 BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, an LED device and a manufacturing method thereof according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0027] [First embodiment]

 FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view schematically showing an LED chip 1 that forms a main part of the LED device according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0029] Although not shown in the drawings, the LED device according to the present embodiment is configured as a so-called bullet-type LED lamp or chip-type LED using the LED chip 1 shown in Fig. 1 as the LED chip. The structure of bullet-type LED lamps and chip-type LEDs excludes the structure of LED chip 1. Therefore, a well-known structure can be adopted, and the description thereof is omitted here.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the LED chip 1 is a substrate (second substrate) such as a glass substrate that transmits light in a predetermined wavelength region (visible region in the present embodiment). 2) and an LED element 3 provided on the substrate 2 and emitting white light to the outside through the substrate 2. This LED chip 1 has only one LED element. In the LED chip 1, the lower surface side of the substrate 2 in FIG.

[0031] The LED element 3 includes a fluorescent layer 4, an n-type impurity layer 5, an active layer 6 as a light-emitting layer, a p-type impurity layer 7, and an electrode 8 stacked in this order from the substrate 2 side on the upper surface side of the substrate 2. , 9 and. The n-type impurity layer 5, the active layer 6 and the p-type impurity layer 7 are each composed of an epitaxial growth layer. A part of the n-type impurity layer 5 is not covered with the active layer 6 and the p-type impurity layer 7, and one electrode 8 is formed in that region. The other electrode 9 is formed on the p-type impurity layer 7. In the present embodiment, as is known, the materials of the layers 5 to 7 are set so that blue light is emitted from the active layer 6. In fact, as is known, each layer 5-7 is composed of a plurality of layers or a buffer layer is added as necessary. To do. In the present embodiment, the fluorescent layer 4 is a fluorescent material that emits yellow-green light that is excited by the blue light from the active layer 6 and has a complementary color with blue (for example, YAG (yttrium aluminum gallium compound)). ) -Containing resin (for example, epoxy resin or silicone resin).

As can be seen from the above description, in the present embodiment, the n-type impurity layer 5, the active layer 6, the p-type impurity layer 7, and the electrodes 8 and 9 constitute the LED element 3 as a whole. 10 (excluding the fluorescent layer 4). The fluorescent layer 4 is disposed between the LED constituent layer 10 and the substrate 2.

 [0033] When a forward current is passed between the electrodes 8 and 9, blue light is emitted from the active layer 6, the light emitted from the active layer 6 and transmitted through the fluorescent layer 4 as blue light, and the fluorescence of the fluorescent layer 4 The light that has been converted into yellowish green light by the substance mixes with it, so that the viewer on the lower surface side of the substrate 2 looks white light.

[0034] In the LED device according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. Since the light layer 4 is sandwiched between the LED constituent layer 10 and the substrate 2, the fluorescent layer 4 is not exposed to the outside even if it is not covered with a special protective film or the like. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the influence of the outside world on the fluorescent layer 4 can be reduced without covering with a special protective film or the like, and the durability can be improved.

 Next, an example of a method for manufacturing the LED device according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 2, 3, and 4. FIG. 2, 3 and 4 are schematic cross-sectional views schematically showing the respective steps of the LED device manufacturing method according to the present embodiment.

 [0036] First, a base substrate (first substrate) 11 is prepared which serves as a basis for epitaxial growth of the n-type impurity layer 5 and the like of the LED component layer 10. As the substrate 11, for example, a sapphire substrate or a SiC substrate is used. Next, a plurality of LED constituent layers 10 including a light emitting layer (active layer) and constituting an LED element are formed on the first substrate 11. That is, the LED constituent layer 10 is formed on the substrate 11 for the plurality of LED chips 1 to be manufactured at once. Specifically, an n-type impurity layer 5, an active layer 6, and a p-type impurity layer 7 are sequentially formed on the substrate 11 by epitaxial growth, and unnecessary regions of the active layer 6 and the p-type impurity layer 7 are etched. Remove. At this time, the n-type impurity layer 5 remains formed on the entire surface of the substrate 11. Then, the electrodes 8 and 9 are formed of gold or the like and patterned into a predetermined shape by etching. Figure 2 (a) shows this state.

