N, the second pad 20P1, and the third pad 20P2 pass through the connection board 20 (e.g., including an insulating ceramic substrate), and the top view shapes of these three pads correspond to the four electrodes of the corresponding first light-emitting element 31 and second light-emitting element and 32, and the bottom view shapes of these three pads correspond to the three conductive wires on the circuit board 10.

[0054] In more detail, in order to accommodate more light-emitting elements to form an array, a part of the first pad 20N above the connection board 20 (i.e., the first pad 20N_1 shown in FIG. 8) extends longitudinally (e.g., in the Y-direction in FIG. 8) and is simultaneously connected (electrically) to the corresponding pair of the first light-emitting element 31 and the second light-emitting element 32. A part of the first pad 20N below the connection board 20 (i.e., the first pad 20N_2 shown in FIG. 8) extends laterally (e.g., in the X-direction in FIG. 8) to connect all first pads 20N above the connection board 20 of the laterally expanded light-emitting element array (i.e., the first pad 20N_1 shown in FIG. 9) together to electrically connect to the first conductive wire 10N of the circuit board 10.

[0055] Multiple second pads 20P1 and multiple third pads 20P2 respectively connect (electrically) to the corresponding first light-emitting element 31 and the corresponding second light-emitting element 32 above the connection board 20 (i.e., the second pad 20P1_1 and the third pad 20P2_1 shown in FIG. 8). Multiple second pads 20P1 and multiple third pads 20P2 below the connection board 20 respectively connect (electrically) to the corresponding second conductive wire 10P1 and the corresponding third conductive wire 10P2 (i.e., the second pad 20P1_2 and the third pad 20P2_2 shown in FIG. 8). In some embodiments, one first conductive wire 10N extends laterally (e.g., in the X-direction in FIG. 8) on the circuit board 10, and multiple second conductive wires 10P1 and multiple third conductive wires 10P2 extend longitudinally (e.g., in the Y-direction in FIG. 8) on the circuit board 10.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 11, in this embodiment, the connection board 20 uses the design of conductive holes to connect the first electrodes 31N of multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and the third electrodes 32N of multiple second light-emitting elements 32 together at a common electrode through the corresponding first pad 20N. The first pad 20N extends laterally below the connection board 20 and connect (electrically) to the first conductive wire 10N of the circuit board 10. Conversely, the second electrodes 31P of multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and the fourth electrodes 32P of multiple second light-emitting elements 32 are respectively connected to the corresponding second pads 20P1 and the third pads 20P2. The second pads 20P1 and the third pads 20P2 extend longitudinally below the connection board 20 and are separately connected (electrically) to the second conductive wires 10P1 and the third conductive wires 10P2 of the circuit board 10. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0057] In some other embodiments, the polarity of all the electrodes of the light-emitting elements may be reversed. The second electrodes 31P of multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and the fourth electrodes 32P of multiple second light-emitting elements 32 may be connected together at a common electrode, while the first electrodes 31N of multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and the third electrodes 32N of multiple second light-emitting elements 32 are separately connected to corresponding pads.

[0058] In the aforementioned embodiments, through the first pad 20N, the second pad 20P1, and the third pad 20P2 of the connection board 20, and the first conductive wire 10N, the second conductive wire 10P1, and the third conductive wire 10P2 of the circuit board 10, the lateral/longitudinal circuit may be extended outward to connect to the terminals T1 and T2 arranged around the periphery of the circuit board 10 as shown in FIG. 11. Moreover, in the array formed by multiple first light-emitting elements 31 and multiple second light-emitting elements 32, each first light-emitting element 31 and each second light-emitting element 32 can be independently controlled.

[0059] FIG. 12 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating the light-emitting device 100 in FIG. 7 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG. 13 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating the light-emitting device 100 in FIG. 7 according to some other embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG. 14 is a partial cross-sectional view illustrating the light-emitting device 100 in FIG. 7 according to some other embodiments of the present disclosure. Similarly, for the sake of simplicity, some components of the light-emitting device 100 have been omitted in FIG. 12 to FIG. 14.

[0060] As shown in FIG. 12 to FIG. 14, in some embodiments, in a cross-sectional view, the first isolation structure 51 is divided into multiple first isolation segments 51S, and the second isolation structure 52 is divided into multiple second isolation segments 52S. The second isolation segments 52S correspond to the first isolation segments 51S.

[0061] Referring to FIG. 12, in this embodiment, the width W52S of each second isolation segment 52S is smaller than the width W51S of each first isolation segment 51S, and the height H52S of the second isolation segment 52S in the light-converting layer 40 is equal to the thickness H40S of the light-converting layer 40.

[0062] Referring to FIG. 13, in this embodiment, the width W52S of each second isolation segment 52S is smaller than the width W51S of each first isolation segment 51S, and the height H52S of the second isolation segment 52S in the light-converting layer 40 is smaller than the thickness H40S of the light-converting layer 40.

[0063] Referring to FIG. 14, in this embodiment, the width W52S of each second isolation segment 52S is smaller than or equal to the width W51S of each first isolation segment 51S, and the second isolation structure 52 further extends to a space between the first light-emitting component 31 and the second light-emitting component 32.

[0064] In summary, according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the light-emitting device includes a circuit board and a connection board disposed on the circuit board. Therefore, the light-emitting elements can be controlled independently and have a good heat dissipation path. This allows for energy-saving and application in many different fields (e.g., adaptive driving beam (ADB)). Furthermore, the method for manufacturing the light-emitting device according to the embodiments of the present disclosure has advantages of low cost and low complexity.
