Abstract:
A method according to embodiments of the invention includes providing a plurality of LEDs attached to a mount. A filter is attached to at least one of the plurality of LEDs. A protective layer is formed over the filter. A reflective layer is formed over the mount. A portion of the reflective layer disposed over the protective layer is removed.
Abstract:
A method according to embodiments of the invention includes providing a plurality of LEDs (60) attached to a mount (62). A filter (102) is attached to at least one of the plurality of LEDs. A protective layer (104) is formed over the filter. A reflective layer (74) is formed over the mount. A portion of the reflective layer disposed over the protective layer is removed.
Abstract:
A ceramic green wavelength conversion element (120) is coated with a red wavelength conversion material (330) and placed above a blue light emitting element (110) such that the ceramic element (120) is attached to the light emitting element (110), thereby providing an efficient thermal coupling from the red and green converters (330, 120) to the light emitting element (110) and its associated heat sink. To protect the red converter coating (330) from the effects of subsequent processes, a sacrificial clear coating (340) is created above the red converter element (330). This clear coating (340) may be provided as a discrete layer of clear material, or it may be produced by allowing the red converters to settle to the bottom of its suspension material, thereby forming a converter-free upper layer that can be subjected to the subsequent fabrication processes.