 Next, a substrate (third substrate) 12 for holding the LED component layer 10 and protecting the mechanical damage force is bonded to the surface of the LED component layer 10 opposite to the substrate 11. This bonding is temporary and will be peeled off later. Here, the substrate 12 is bonded to the LED constituent layer 10 by the thermoplastic wax 13. Figure 2 (b) shows this state.

 Next, the substrate 11 is removed from the LED constituent layer 10 to which the substrate 12 is bonded. Figure 2 (c) shows this situation. The substrate 11 can be removed by, for example, scraping the substrate 11 with a grinder, or cutting the vicinity of the boundary between the LED component layer 10 and the substrate 11 with a water jet (high pressure jet water) or a wire saw. The ability to do S.

On the other hand, a substrate (second substrate) 2 such as a glass substrate that transmits light in a predetermined wavelength region (visible region in the present embodiment) is prepared, and the fluorescent layer 4 described above is provided on the substrate 2. Apply. Figure 3 (a) shows this state. The surface of the substrate 2 is uneven due to a patterned layer. In addition, since V, Na! /, Can be used as the substrate 2 through a process accompanied by high-temperature treatment such as formation of an epitaxial growth layer, the substrate 2 is not bent due to high-temperature treatment or the like. Therefore, the thickness of the fluorescent layer 4 can be made uniform with higher accuracy. In order to make the thickness of the fluorescent layer 4 uniform with higher accuracy, the substrate 2 is polished and planarized and / or the fluorescent layer 4 is applied before applying the fluorescent layer 4 as necessary. Then, the phosphor layer 4 may be polished and flattened. Note that the fluorescent layer 4 may be formed by, for example, sinoleta screen printing.

 Next, the lower surface (surface opposite to the substrate 12) of the LED constituent layer 10 in the state shown in FIG. 2 (c) and the upper surface (substrate 2 and the surface of the fluorescent layer 4 in the state shown in FIG. 3 (a)). The other side). Figure 3 (b) shows this state. In the present embodiment, since the fluorescent layer 4 is configured using an adhesive resin such as an epoxy resin or a silicone resin, the LED constituent layer 10 and the fluorescent layer 4 are used by utilizing the adhesive property of the fluorescent layer 4. Join layer 4 together. However, apart from the fluorescent layer 4, the LED constituent layer 10 and the fluorescent layer 4 may be bonded using a translucent adhesive.

 [0041] After the lower surface of the LED constituent layer 10 and the fluorescent layer 4 are bonded, the thermoplastic wax 13 is removed, whereby the substrate 12 is peeled off from the LED constituent layer 10. Figure 4 (a) shows this state.

 Next, a substrate including the LED constituent layer 10 in the state shown in FIG. 4 (a) is divided into each LED chip 1 by dicing. Figure 4 (b) shows this state. As a result, a plurality of LED chips 1 are completed at once.

 Thereafter, although not shown in the drawings, a bullet-type LED lamp or a chip-type LED as the LED device according to the present embodiment is completed through a known process such as wire bonding.

 If the LED device according to the present embodiment is manufactured by this manufacturing method, the thickness of the fluorescent layer 4 can be made uniform with higher accuracy as described above. Therefore, it is possible to manufacture a large number of LED devices having uniform light emission colors (uniform white chromaticity in the present embodiment), and the yield can be further increased.

[0045] In the manufacturing method described above, the active layer 6 as a light emitting layer emits blue light and the fluorescent layer 4 excites the blue light as excitation light for all LED chips 1 manufactured in a batch. It is configured to emit yellow-green light, and all LED chips 1 emit white light. But, In each LED chip 1, fluorescent layers emitting different colors are arranged as fluorescent layers 4 (that is, areas corresponding to LED chips 1 having different emission colors in the process shown in FIG. 3 (a)). Then, fluorescent layers that emit different colors may be disposed), and a plurality of LED chips 1 that emit light of different colors may be manufactured at one time.

