Semiconductor light emitting device, light emitting apparatus and production method for semiconductor light emitting DEV

摘要

A chip-type light-emitting semiconductor device includes: a substrate 4; a blue LED 1 mounted on the substrate 4 , and a luminescent layer 3 made of a mixture of yellow/yellowish phosphor particles 2 and a base material 13 (translucent resin). The yellow/yellowish phosphor particles 2 is a silicate phosphor which absorbs blue light emitted by the blue LED 1 to emit a fluorescence having a main emission peak in the wavelength range from 550 nm to 600 nm, inclusive, and which contains, as a main component, a compound expressed by the chemical formula: (Sr 1-a1-b1-x Ba a1 Ca b1 Eu x ) 2 SiO 4 (0 ‰¦ a1 ‰¦ 0.3, 0 ‰¦ b1 ‰¦ 0.8 and 0 < x < 1). The silicate phosphor particles disperse substantially evenly in the resin easily. As a result, excellent white light is obtained.
