Abstract

A light-emitting device configured to electrically connect to an external circuit and having: a first light-emitting structure; a second light-emitting structure; a first conductive structure having a first connecting pad having a side surface and a top surface connected to the first light-emitting structure and an exposed bottom surface, and a first connecting portion extending away from the side surface without being directly connected to the second light-emitting structure; and a second conductive structure electrically connecting the first light-emitting structure and second light-emitting structure.

Claims (36)

1. A light-emitting device comprising:

a first light-emitting structure having an active layer;

a second light-emitting structure;

a third light-emitting structure;

a transparent material enclosing the first light-emitting structure, the second light-emitting structure, and the third light-emitting structure;

a first conductive structure overlapping the active layer in a cross-sectional view, and having a first connecting pad connected to the first light-emitting structure, a second connecting pad connected to the second light-emitting structure, and a connecting portion suspended in the transparent material; and

a second conductive structure not overlapping the first conductive structure, and connecting the second light-emitting structure with the third light-emitting structure,

wherein the second light-emitting structure is electrically arranged between the first light-emitting structure and the third light-emitting structure, and

wherein the first connecting pad the second connecting pad, and the connecting portion are formed by a same material.

2. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the second conductive structure has a portion suspended in the transparent material.

3. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising a structure having a first surface and a second surface facing and separated from the first surface, wherein the first light-emitting structure and the second light-emitting structure are arranged between the first surface and the second surface.

4. The light-emitting device of claim 3 , further comprising a third conductive structure connected to the first light-emitting structure and having a portion extending beyond an edge of the structure.

5. The light-emitting device of claim 3 , wherein the first conductive structure is devoid of a direct contact with the first surface and the second surface.

6. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion has a top surface and a bottom surface opposite to the top surface, the top surface and the bottom surface directly contact the transparent material.

7. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising a wavelength conversion material arranged in the transparent material.

8. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is arranged between the first connection pad and the second connecting pad.

9. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is arranged in a configuration of not overlapping the first connecting pad or the second connecting pad in a direction.

10. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is completely embedded in the transparent material.

11. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the first conductive structure is made of Cu, Au, Pt, Ti, Ni, or a combination thereof.

12. A light-emitting device comprising:

a first light-emitting structure;

a second light-emitting structure;

a first transparent material portion enclosing the first light-emitting structure without enclosing the second light-emitting structure;

a second transparent material portion enclosing the second light-emitting structure without enclosing the first transparent material portion; and

a first conductive structure electrically connecting the first light-emitting structure and the second light-emitting structure, and having a portion suspended in an ambient material,

wherein the light-emitting device is configured to arrange in a curved shape.

13. A lamp comprising:

a cover; and

a first light-emitting device of claim 12 disposed in the cover.

14. The lamp of claim 13 , further comprising a supporting lead on which the light-emitting device is mounted.

15. The lamp of claim 14 , wherein the first light-emitting device comprises a second conductive structure connecting the first light-emitting structure with the supporting lead.

16. The lamp of claim 13 , further comprising a plurality of light-emitting devices disposed in the cover, and electrically connected to the first light-emitting device in parallel.

17. The lamp of claim 16 , wherein the plurality of light-emitting devices connected to the first light-emitting device in parallel is arranged in a curved shape.

18. The lamp of claim 13 , further comprising an electrical connector connected to the cover.

19. The light-emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising a third conductive structure connected to the first light-emitting structure and having a portion extending beyond an edge of the transparent material.

20. The light-emitting device of claim 12 , wherein the first conductive structure comprises a connecting pad connected to the first light-emitting structure and a connecting portion connected to the connecting pad and suspended in the ambient environment.