 [0046] Further, in all LED chips 1 manufactured in a batch, the active layer 6 as a light emitting layer is configured to emit ultraviolet light, and the fluorescent layer 4 has a predetermined color using the ultraviolet light as excitation light. You may comprise so that light (for example, red light, green light, or blue light) may be emitted.

 [0047] Furthermore, the active layer 6 as the light emitting layer is configured to emit ultraviolet light in all the LED chips 1 manufactured in a batch, and the fluorescent layer 4 in each LED chip 1 is excited by ultraviolet light. (I.e., in the step shown in Fig. 3 (a), fluorescent layers emitting different colors are arranged in regions corresponding to LED chips 1 having different emission colors). A plurality of LED chips 1 that emit light of different colors may be manufactured at a time.

 [0048] Furthermore, the LED chip 1 is configured such that the active layer 6 as the light emitting layer emits ultraviolet light, and the LED layer 1 is divided into three regions by dividing the fluorescent layer 4 into three regions. Three fluorescent layers that are excited by light and emit red light, green light, and blue light, respectively, may be disposed. Even in this case, white light is emitted from the LED chip 1.

 [0066] As can be seen from the above explanatory power, in this embodiment, in each LED element 41R, 41G, 41B, the n-type impurity layer 63, the active layer 64, the p-type impurity layer 65, and the electrodes 66, 67 are provided. As a whole, the LED constituent layers constituting the LED element (excluding the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G and 62B) are 70, and the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G and 62B are the LED constituent layer 70 and the substrate 61, respectively. It is arranged between.

 [0067] Of the circuits shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the drive circuit 31 that is a part other than the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B is mounted on one drive circuit board 53 using a known semiconductor process technology. Yes. In the present embodiment, a silicon substrate is used as the drive circuit substrate 53. The drive circuit board 53 is electrically connected to the electrodes 66 and 67 of the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B of the LED board 52 by bumps 71 and 72, as shown in FIGS. The chip 51 includes an LED substrate 52 and a drive circuit substrate 53 that are bonded to each other by bumps 71 and 72.

The above-described red column selection switch 42R includes a source electrode and a drain electrode (not shown) formed by a predetermined diffusion layer formed on the drive circuit board 53, and a gate electrode 73 disposed on a region between them. (See Fig. 13). The source is connected to a wiring pattern connected to the horizontal source line 44R. The drain is connected to an electrode 74 formed thereon and connected by a bump 72. The gate electrode 73 is connected to the vertical selection line 45R by a wiring pattern. These points The same applies to the green column selection switch 42G and the blue column selection switch 42B. The ground wire 43 also serves as an electrode for connecting to the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B. In FIG. 11, reference numeral 75 denotes an insulating film such as a silicon oxide film.

As shown in FIG. 11, the anode of the red LED element 41R and the drain of the red column selection switch 42R are electrically connected by a bump 72 provided between the electrodes 67 and 74. Further, the red LED element 41R is electrically connected by a bump 71 provided between the force sword of the red LED element 41R, the ground wire 43, the force electrode 66, and the ground wire 43. Similarly, the anodes of the LED elements 41G and 41B and the drains of the selection switches 42G and 42B are electrically connected by the respective bumps 72, and the force swords of the LED elements 41G and 42B and the ground wire 43 are connected to the respective bumps 71. Therefore, each is electrically connected. The bumps 71 and 72 are made of, for example, copper or gold.

