The present disclosure relates to an electronic component mounting package and an electronic module.
There has been known, for a light-emitting element, a ceramic package that uses ceramic as a base material and has a cavity formed therein having a bottom surface where an electronic component mounting part on which a light-emitting element, such as an LED, is to be mounted is configured (JP 2006-41179 A). The inner peripheral surface of the cavity in which the light-emitting element is accommodated is inclined outward from the bottom surface toward an opening, thereby being configured such that light emitted from the light-emitting element and reflected by the lateral surface of the cavity is released outside from the end of the opening, so that light is released with high efficiency. In order to improve reflectivity on the lateral surface of the cavity, a metal film is applied to the lateral surface (JP 2007-234846 A).
An electronic component mounting package includes: a substrate with ceramic as a base material, the substrate including a cavity having a bottom surface where an electronic component mounting part is located and an inner periphery that has a corner part and a straight part; and an inner peripheral surface where a first metal film is located, the first metal film having a thickness larger at the straight part than at the corner part on the inner periphery having a single distance from the bottom surface.
An electronic component mounting package includes: a substrate with ceramic as a base material, the substrate including a cavity having a bottom surface where an electronic component mounting part is located and an inner periphery that has a corner part and a straight part; and an inner peripheral surface where a first metal film is located, the first metal film having a surface roughness larger at the straight part than at the corner part on the inner periphery having a single distance from the bottom surface.
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.
In this embodiment, there is described an example of an optical module having an optical element (light-emitting diode) as an electronic component that is mounted in an electronic component mounting package for mounting an electronic component.
As shown in
In the substrate 10, a cavity 20 that opens at the upper surface is formed. In a Z-direction view (
The inner peripheral surface 13 of the cavity 20 is inclined outward from a bottom surface 12 toward an opening 11 of the cavity. That is, the inner peripheral surface 13 of the cavity 20 is inclined so as to be closest to the central axis Az of the cavity in the Z direction at the bottom surface 12 and farthest therefrom at the opening 11. Hence, the area of the XY section of the cavity 20 is smallest at the bottom surface 12 and largest at the opening 11.
On the inner peripheral surface 13 of the cavity 20, a metal film 13a is located. On the substrate upper-end surface 14 surrounding the cavity 20, a metal film 14a is located. These metal films 13a, 14a are located so as to be continuous, for example. As the metal film 13a, for example, an aluminum film, which is a film of a metal having high thermal conductivity and high reflectivity, is used, and may have at least one metal film selected from a tungsten film, a nickel film and a gold film as an inner layer. As the metal film 14a, at least one metal film selected from a tungsten film, a nickel film and a gold film is used.
On the bottom surface 12 of the cavity 20, electrode patterns 15, 16 are located, thereby configuring an electronic component mounting part. Electrodes of an optical element 30 are electrically and mechanically connected to the electrode patterns 15, 16, so that the optical element 30 is mounted thereon. The electrode patterns 15, 16 are conductive to an external connection pad on the bottom surface of the substrate 10.
A translucent lid 17 that covers the opening 11 of the cavity 20 is joined to the substrate upper-end surface 14 surrounding the cavity 20 (via the metal film 14a and an adhesive 14b), thereby closing the cavity 20, so that an optical module 2 is formed.
Next, thickness distribution and surface roughness distribution of the metal film 13a will be described.
Directions on the inner peripheral surface 13 of the cavity are defined as shown in
As shown in

From the above description, thickened regions 13b shown in
Next, effects of the above-described configuration will be described.
In the optical module 2 of this embodiment, the thickness of the metal film 13a at the corner parts 21a is relatively small, but, as indicated by arrows in
Optical properties are as follows.
If the optical element 30 is a light-emitting element, such as a light-emitting diode, light emitted from the optical element 30 toward the inner peripheral surface 13 travels as indicated by arrows in
As shown in
As shown in
Hence, light releasing/emitting efficiency of the optical module 2 can be improved.
If the optical element is a light-receiving element, such as a photodiode, light receiving efficiency of the optical module 2 can be improved.
Further, while the amount of light that is released (exits) from the straight parts 21b, which are close to the center of the optical element 30 as a light source, and their vicinities is reduced, the amount of light that is released (exits) from the corner parts 21a, which are far from the center of the optical element 30 as a light source, and their vicinities is increased. Hence, the amount of light that is emitted on the entire light-emitting surface of the optical module 2 can be uniformized.
If the optical element is a light-receiving element, such as a photodiode, the amount of light that is received on the entire light-receiving surface of the optical module 2 can be uniformized.
Although in the above-described embodiment, the electronic component that is mounted in the electronic component mounting package is an optical element, the electronic component mounting package of the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and any electronic component may be mounted therein. In any case, the effect of improving reliability of the sealing structure is obtained. However, the abovementioned optical characteristics are those in the case where the electronic component is an optical element.
The disclosure is applicable to an electronic component mounting package and an electronic module.
