Abstract

A method of manufacturing a light-emitting device includes: providing a substrate, providing a light-emitting structure containing a plurality of solid-state light sources disposed on the substrate, and providing a hybrid encapsulation film for encapsulating the light-emitting structure. The hybrid encapsulation film includes a B-stage light-transmitting layer having a front surface and a back surface and a plurality of first reflective layers disposed at intervals on the front surface of the B-stage light-transmitting layer. The method further includes: laminating the back surface of the B-stage light-transmitting layer of the hybrid encapsulation film toward the solid-state light sources of the light-emitting structure, so that the solid-state light sources are embedded in the B-stage light-transmitting layer and correspond to the positions of the first reflective layers, and performing a thermal process to cure the hybrid encapsulation film.