 In each color LED element 41R, when a current flows between the electrodes 66 and 67, ultraviolet light is emitted from the active layer 64. In the red LED element 41R, the fluorescent layer 62R is excited by the ultraviolet light from the active layer 64 to emit red light, and this red light is emitted upward through the substrate 61. In the green LED element 41G, the fluorescent layer 62G is excited by the ultraviolet light from the active layer 64 to emit green light, and this green light is emitted upward through the substrate 61. In the blue LED element 41G, the fluorescent layer 62B is excited by the ultraviolet light from the active layer 64 to emit blue light, and this blue light is emitted upward through the substrate 61.

 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, a groove 61a is formed at a position between adjacent LED elements on the substrate 61. The groove 61 a is formed substantially perpendicular to the surface of the substrate 61.

[0072] The light emitted from the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 63 forces of the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B tends to travel not only upward but also in various directions. Therefore, if there is no groove 61a, the light emitted from the fluorescent layer of each LED element is mixed with the light emitted from the fluorescent layer of the adjacent LED element, and crosstalk occurs. On the other hand, since the groove 61a is formed in the substrate 61, the light is totally reflected on the surface of the groove 61a, so that the direction in which the light emitted from the fluorescent layer of one LED element is radiated is concentrated. Directionality is determined. For this reason, crosstalk that intersects with light emitted from the adjacent fluorescent layer can be suppressed, and display with high contrast becomes possible. However, the present invention Then, it is not always necessary to form the groove 61a. The groove 61a may be left empty, but the same crosstalk suppressing effect can be obtained even if the groove 61a is embedded with a light reflecting material such as metal or formed on the surface of the groove 61a by vapor deposition. Can do.

The wire 56 is wire-bonded with a wire 56, and the wire 56 is sealed with a resin 57.

 [0074] In general, a chip having an LED element, including a transparent substrate corresponding to the substrate 61 in FIG. This is because, in general chips, if this is not done, the durability will deteriorate and the light extraction efficiency will decrease due to the high refractive index of the LED light emitting layer.

 However, in the LED device according to the present embodiment, the LED substrate 52 and the drive circuit substrate 53 are hybridized by the bumps 71 and 72. Also, in the LED device according to the present embodiment (as shown in the figure, each of the LED elements 41R, 41G, 41Βί !!), the light layers 62R, 62G, 62Β are respectively the LED constituent layers 70. The fluorescent layers 62 R, 62 G, 62 B are not exposed to the outside world even if they are not covered with a special protective film, etc. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, In addition, it is possible to reduce the influence of the outside world on the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B without covering with a special protective film, etc., and as a result, the durability can be improved. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the light extraction efficiency by setting the refractive index to an intermediate value between the refractive index of the LED light emitting layer and the refractive index of the LED light emitting layer. However, since the wire 56 is mechanically weak, in this embodiment, Is What sealed with part only resin 57 of the ear 56.

However, in the present invention, for example, the chip 51 may be accommodated in the package 81 as shown in FIG. The package 81 includes a package body 81a and a sealing lid 81b that also serves as a display window, and is a so-called ball grid package. Each solder ball 82 provided on the bottom surface of the package body 81a is electrically connected to each electrode 84 bonded to the electrode of the drive circuit board 53 with a wire 83 through a path (not shown). Next, an example of a method for manufacturing the LED device according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 15, 16, 17, and 18. FIG. FIG. 15, FIG. 16, FIG. 17 and FIG. 19 are schematic cross-sectional views schematically showing the respective steps of this manufacturing method. FIG. 18 is a schematic perspective view schematically showing a predetermined process of this manufacturing method.

 First, a substrate (first substrate) 91 serving as a basis for epitaxial growth of the n-type impurity layer 63 and the like of the LED component layer 70 is prepared. As the substrate 91, for example, a sapphire substrate or a SiC substrate is used. Next, the LED component layer 70 is formed on the substrate 91 by the amount of the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B of the plurality of chips 51 to be manufactured at once. That is, an n-type impurity layer 63, an active layer 64, and a p-type impurity layer 65 are sequentially formed on the substrate 91 by epitaxial growth, and unnecessary regions of the active layer 64 and the p-type impurity layer 65 are removed by etching. . At this time, the n-type impurity layer 63 remains formed on the entire surface of the substrate 91. Then, the electrodes 66 and 67 are formed of gold or the like and patterned into a predetermined shape by etching. Figure 15 (a) shows this state.

