Abstract
A light source module, a fabrication method therefore, and a slim backlight unit including the same. The light source module includes a light emitting diode (LED) chip electrically connected to a substrate through a lower surface thereof, a wavelength conversion layer formed on the LED chip and enclosing at least the light exit face of the LED chip, and a reflector formed on a region of the LED chip excluding the light exit face.
Claims17
A light source module comprising:
- a light emitting diode (LED) chip electrically connected to a substrate through a lower surface thereof and comprising a laterally disposed light exit face through which light of the LED chip is emitted therethrough;
- a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the LED chip and covering at least the light exit face;
- and
- a reflector disposed on the LED chip and exposing the light exit face.
A backlight unit comprising:
- a light guide plate;
- and
- a light source module disposed on at least one side of the light guide plate and configured to emit light,
- wherein the light source module comprises:
- a light emitting diode (LED) chip electrically connected to a substrate through a lower surface thereof and comprising a laterally disposed light exit face through which light of the LED chip is emitted;
- a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the LED chip and covering at least the light exit face;
- and
- a reflector disposed on the LED chip and exposing the light exit face.
A method of fabricating a light source module, comprising:
- fabricating a light emitting diode (LED) chip including a lateral light exit face through which light of the LED chip is emitted;
- forming a wavelength conversion layer on the LED chip to cover at least the light exit face of the LED chip;
- and
- forming a reflector on the LED chip that exposes the light exit face.
