US Patent 9147814 Semiconductor light-emitting device and manufacturing method

A semiconductor light-emitting device and a method for manufacturing the same can include a wavelength converting layer located over a semiconductor epitaxial layer in order to emit various colored-lights including white light. The light-emitting device can include a semiconductor chip substrate configured not to transmit light emitted from the epitaxial layer and mounted on a mounting board, and a transparent resin layer located between the wavelength converting layer and the epitaxial layer mounted on the semiconductor chip substrate so as to extend from a side surface of the wavelength converting layer towards a substantially edge portion of the semiconductor chip substrate. The semiconductor light-emitting device can be configured to improve a color variability of a mixture light emitted from the device by using the transparent resin layer and the wavelength converting layer, and therefore can emit the mixture light having a substantially uniform color tone from a small light-emitting surface.