 Next, a substrate (third substrate) 92 for holding the LED component layer 70 and protecting the mechanical damage force is bonded to the surface of the LED component layer 70 opposite to the substrate 91. This bonding is temporary and will be peeled off later. Here, the substrate 12 is bonded to the LED constituent layer 10 by the thermoplastic wax 93. Next, the substrate 91 is removed from the LED constituent layer 70 to which the substrate 92 is bonded. Figure 15 (b) shows this state.

[0080] On the other hand, a substrate (second substrate) 61 such as a glass substrate that transmits light in a predetermined wavelength region (visible region in the present embodiment) is prepared, and the fluorescent layer 62R described above is provided on the substrate 61. , 62G, 62B are formed at positions corresponding to the LED elements 41R, 41G, 41B of the respective colors. Figure 15 (c) shows this state. Note that the method of finally forming the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B only in a partial region is well known. The surface of the substrate 61 has no irregularities due to a patterned layer, and the substrate 61 can be used after a process involving high temperature treatment such as formation of an epitaxial growth layer! / ,! The substrate 61 is not bent due to high temperature processing or the like. Therefore, the thickness of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B can be made uniform with higher accuracy. In order to make the thickness of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B even more accurate, the substrate 61 is polished before applying the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B, if necessary. Polishing and flattening may be performed, and / or the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B may be polished and flattened after the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B are formed. The fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B may be formed by silk screen printing, for example.

 Next, the lower surface (surface opposite to the substrate 92) of the LED constituent layer 70 in the state shown in FIG. 15 (b) and the upper surfaces of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B in the state shown in FIG. 15 (c). (The surface opposite to the substrate 61). In the present embodiment, since the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B are configured using an adhesive resin such as an epoxy resin or a silicone resin, the adhesive properties of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B are utilized. Then, the LED component layer 70 and the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B are joined. However, apart from the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B, the LED constituting layer 70 and the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B may be joined using a translucent adhesive. Thereafter, by removing the thermoplastic glass 93, the substrate 92 is peeled off from the LED constituent layer 70 and removed. Figure 16 (a) shows this state.

 Next, a groove 61a is formed at a position between adjacent LED elements by dry etching or the like.

 (Figure 16 (b)).

 On the other hand, the drive circuit board 53 is prepared by using a well-known semiconductor process technique (FIG. 16C). Here, the drive circuit board 53 is provided with, for example, a CMOS circuit by a general CMOS process. As shown in FIG. 17 (a), bumps 71 and 72 for electrical connection with the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B are formed on the drive circuit board 53.

 Next, the substrate in the state shown in FIG. 16 (a) and the drive circuit substrate 53 on which the bumps 71 and 72 are formed are aligned as shown in FIG. 17 (a). Figure 18 schematically shows this alignment. In FIG. 18, 101 indicates the substrate in the state shown in FIG. 16 (a), and 102 indicates the drive circuit substrate 53 on which the bumps 71 and 72 shown in FIG. 17 (a) are formed. In FIG. 18, reference numerals 101a and 102a schematically show areas for one chip in the substrates 101 and 102, respectively.

 Such alignment is performed, and the electrodes 66 and 67 and the amplifiers 71 and 72 are joined.

Fig. 17 (b) shows this state. Such bonding by bumps and hybridization by this are well-known techniques. Next, the hybridized substrate in the state shown in FIG. 17 (b) is caused to divert IJ to each chip 51 by dicing. FIG. 19 shows this state. Thus, a plurality of chips 51 are completed at once.

 Thereafter, the LED device 21 according to the present embodiment shown in FIG. 10 is completed through known processes such as wire bonding and resin sealing.

