Abstract

A light emitting diode (LED) is provided with a base substrate, a plurality of light emitting chips disposed on the upper surface of the base substrate and electrically coupled in parallel to one another, and a fluorescent material layer for covering the light emitting chips.

Claims (18)

1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:

a plurality of light emitting diodes, each of the light emitting diodes comprising, a base substrate having lower surface and upper surface, a plurality of light emitting chips disposed on the upper surface of the base substrate and electrically coupled to one another in parallel;

a fluorescent material layer covering the light emitting chips;

a liquid crystal panel that is positioned to receive light from the light emitting diodes and includes two panels and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the two panels; and

wires formed on the lower surface of the base substrate to electrically connect the at least two light emitting chips in parallel,

wherein the fluorescent material layer comprises red fluorescent material and green fluorescent material,

wherein the base substrate comprises a PCB substrate and a heat sink substrate attached on the PCB substrate, and wherein the wires are formed on a lower surface of the PCB substrate and the plurality of light emitting chips are positioned on an upper surface of the heat sink substrate.

2. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the base substrate has a plurality of through-holes associated with the plurality of light emitting chips, and wherein each of the light emitting diode further comprises a first plug and a second plug connecting a first electrode and a second electrode of a particular light emitting chip of the plurality of light emitting chips with the wires through one or more through-holes associated with the particular light emitting chip.

3. The liquid crystal display device of claim 2 , wherein the heat sink substrate comprises metal.

4. The liquid crystal display device of claim 3 , further comprising one or more chip base films formed on the heat sink substrate to insulate the first electrode and the second electrode of the particular light emitting chip from the heat sink substrate.

5. The liquid crystal display device of claim 4 , further comprising one or more through-hole films formed on at least a portion of a surface of the one or more through-holes associated with the particular light emitting chip to insulate the first plug and the second plug from the heat sink substrate.

6. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of light emitting chips emit blue light.

7. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of light emitting chips emit blue light and ultraviolet light.

8. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , further comprising a molding resin layer covering the fluorescent material layer.

9. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of grooves are formed on the upper surface of the base substrate, and wherein one or more of the plurality of light emitting chips are positioned at least partially within an associated groove of the plurality of grooves.

10. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , further comprising a reflecting layer formed on the upper surface of the base substrate.

11. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , wherein the liquid crystal panel includes a first side and a second side, and wherein the liquid crystal device further comprises a first polarizer disposed on the first side of the liquid crystal panel and a second polarizer disposed on the second side of the liquid crystal panel.

12. The liquid crystal display device of claim 1 , further comprising one or more optical films positioned at least partially between the light emitting diodes and the liquid crystal panel.
