Abstract

A substrate for mounting a light-emitting element, containing a substrate main body having a mounting surface on which a light-emitting element is to be mounted, a reflection layer formed on a part of the mounting surface of the substrate main body and containing silver to reflect light emitted from the light-emitting element, and a vitreous insulating layer formed on the reflection layer, wherein the vitreous insulating layer contains a glass containing SiO 2 , at least one of Al 2 O 3 and B 2 O 3 , and at least one member selected from Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O, wherein (Li 2 O+Na 2 O+K 2 O)—Al 2 O 3 is from −20 to 1.5% and Si0 2 +3×Al 2 O 3 is at most 90% calculated using the mol % of each of said SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 B 2 O 3 , Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O in said glass.

Claims (8)

1. A substrate for mounting a light-emitting element, which comprises a substrate main body having a mounting surface on which a light-emitting element can be mounted, a reflection layer formed on a part of the mounting surface of the substrate main body and comprising silver to reflect light emitted from the light-emitting element when mounted, and a vitreous insulating layer formed on the reflection layer, wherein the vitreous insulating layer comprises a glass comprising SiO 2 , at least one of Al 2 O 3 and B 2 O 3 , and at least one member selected from Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O, wherein (Li 2 O+Na 2 O+K 2 O)—Al 2 O 3 is from −20 to 1.5% and SiO 2 +(3×Al 2 O 3 ) is at most 90% calculated using the mol % of each of said SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 B 2 O 3 , Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O in said glass.

2. The substrate for mounting a light-emitting element according to claim 1 , wherein the glass comprises, as represented by mol % based on 100 mol %, from 35 to 85% of SiO 2 , from 0 to 20% of Al 2 O 3 , from 0 to 25% of B 2 O 3 , more than 5 to 40% of at least one member selected from CaO, SrO and BaO, from 0 to 40% of CaO, from 0 to 14% of SrO and from 0 to 7% of BaO, and more than 1 to 7% of at least one member selected from Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O.

3. The substrate for mounting a light-emitting element according to claim 1 , wherein the glass comprises, as represented by mol % based on 100 mol %, from 35 to 85% of SiO 2 , more than 5 to 20% of Al 2 O 3 , from 0 to 25% of B 2 O 3 , from 0 to 5% of at least one member selected from CaO, SrO and BaO, and more than 1 to 7% of at least one member selected from Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O.

4. The substrate for mounting a light-emitting element according to claim 1 , wherein the glass comprises, as represented by mol % based on 100 mol %, from 35 to 70% of SiO 2 , from 1 to 15% of Al 2 O 3 , from 7 to 25% of B 2 O 3 , from 0 to 30% of at least one member selected from CaO, SrO and BaO, and more than 1 to 7% of at least one member selected from Li 2 O, Na 2 O and K 2 O.

5. The substrate for mounting a light-emitting element according to claim 1 , wherein the vitreous insulating layer further comprises a ceramics filler.

6. The substrate for mounting a light-emitting element according to claim 1 , further comprising a connection terminal area for the light-emitting element formed on the substrate main body, and wherein the vitreous insulating layer is formed in a region other than the connection terminal area.

7. The substrate for mounting a light-emitting element according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate main body has a concave, and the bottom surface of the concave is the mounting surface on which a light-emitting element can be mounted.

8. A light-emitting device, comprising the substrate for mounting a light-emitting element as defined in claim 1 , a light-emitting element mounted on the vitreous insulating layer of the substrate for mounting a light-emitting element, and a phosphor layer covering the light-emitting element.
