Abstract

A light-emitting device of the invention includes a base, at least one light-emitting element, a wavelength transferring cover and a heat-conducting structure. The light-emitting element is disposed on the base and electrically connected to the base. The wavelength transferring cover is disposed on the base and covers the light-emitting element. The heat-conducting structure is disposed on the base and directly contacts the wavelength transferring cover.

Claims (18)

1. A light-emitting device, comprising:

a base;

at least one light-emitting element, disposed on the base and electrically connected to the base;

a wavelength transferring cover, disposed on the base and covering the light-emitting element; and

a heat-conducting structure, disposed on the base and directly contacting the wavelength transferring cover, wherein the heat-conducting structure occupies 5-40% of the surface area of the wavelength transferring cover.

2. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein material of the heat-conducting structure is selected from the group consisting of silver, gold, copper, platinum, tin, aluminium, carbon nanotube, graphene and combinations thereof.

3. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a heat-dissipating base, wherein the base is disposed on the heat-dissipating base.

4. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein material of the heat-dissipating base is selected from the group consisting of aluminium, tin, copper, silver, gold , ceramic and combinations thereof.

5. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a reflective material layer, disposed on the heat-conducting structure.

6. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein material of the reflective material layer is selected from the group consisting of silver, chromium, nickel, aluminium and combinations thereof.

7. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the reflective material layer is a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR).

8. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heat-conducting structure is a mesh heat-conducting structure, a sheet heat-conducting structure, a tube heat-conducting structure or a heat-conducting structure composed of a polygonal sheet body.

9. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein mesh pattern of the mesh heat-conducting structure comprises rectangular shape or triangular shape.

10. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wavelength transferring cover comprises an inner surface and an outer surface opposite to each other, and the heat-conducting structure contacts the inner surface, the outer surface, or contacts both the inner surface and the outer surface.

11. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wavelength transferring cover has a first inner surface and a first outer surface opposite to each other, the heat-conducting structure has a second inner surface and a second outer surface opposite to each other, and the second inner surface and the second outer surface of the heat-conducting structure are respectively coplanar with the first inner surface and the first outer surface of the wavelength transferring cover.

12. The light-emitting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein ratio of the maximal vertical distance between a top point on the wavelength transferring cover and the base over height of the heat-conducting structure ranges between 0.9 to 2.
