Abstract:
Submount based light emitter components and related methods are disclosed. In some aspects, light emitter components include a ceramic submount, at least a first pair of electrical traces disposed on a first side of the submount, at least a first pair of electrical contacts disposed on a second side of the submount, at least one light emitter chip disposed on the first side of the submount, and a non-ceramic reflector disposed about the at least one light emitter chip. The first pair of electrical contacts is configured to electrical communicate with the first pair of electrical traces. The at least one chip is configured to electrically communicate with the first pair of electrical traces. At least a portion of the reflector is configured to conceal a portion of each trace of the first pair of electrical traces.
Abstract:
Light emitting devices and substrates are provided with improved plating. In one embodiment, a light emitting device can include a submount and one or more light emitting diodes (LED) chips disposed over the submount. In one embodiment, the submount can include a copper (Cu) substrate, a first metallic layer of material that is highly reflective disposed over the Cu substrate for increased brightness of the device, and a second metallic layer disposed between the Cu substrate and the first metallic layer for forming a barrier therebetween.
Abstract:
Solid state light emitter devices and methods are provided. A solid state light emitter device can include a submount having an upper surface and a bottom surface. At least first pair and a second pair of electrically conductive contacts can be disposed on the bottom surface of the submount. The first pair of contacts can be electrically independent from the second pair of contacts. The device can further include multiple light emitters provided on the upper surface of the submount. The multiple light emitters can be configured into at least a first light emitter zone that is electrically independent from a second light emitter zone upon electrical communication to a respective pair of contacts.
