摘要:
A laser diode, grown on a miscut nonpolar or semipolar substrate, with lower threshold current density and longer stimulated emission wavelength, compared to conventional laser diode structures, wherein the laser diode's (1) n-type layers are grown in a nitrogen carrier gas, (2) quantum well layers and barrier layers are grown at a slower growth rate as compared to other device layers (enabling growth of the p-type layers at higher temperature), (3) high Al content electron blocking layer enables growth of layers above the active region at a higher temperature, and (4) asymmetric AlGaN SPSLS allowed growth of high Al containing p-AlGaN layers. Various other techniques were used to improve the conductivity of the p-type layers and minimize the contact resistance of the contact layer.

A solid state lighting apparatus includes a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) including at least a first LED and a second LED. Chromaticities of the first and second LEDs are selected so that a combined light generated by a mixture of light from the pair of LEDs has about a target chromaticity. The first LED may include a first LED chip that emits light in the blue portion of the visible spectrum and a phosphor that emits red light in response to blue light emitted by the first LED chip. The second LED emits light having a color point that is above the planckian locus of a 1931 CIE Chromaticity diagram, and in particular may have a yellow green, greenish yellow or green hue.
摘要:
An improved light emitting device, especially a phosphor-converted white light device, wherein the light extraction efficiency and the color temperature distribution uniformity are improved by the introduction of both nanoparticles and light scattering particles proximate to the light source. Nanoparticles having a high index of refraction are dispersed throughout a wavelength conversion layer to adjust the index of refraction of the layer for improved light extraction. Light scattering particles may be dispersed in the wavelength conversion layer and/or in a surrounding medium to improve the spatial correlated color temperature uniformity.

Methods for wafer level fabricating of light emitting diode (LED) chips are disclosed with one embodiment of a method according to the present invention comprising providing a plurality of LEDs and then coating of the LEDs with a layer of first conversion material so that at least some light from the LEDs passes through the first conversion material. The light is converted to different wavelengths of light having a first conversion material emission spectrum. The LEDs are then coated with a layer of second conversion material arranged on the first layer of conversion. The second conversion material has a wavelength excitation spectrum, and at least some light from the LEDs passes through the second conversion material and is converted. The first conversion material emission spectrum does not substantially overlap with the second conversion material excitation spectrum. Methods according to the present invention can also be used in wafer level fabrication of LED chips and LED packages with pedestals for electrically contacting the LEDs through the conversion coatings.
摘要:
A dislocation-free high quality template with relaxed lattice constant, fabricated by spatially restricting misfit dislocation(s) around heterointerfaces. This can be used as a template layer for high In composition devices. Specifically, the present invention prepares high quality InGaN templates (In composition is around 5-10%), and can grow much higher In-composition InGaN quantum wells (QWs) (or multi quantum wells (MQWs)) on these templates than would otherwise be possible.
摘要:
LED chips including an LED layer or layers capable of emitting light of a first wavelength, a light conversion layer on the LED capable of converting at least a portion of the light of a first wavelength to light of a second wavelength, and a filter layer therebetween that is transmissive to light of a first wavelength and reflective to light of a second wavelength. The filter layer may prevent at least some of the light of a second wavelength from entering the LED layer or layers, where it may be subject to various optical losses, such as internal reflection and absorption. LED chips may also include multiple filter and light conversion layers. Methods of fabrication are also disclosed.
