Publication number: 20230138348Abstract: A polymer dispersion layer is formed on a substrate or semiconductor light-emitting devices on the substrate. After forming the polymer dispersion layer, drying and curing the polymer dispersion layer forms a cured polymer layer. After curing and drying, with the cured polymer layer being present on only selected, masked areas of the substrate or light-emitting devices, and with other areas of the substrate or light-emitting devices lacking the cured polymer layer and remaining exposed, a material layer is formed on at least the exposed areas of the substrate or light-emitting devices. After forming the material layer, the cured polymer layer is removed from the masked areas, leaving the material layer on the exposed areas.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Applicant: LUMILEDS LLCInventors: Jens Meyer, Marinus Johannes Petrus Maria van Gerwen, Ronja Missong

Publication number: 20220359795Abstract: A layer of multiple phosphor particles is formed on a surface of a substrate, and inorganic material is formed or deposited to embed at least partially the layer of phosphor particles on the substrate. A wavelength-converting layer is thus formed, including the phosphor particles and the inorganic material, that is then separated from the substrate. The inorganic material binds together the phosphor particles so that the wavelength-converting layer is self-supporting. In some examples, before separating the wavelength-converting layer from the substrate, a release member can be adhered to a surface of the wavelength-converting layer opposite the substrate; the wavelength-converting layer can remain adhered to the release member after separation from the substrate. In some examples the wavelength-converting layer can be adhered to a light-emitting surface of a semiconductor light-emitting device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2022Publication date: November 10, 2022Applicant: LUMILEDS LLCInventors: Jens MEYER, Niels Jeroen VAN DER VEEN, Ronja MISSONG

Patent number: 10305067Abstract: The invention relates to a substrate (2) for manufacturing an organic conversion device for converting electrical energy into light energy or light energy into electrical energy, wherein the substrate comprises a) an encapsulation layer (3) on the substrate, wherein the encapsulation layer includes a first inorganic layer (7), a second inorganic layer (9) and an intermediate organic layer (8), and b) a getter reservoir (6) in contact with the organic layer of the encapsulation layer. Water molecules will therefore not only be transported along the intermediate organic layer, but will also be gathered, especially absorbed, by the getter reservoir, if the encapsulation is damaged. This can slow down a transport of water molecules along a leakage path towards an organic conversion layer of the organic conversion device and hence slow down a possible degradation of the performance of the organic conversion device, if the encapsulation layer is damaged.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2015Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: OLEDWorks GmbHInventors: Stefan Peter Grabowski, Herbert Lifka, Peter Van De Weijer, Rainald Manfred Gierth, Jens Meyer, Manfred Stephan Ruske, Helga Hummel
