Abstract

The present invention provides a light emitting diode (LED) package and the fabrication method thereof. The LED package includes a lower metal layer, and a first silicon layer, a first insulation layer, a second silicon layer, a second insulation layer, and a package electrode pattern formed in their order on the lower metal layer. The LED package also includes a spacer having a cavity, formed on the electrode pattern. The LED package further includes an LED mounted in the cavity by flip-chip bonding to the electrode patterns, and an optical element attached to the upper surface of the spacer.

Claims (14)

1. A light emitting diode package comprising:

a lower metal layer;

a first silicon layer, a first insulation layer, a second silicon layer, a second insulation layer and a package electrode pattern formed in their order on the lower metal layer;

a spacer having a cavity, formed on the package electrode pattern;

an LED mounted in the cavity, flip-chip bonded to the package electrode pattern; and

an optical element adhered to the upper surface of the spacer.

2. The light emitting diode package according to claim 1 , wherein the lower metal layer comprises a metal film formed on the lower surface of the first silicon layer, and a metal core layer electroplated on the lower surface of the metal film.

3. The light emitting diode package according to claim 2 , wherein the metal core layer is formed only in an area corresponding to the mounting area of the LED.

4. The light emitting diode package according to claim 1 , wherein the lower metal layer is in contact with the first insulation layer in an area corresponding to the mounting area of the LED.

5. The light emitting diode package according to claim 1 , wherein the spacer is made of silicon.

6. The light emitting diode package according to claim 1 , wherein the spacer is made of insulation resin.

7. The light emitting diode package according to claim 1 , wherein a reflective metal film is formed on the wall surface of the cavity.

8. The light emitting diode package according to claim 7 , wherein the reflective metal film is made of Ag or Al.

9. The light emitting diode package according to claim 1 , wherein the first insulation layer and the second insulation layer comprise thermal oxide films.
