Abstract: Flip chip LEDs incorporate multi-layer reflectors and light transmissive substrates patterned along an internal surface adjacent to semiconductor layers. A multi-layer reflector may include a metal layer and a dielectric layer containing conductive vias. Portions of a multi-layer reflector may wrap around a LED mesa including an active region, while being covered with passivation material. A substrate patterned along an internal surface together with a multi-layer reflector enables reduction of optical losses. A light transmissive fillet material proximate to edge emitting surfaces of an emitter chip may enable adequate coverage with lumiphoric material. An emitter chip may be elevated with increased thickness of solder material and/or contacts, and may reduce luminous flux loss when reflective materials are present on a submount. Methods for coating emitter chips with lumiphoric material include one or more of angled spray coating, fillet formation prior to spray coating, stencil island coating, and releasable tape coating.

Abstract: Light emitting diode (LED) apparatuses and methods having a high lumen output density. An example apparatus can include a substrate with one or more LEDs enclosed by an encapsulant. The encapsulant comprises beveled edges and/or top surface facets. By providing facets in the encapsulant and minimizing the chip-to-area ratio through efficient via placement, a high lumen density is achieved. Facets and bevels can be created by removing material from the encapsulant with a beveled blade.

Abstract: Light emitting diode (LED) devices and methods. An example apparatus can include a substrate, one or more LEDs, light-transmissive encapsulation material, and a reflective material covering a portion of the encapsulation material to form a defined opening. The opening allows light emitted from an LED to pass through in a prescribed manner. In some embodiments, the apparatus can be subsequently treated to modify the surface having the opening. In other embodiments, the reflective material can be disposed on a lateral surface of the encapsulation material to reflect light in a desired direction.

Abstract: Light emitting diode (LED) devices, components and systems are provided. LED devices include a submount with a plurality of LEDs disposed thereon. The LEDs mounted on a submount can be spaced apart at predetermined dimensions to control the gaps between each of the plurality of LEDs. By controlling the gaps between LEDs the optical output from the LED device can be optimized, including improving emission and/or color uniformity, minimizing or eliminating deadspots in the light emission, and/or minimizing or eliminating an optical cross. A phosphor layer can be disposed on the plurality of LEDs and between the LEDs in the gaps therebetween.
