摘要:
In a nitride semiconductor light-emitting device, a cap is pressure-bonded on the top surface of a stem under electric discharge to form a package. The package encloses a heatsink, a nitride semiconductor laser element, electrode pins, and wires, and has sealed inside it a gas containing oxygen as a sealed atmosphere. At least the inner surface of the cap is plated with Ni and Pd, which are metals that can occlude hydrogen.

A method for producing a nitride semiconductor laser light source is provided. The nitride semiconductor laser light source has a nitride semiconductor laser chip, a stem for mounting the laser chip thereon, and a cap for covering the laser chip. The laser chip is encapsulated in a sealed container composed of the stem and the cap. The method for producing this nitride semiconductor laser light source has a cleaning step of cleaning the surface of the laser chip, the stem, or the cap. In the cleaning step, the laser chip, the stem, or the cap is exposed with ozone or an excited oxygen atom, or baked by heat. The method also has, after the cleaning step, a capping step of encapsulating the laser chip in the sealed container composed of the stem and the cap. During the capping step, the cleaned surface of the laser chip, the stem, or the cap is kept clean. This method provides a long-life nitride semiconductor laser light source the light emission intensity of which is not easily reduced after a long period of use.

摘要:
A light-emitting apparatus composed of a light source that emits primary light and a phosphor that absorbs the primary light and emits secondary light offers high brightness, low power consumption, and a long lifetime while minimizing adverse effects on the environment. The phosphor is formed of a III-V group semiconductor in the form of fine-particle crystals each having a volume of 2 800 nm3 or less. The light emitted from the fine-particle crystals depends on their volume, and therefore giving the fine-particle crystals a predetermined volume distribution makes it possible to adjust the wavelength range of the secondary light.
