Side-emitting LED package having scattering area and backlight apparatus incorporating the LED lens

摘要

The invention provides an LED package and a backlight device incorporating the LED lens. The LED package has a bottom surface and a light exiting surface cylindrically extended around a central axis of the package from the bottom surface. Also, a reflecting surface is positioned on an opposite side of the bottom surface and symmetrical around the central axis such that light incident from the bottom surface is reflected toward the light exiting surface. Further, a scattering area is formed on the reflecting surface. According to the invention, by applying scattering materials on the reflecting surface of the LED package, a reflecting paper does not need to be attached, thereby simplifying a process and reducing the manufacture time and cost.
