Abstract

An optoelectronic element includes an optoelectronic unit, a first metal layer, a second metal layer, a conductive layer and a transparent structure. The optoelectronic unit has a central line in a top view, a top surface, and a bottom surface. The second metal layer is formed on the top surface, and has an extension portion crossing over the central line and extending to the first metal layer. The conductive layer covers the first metal layer and the extension portion. The transparent structure covers the bottom surface without covering the top surface.

Claims (16)

1. An optoelectronic element comprising:

an optoelectronic unit having a top surface, a first bottom surface, and a first lateral surface between the top surface and the first bottom surface;

a conductive layer formed on the top surface, laterally extended beyond the first lateral surface, and comprising a side surface;

a first transparent structure covering the first bottom surface of the optoelectronic unit;

a second transparent structure covering the first transparent structure, and having a second bottom surface and a second lateral surface;

a first layer covering the first transparent structure and the second transparent structure;

a second layer covering the first layer, and having a flat bottom surface; and

a first wavelength-converting layer disposed between the first layer and the second layer, wherein the first transparent structure, the first layer, the second layer, and the first wavelength-converting layer do not cover the side surface of the conductive layer.

2. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the second transparent structure includes a bevel between the second bottom surface and the second lateral surface.

3. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the first wavelength-converting layer comprises quantum dot.

4. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the first wavelength-converting layer comprises a semiconductor material or a phosphor.

5. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the first transparent structure covers the first lateral surface without covering the top surface.

6. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the conductive layer is made of a metallic material comprising Cu, Sn, Au, Ni, Ti, Pb, Cu—Sn, Cu—Zn, Cu—Cd, Sn—Pb—Sb, Sn—Pb—Zn, Ni—Sn, Ni—Co, Au alloy, Au—Cu—Ni—Au, or the combination thereof.

7. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the first layer, the second layer or both are made of a material comprising glass, epoxy, polyethylene terephthalate, fluorocarbon polymer, polycarbonate or polyimide, Al2O3, SOG.

8. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the first layer has a flat outer surface.

9. The optoelectronic element of claim 1 , wherein the first wavelength-converting layer has a side surface fully covered by the second layer.
