Comparative Study of the Photoelectric and Thermal Performance Between Traditional and Chip-Scale Packaged White LED

The traditional cup-shaped LED packaged with epoxy molding compound materials (EMC-LED) and chip-scale packaged LED (CSP-LED) were prepared and analyzed in this article. It is found that high temperature can result in the spectrum red shift and the photoelectric performance degradation for these LEDs due to the degradation of chip and packaging materials. Compared with EMC-LED, the CSP-LED device has a lower thermal resistance of 3.31 °C/W due to the shorter thermal dissipation path and has better stability under the different temperature and drive current conditions. All the simulation results agree well with experimental and theoretical results, indicating that the photoelectric and thermal properties of the CSP-LED can be improved by introducing ceramic substrate and optimizing the material of the interconnected surface and the size of the conduction area. These results have guiding significance for the future CSP-LED design and application.
