Abstract

A integrated light-emitting device including: a base including a conductive wiring; a plurality of light-emitting devices mounted on the base and configured to emit a first light, each of the light-emitting devices comprising a light-emitting element and a encapsulant covering the light-emitting element; a light reflective film provided on an upper surface of the light-emitting element; and a plurality of light reflective members disposed between adjacent ones of the light-emitting devices. A ratio (H/W) of a height (H) of the encapsulant to a width (W) of a bottom surface of the encapsulant is less than 0.5. Each of the light-emitting devices has a batwing light distribution characteristics.

Claims (42)

a plurality of light reflective members disposed between the adjacent light-emitting devices,

wherein a ratio (H/W) of a height (H) of each encapsulant to a width (W) of a bottom surface of the encapsulant is less than 0.5, and

wherein each of the light-emitting devices has batwing light distribution characteristics.

2. The integrated light-emitting device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a light diffusion plate disposed above the light-emitting devices,

wherein a ratio (OD/Pitch) of a distance (OD) between the base and the light diffusion plate to a distance (pitch) between the adjacent light-emitting elements is 0.2 or less.

3. The integrated light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the encapsulants contain a light diffusion material.

4. The integrated light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the light reflective members has a height that is 0.3 times or less than a distance between the adjacent light-emitting devices.

5. The integrated light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the encapsulants have an upper surface with a convex curved shape.

6. The integrated light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the encapsulants is formed in the dome shape.

7. The integrated light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the light reflective portions is configured such that a light transmissivity of each of the light reflective portions for said first light has incident-angle dependence.
