Abstract

A light-emitting device includes a carrier, a light-emitting unit disposed on the carrier, a reflective element arranged on the light-emitting unit, and an optical element arranged on the carrier and surrounding the light-emitting unit.

Claims (27)

1. A light-emitting device, comprising:

a carrier comprising a reflection surface and a first bottom surface opposite to the reflection surface;

a light-emitting unit arranged on the reflection surface;

a first optical structure reflective to light from the light-emitting unit, and completely arranged above the light-emitting unit;

a second optical structure arranged between the first optical structure and the carrier to surround the light-emitting unit and directly contact the carrier and the first optical structure, and comprising a top surface and a second bottom surface which are substantially parallel with each other; and

a virtual center line passing through the light-emitting device,

wherein the top surface is higher than the light-emitting unit and lower than the first optical structure, and

wherein the light-emitting device has a light intensity distribution which is symmetrically distributed with respect to the virtual center line, the light intensity distribution has a maximum value within an angle ranging between 40° and 60° with respect to the virtual center line.

2. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein in a cross -sectional view, and the second optical structure is substantially surrounding the light-emitting unit and symmetrical with respect to the virtual center line.

3. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the first optical structure is a white paint reflective layer, a ceramic ink reflective layer, a metal reflective layer, or a distributed Bragg reflector.

4. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the second optical structure comprises a wavelength conversion material.

5. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the light -emitting unit comprises a light-emitting structure, and a light transmitting layer located between and directly connected to the first optical structure and the light-emitting structure.

6. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , further comprising an electrode below the first bottom surface of the carrier.

7. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the second optical structure further comprises a lateral surface located between the top surface and the second bottom surface and not parallel with the top surface and the second bottom surface.

8. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the first optical structure has a first width, the light-emitting unit comprises a light-emitting structure which has a second width, the first width and the second width are measured in a direction parallel with the reflection surface, and the first width is larger than the second width.

9. A light-emitting apparatus, comprising:

a substrate; and

a plurality of the light-emitting devices arranged in a form of a matrix on the substrate,;

wherein each light-emitting device in the plurality of the light-emitting devices comprises:

a carrier comprising a reflection surface and a first bottom surface opposite to the reflection surface;

a light-emitting unit arranged on the reflection surface;

a first optical structure reflective to light from the light-emitting unit, and completely arranged above the light-emitting unit;

a second optical structure arranged between the first optical structure and the carrier to surround the light-emitting unit and directly contact the carrier and the first optical structure, and comprising a top surface and a second bottom surface which are substantially parallel with each other; and

a virtual center line passing through the light-emitting device,

wherein the top surface is higher than the light-emitting unit and lower than the first optical structure, and

wherein the light-emitting device has a light intensity distribution which is symmetrically distributed with respect to the virtual center line, the light intensity distribution has a maximum value within an angle ranging between 40° and 60° with respect to the virtual center line.

10. The light-emitting apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the plurality of the light-emitting devices is arranged on the substrate with a fixed interval in a direction.
