Disclosed herein is a light emitting diode (LED) device. The light emitting
diode device comprises a package formed with a terminal for applying an electrical
signal, one or more LED chips mounted on the package such that the LED chips are
electrically connected to the terminal, a lens formed to surround the LED chips
on the package for changing path of light emitted from the LED chips to the horizontal
direction with the difference of the refraction rates of the media, and a reflector
formed on the lens for reflecting the light, emitted above the lens without being
refracted in the horizontal direction at the lens, to the horizontal direction.
The LED device reflects the light, which is deviated from the optical design range
of the lens and emitted above the lens, back to the lens, thereby preventing the
hot spot from being generated, and enhancing horizontal emission efficiency of
the light.