 If the LED device 21 according to the present embodiment is manufactured by this manufacturing method, the thicknesses of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B can be made uniform with higher accuracy as described above. Therefore, it is possible to further reduce variations in emission color and emission intensity between products and between multiple LED elements of the same product, which in turn can be achieved with the power S to further increase the yield.

 [0089] The power described for each embodiment of the present invention has been described above. The present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

 [0090] For example, in the LED device 21 according to the second embodiment, if each unit pixel is configured by only one of the red LED element 41, the green LED element 41G, and the blue LED element 41B, monochrome display is performed. It can be a display device to perform.

 [0091] Also, for example, in the LED device 21 according to the second embodiment, in the drive circuit board

 The drive circuit installed in 53 lights only the red LED element 41R in response to the red light illumination command signal, and turns on only the green LED element 41G in response to the green light illumination command signal. If only LED elements 41B are lit in response to the light and only LED elements 41R, 41G, 41B are lit in response to the white light illumination command signal, red light, green light, blue light and It is possible to provide an illumination device capable of selectively switching illumination with white light. In such an illuminating device, since the problem of crosstalk does not occur, the groove 6 la is unnecessary.

 [Modification of Second Embodiment]

 Next, a modification of the LED device manufacturing method according to the second embodiment will be described below.

A method for manufacturing the LED device according to the present modification will be described with reference to FIGS. 20 and 21 are schematic cross-sectional views schematically showing the respective steps of the LED device manufacturing method according to the present modification. First, a substrate (first substrate) 91 serving as a basis for epitaxial growth of the n-type impurity layer 63 and the like of the LED component layer 70 is prepared. As the substrate 91, for example, a sapphire substrate or a SiC substrate is used. Next, the LED component layer 70 is formed on the substrate 91 for the plurality of LED chips 1 to be manufactured at once. That is, the n-type impurity layer 63, the active layer 64, and the p-type impurity layer 65 are sequentially formed on the substrate 91 by epitaxial growth, and unnecessary regions of the active layer 64 and the p-type impurity layer 65 are removed by etching. At this time, the n-type impurity layer 63 remains formed on the entire surface of the substrate 91. Then, the electrodes 66 and 67 are formed of gold or the like and patterned into a predetermined shape by etching. Figure 20 (a) shows this state.

 On the other hand, the drive circuit board 53 is prepared using a known semiconductor process technology. Here, the drive circuit board 53 is assumed to be provided with a CMOS circuit by a general CMOS process, for example. A silicon substrate is used as the drive circuit substrate 53, and an insulating film 75 is provided so as to cover a part of the silicon substrate. Then, as shown in FIG. 20B, bumps 71 and 72 for electrical connection with the LED elements 41R, 41G, and 41B are formed on the drive circuit board 53. The bumps 71 and 72 are formed so as to be electrically connected to the electrode 43 and the electrode 74, respectively. The bumps 71 and 72 and the electrodes 74 and 43 are made of, for example, copper or gold. FIG. 20 (b) shows a drive circuit board on which bumps 71 and 72 are formed.

 Next, the substrate in the state shown in FIG. 20 (a) and the drive circuit substrate 53 on which the bumps 71 and 72 are formed are aligned as shown in FIG. 20 (c). Figure 18 schematically shows this alignment. In FIG. 18, 101 indicates the substrate in the state shown in FIG. 20 (a), and 102 indicates the drive circuit substrate 53 on which the bumps 71 and 72 shown in FIG. 20 (a) are formed. In FIG. 18, reference numerals 101a and 102a schematically show areas for one chip in the substrates 101 and 102, respectively.

 Such alignment is performed, and the electrodes 66 and 67 and the amplifiers 71 and 72 are joined to each other.

As a result, the electrode 67 of the LED component layer 70 and the electrode 74 of the drive circuit board 53 are electrically connected via the bump 72. Further, the electrode 66 and the electrode 43 of the drive circuit board 53 are electrically connected via the bump 71. Figure 20 (c) shows this state. This by bump Such joining and thus hybridization are well-known techniques.

