Abstract

The present invention relates to a white light emitting diode comprising a blue light emitting diode chip; a green light emitting diode chip; and a molding member that encapsulates the blue light emitting diode chip and the green light emitting diode chip, the molding member containing a red fluorescent substance.

Claims (10)

1. A white light emitting diode, comprising:

a substrate;

first, second, third, and fourth terminals on the substrate;

a blue light emitting diode chip on the first terminal and in electrical communication with the first and second terminals;

a green light emitting diode chip on the third terminal and in electrical communication with the third and fourth terminals; and

a molding member for encapsulating the blue light emitting diode chip and the green light emitting diode chip, wherein the molding member comprises a red fluorescent substance, and further wherein the blue light emitting diode chip and the green light emitting diode chip are electrically isolated from each other, and further wherein the blue light emitting diode chip and the green light emitting diode chip are disposed diagonally across from each other and, within the molding member, the second terminal and fourth terminal are disposed diagonally across from each other.

2. The white light emitting diode as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the red fluorescent substance comprises (Sr 1-x Eu x )S or (Ca 1-x Eu x )S where x is 0.001 to 0.02.

3. The white light emitting diode as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the molding member comprises a resin.

4. The white light emitting diode as claimed in claim 2 ,

wherein a reflective portion is arranged on the substrate to reflect light emitted from the light emitting diode chips in a predetermined direction.
