Methods for fabricating semiconductor devices such as LED chips at the wafer level, and LED chips and LED chip wafers fabricated using the methods. An LED chip wafer according to the present invention comprises a plurality of LEDs on a wafer and a plurality of pedestals, each of which is on one of the LEDs. A fluorescent substrate or preform (“preform”) is provided covering at least some of the LEDs, the preform comprising holes with the pedestals arranged within the holes. During operation of the covered ones of said LEDs at least some light from the LEDs passes through the preform and is converted. LED chips are provided that are singulated from this LED chip wafer. One embodiment of a method for fabricating LED chips from a wafer comprises depositing LED epitaxial layers on an LED growth wafer to form a plurality of LEDs on the growth wafer. Pedestals are formed on the LEDs and a fluorescent preform is formed with holes. The fluorescent preform is bonded over at least some of the plurality of LEDs so that at least some light from the covered ones of said LEDs passes through the preform and is converted. The pedestals are arranged in the holes so that an electrical signal is applied to the LEDs through the pedestals.

A white light emitting lamp is disclosed comprising a solid state ultra violet (UV) emitter that emits light in the UV wavelength spectrum. A conversion material is arranged to absorb at least some of the light emitting from the UV emitter and re-emit light at one or more different wavelengths of light. One or more complimentary solid state emitters are included that emit at different wavelengths of light than the UV emitter and the conversion material. The lamp emits a white light combination of light emitted from the complimentary emitters and from the conversion material, with the white light having high efficacy and good color rendering. Other embodiments of white light emitting lamp according to the present invention comprises a solid state laser instead of a UV emitter. A high flux white emitting lamp embodiment according to the invention comprises a large area light emitting diode (LED) that emits light at a first wavelength spectrum and includes a conversion material. A plurality of complimentary solid state emitters surround the large area LED, with each emitter emitting light in a spectrum different from the large area LED and conversion material such that the lamp emits a balanced white light. Scattering particles can be included in each of the embodiments to scatter the light from the emitters, conversion material and complimentary emitters to provide a more uniform emission.

A light emitting diode (LED) package comprising a substrate with an LED chip mounted to the substrate and in electrical contact with it. An inner material covers the LED chip, and a lens covers the inner material with the lens material being harder than the inner material. An adhesive is arranged between the substrate and the lens to hold the lens to the substrate and to compensate for different coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) between the lens and the remainder of the package. A method for forming an LED package comprises providing a substrate with a first meniscus ring on a surface of the substrate. An LED chip is mounted to the substrate, within the meniscus ring. An inner material is deposited over the LED chip, and a lens material in liquid form is deposited over the inner material. The lens material held in a hemispheric shape by the first meniscus feature and the lens material is cured making it harder than the inner material.

An LED lamp or bulb is disclosed that comprises a light source, a heat sink structure and an optical cavity. The optical cavity comprises a phosphor carrier having a conversions material and arranged over an opening to the cavity. The phosphor carrier comprises a thermally conductive transparent material and is thermally coupled to the heat sink structure. An LED based light source is mounted in the optical cavity remote to the phosphor carrier with light from the light source passing through the phosphor carrier. A diffuser dome is included that is mounted over the optical cavity, with light from the optical cavity passing through the diffuser dome. The properties of the diffuser, such as geometry, scattering properties of the scattering layer, surface roughness or smoothness, and spatial distribution of the scattering layer properties may be used to control various lamp properties such as color uniformity and light intensity distribution as a function of viewing angle.