[0099] Next, the substrate 91 is removed from the LED component layer 70 to which the drive circuit substrate 53 is bonded. FIG. 20 (d) shows this state. The substrate 91 can be removed by, for example, scraping the substrate 91 with a grinder, or cutting the vicinity of the boundary between the LED component layer 70 and the substrate 91 with a water jet (high pressure jet water) or a wire saw. Power to do S

Next, the n-type impurity layer 63 is subjected to dry etching or the like to form a groove 63a at a position between adjacent LED elements as shown in FIG. 21 (a).

[0101] On the other hand, a substrate (second substrate) 61 such as a glass substrate that transmits light in a predetermined wavelength region (visible region in this modification) is prepared, and the fluorescent layer 62R described above is provided on the substrate 61. , 62G, 62B are formed at positions corresponding to the LED elements 41R, 41G, 41B of the respective colors. Then, dry etching or the like is performed on the substrate 61 at a position corresponding to the groove 63a shown in FIG. 21 (a) to form a groove 61b as shown in FIG. 21 (b). Note that the method of finally forming the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B only in a partial region is well known. Note that the surface of the substrate 61 is not uneven due to a patterned layer or the like, and that the substrate 61 that has not undergone a process involving high-temperature processing such as formation of an epitaxy growth layer can be used. There is no bending due to processing. Therefore, the thickness of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B can be made uniform with higher accuracy. In order to make the thickness of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B more uniform, the substrate 61 is polished and flattened before applying the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B, if necessary. And / or after forming the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B, the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B may be polished and planarized. The fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B may be formed by silk screen printing, for example. In this modification, after forming the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B, the force ^s that forms the groove 61b is formed first, and then the groove 61b is formed, and then the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B are formed by a well-known method. It ’s good.

Next, the substrate 61 shown in FIG. 21 (b) and the substrate 91 including the LED constituent layer 70 and the electrode 66 shown in FIG. 21 (a) are aligned, and the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, 62B are aligned. And n-type impurity layer 63 are bonded so as to be in contact with each other. Figure 21 (c) shows this state. [0103] After that, as in the second embodiment, the hybridized substrate in the state shown in Fig. 21 (c) is divided into chips by dicing. As a result, a plurality of chips 51 as shown in FIG. 19 are completed.

 Thereafter, similarly to the second embodiment, the LED device 21 as shown in FIG. 10 is completed through known steps such as wire bonding and resin sealing.

 [0105] If the LED device 21 is manufactured by this manufacturing method, the thicknesses of the fluorescent layers 62R, 62G, and 62B can be made uniform with higher accuracy as described above. Therefore, variation in emission color and emission intensity can be further reduced between products and between a plurality of LED elements of the same product, and the yield can be further increased. Further, in this modification, since the drive circuit substrate 53 on which the drive circuit is formed is used as the third substrate in the second embodiment, one step of the substrate removal and bonding process can be omitted. .

 In this modification, the drive circuit board 53 on which the drive circuit is mounted is used as the third board. However, instead of the drive circuit board 53, a wiring board that is not initially mounted with the drive circuit is used. After joining to the LED component layer 70, a drive circuit may be formed on the wiring board by a known method. Further, another wiring board on which a drive circuit is mounted may be joined on the wiring board so as to be electrically connected. In place of the drive circuit board 53, a board (for example, a silicon board) is initially bonded to the LED constituent layer 70, and the electrodes 66 and 67 are electrically connected to the board by a well-known method such as hole formation or through-hole plating. After forming a conductive wiring or the like, the LED device may be manufactured by electrically connecting the wiring and the drive circuit. Industrial applicability

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, the influence of the outside world on the fluorescent layer can be reduced without being covered with a special protective film or the like, and as a result, the durability of the LED device can be improved. A manufacturing method can be provided. Further, according to the present invention, the thickness of the fluorescent layer can be made uniform with higher accuracy, and thereby the yield can be further increased.
