  • Patent number: 11641007
    Abstract: A light-emitting device includes a semiconductor diode structure with one or more light-emitting active layers, an anti-reflection coating on its front surface, and a redirection layer on its back surface. Active-layer output light propagates within the diode structure. The anti-reflection coating on the front surface increases transmission of active-layer output light incident below the critical angle ?C. Active-layer output light incident on the redirection layer at an incidence angle greater than ?C is redirected to propagate toward the front surface at an incidence angle that is less than ?C. Device output light is transmitted by the front surface to propagate in an ambient medium, and includes first and second portions of the active-layer output light incident on the front surface at an incidence angle less than ?C, the first portion without redirection by the redirection layer and the second portion with redirection by the redirection layer.

  • Patent number: 11552229
    Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and more particularly LEDs and packaged LED devices with spacer layer arrangements are disclosed. An LED package may include one or more LED chips on a submount with a light-altering material arranged to redirect light in a desired emission direction with increased efficiency. A spacer layer is arranged in the LED package to cover rough surfaces and any gaps that may be formed between adjacent LED chips. When the light-altering material is applied to the LED package, the spacer layer provides a surface that reduces unintended propagation of the light-altering material toward areas of the LED package that would interfere with desired light emissions, for example over LED chips and between LED chips. In various arrangements, the spacer layer may cover one or more surfaces of a lumiphoric material, one or more LED chip surfaces, and portions of an underlying submount.
