A flexible film comprising a wavelength converting material is positioned over a light source. The flexible film is conformed to a predetermined shape. In some embodiments, the light source is a light emitting diode mounted on a support substrate. The diode is aligned with an indentation in a mold such that the flexible film is disposed between the support substrate and the mold. Transparent molding material is disposed between the support substrate and the mold. The support substrate and the mold are pressed together to cause the molding material to fill the indentation. The flexible film conforms to the shape of the light source or the mold.

A semiconductor light emitting device is provided with a separately fabricated wavelength converting element. The wavelength converting element, of e.g., phosphor and glass, is produced in a sheet that is separated into individual wavelength converting elements, which are bonded to light emitting devices. The wavelength converting elements may be grouped and stored according to their wavelength converting properties. The wavelength converting elements may be selectively matched with a semiconductor light emitting device, to produce a desired mixture of primary and secondary light.

A method for fabricating a light emitting device is described where an array of flip-chip light emitting diode (LED) dies are mounted on a submount wafer. Over each of the LED dies is simultaneously molded a hemispherical first silicone layer. A preformed flexible phosphor layer, comprising phosphor powder infused in silicone, is laminated over the first silicone layer to conform to the outer surface of the hemispherical first silicone layer. A silicone lens is then molded over the phosphor layer. By preforming the phosphor layer, the phosphor layer may be made to very tight tolerances and tested. By separating the phosphor layer from the LED die by a molded hemispherical silicone layer, color vs. viewing angle is constant, and the phosphor is not degraded by heat. The flexible phosphor layer may comprise a plurality of different phosphor layers and may comprise a reflector or other layers.

An LED assembly includes a heat sink and a submount. The heat sink has a top mating surface that is solder wettable, and the submount has a bottom mating surface that is solder wettable. The top and the bottom mating surfaces have substantially the same shape and area. The submount is soldered atop the heat sink. During solder reflow, the molten solder causes the submount to align with the top mating surface of the heat sink. The LED assembly may further include a substrate having a top mating surface, and the heat sink may further include a bottom mating surface. The top and bottom mating surfaces have substantially the same shape and area. The heat sink is soldered atop the substrate. During solder reflow, the molten solder causes the heat sink to align with the top mating surface of the substrate.
摘要:
One or more LED dice are mounted on a support structure. The support structure may be a submount with the LED dice already electrically connected to leads on the submount. A mold has indentations in it corresponding to the positions of the LED dice on the support structure. The indentations are filled with a liquid optically transparent material, such as silicone, which when cured forms a lens material. The shape of the indentations will be the shape of the lens. The mold and the LED dice/support structure are brought together so that each LED die resides within the liquid silicone in an associated indentation. The mold is then heated to cure (harden) the silicone. The mold and the support structure are then separated, leaving a complete silicone lens over each LED die. This over molding process may be repeated with different molds to create concentric shells of lenses. Each concentric lens may have a different property, such as containing a phosphor, providing a special radiation pattern, having a different hardness value, or curable by a different technique (e.g., UV vs. heat).

A device includes a submount, and a semiconductor light emitting device mounted on first and second conductive regions on a first side of the submount in a flip chip architecture configuration. The submount has third and fourth conductive regions on a second side of the submount. The third and fourth conductive regions may be used to solder the submount to structure such as a board, without the use of wire bonds. The first and third conductive regions are electrically connected by a first conductive layer and the second and fourth conductive regions are electrically connected by a second conductive layer. The first and second conductive layers may be disposed on the outside of the submount or within the submount.

Acoustic headsets, especially for transmitting sound from stereo transducers to the listener's ears, include two tubes, earpieces at first ends of the tubes, and a frame for constraining the tubes into a convenient U-shape near the wearer's face. The headset has resilient arms at the sides of the U-shaped frame, and more particularly, the arms have resilient inner and outer strips along respective ones of said tubes, facing toward and away from the center line of the frame. The strips are interconnected at their extremities, and in the exemplary embodiment the inner and outer strips of each arm are interconnected by a bridge between the extremities of the strips.

In one embodiment, a flip chip LED is formed with a high density of gold posts extending from a bottom surface of its n-layer and p-layer. The gold posts are bonded to submount electrodes. An underfill material is then molded to fill the voids between the bottom of the LED and the submount. The underfill comprises a silicone molding compound base and about 70-80%, by weight, alumina (or other suitable material). Alumina has a thermal conductance that is about 25 times better than that of the typical silicone underfill, which is mostly silica. The alumina is a white powder. The underfill may also contain about 5-10%, by weight, TiO2 to increase the reflectivity. LED light is reflected upward by the reflective underfill, and the underfill efficiently conducts heat to the submount. The underfill also randomizes the light scattering, improving light extraction. The distributed gold posts and underfill support the LED layers during a growth substrate lift-off process.
摘要:
An LED wafer with a growth substrate is attached to a carrier substrate by, for example, a heat-releasable adhesive so that the LED layers are sandwiched between the two substrates. The growth substrate is then removed, such as by laser lift-off. The exposed surface of the LED layers is then etched to improve light extraction. A preformed phosphor sheet, matched to the LEDs, is then affixed to the exposed LED layer. The phosphor sheet, LED layers, and, optionally, the carrier substrate are then diced to separate the LEDs. The LED dice are released from the carrier substrate by heat or other means, and the individual LED dice are mounted on a submount wafer using a pick-and-place machine. The submount wafer is then diced to produce individual LEDs. The active layer may generate blue light, and the blue light and phosphor light may generate white light having a predefined white point.
