Enhanced Optical and Thermal Performance of QD White LEDs Using a Centrifugation Packaging Structure

Abstract

In this study, we propose a centrifugation packaging (CP) structure to enhance the optical and thermal dissipation performance of LEDs, using SBA-15 particles to facilitate the sedimentation and dispersion of QDs. The results indicate that the EL spectra of the LEDs remains almost unchanged after the centrifugation time of 60 min and a CP structure can be obtained. The radiation power and luminous flux of LEDs with a CP structure improve by 9.1% and 10.4%, respectively, compared with the uniform distribution (UD) structure. The surface temperature of LED devices with the CP structure is reduced to 34.4 °C from 41.8 °C at a current of 100 mA. Furthermore, the simulation results show that the maximum temperature in the CP structure is 22.4% lower than that in the UD structure at a current of 500 mA. Thus, this study can provide a new perspective for designing settlement structures of QD-LEDs to enhance their optical and thermal performance.
