Abstract:
Light emitter components, systems, and related methods having improved optical efficiency and a lower manufacturing cost are disclosed. In one aspect, a light emitter component can include a substrate having an elongated body and first and second ends. At least a first trace and a second trace can be provided on the substrate. In some aspects, the first trace can be disposed proximate the first end of the substrate and the second trace can be disposed proximate the second end of the substrate, with no other portion of the first trace or second trace being disposed between the first and second ends of the substrate. In some aspects, a string of LED chips can be provided on the substrate. The string of LED chips can be disposed between the first and second ends of the substrate. Angled traces, gaps and light emitter components can also be provided in some aspects.
Abstract:
Light emitting devices include a Light Emitting Diode (LED) chip having an anode contact and a cathode contact on a face thereof. A solder mask extends from the gap between the contacts onto one or both of the contacts. The LED chip may be mounted on a printed circuit board without an intervening submount. Related fabrication methods are also described.

Abstract:
High voltage array light emitting devices, fixtures and methods are disclosed. In one embodiment a light emitting device can include a submount, a light emission area disposed over the submount and a retention material adapted to be dispensed about the light emission area. The light emitting device can be operable at high voltages which are greater than approximately 40 volts (V). In one aspect, the retention material can be least partially disposed within the light emission area such that the retention material physically separates a first section of the light emission area from a second section of the light emission area.
