Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and more particularly LED packages for environmental indication are disclosed. LED packages include one or more LED chips and reactive materials that preferentially react with environmental ingress. After sufficient reactant exposure, the reactive materials may degrade and exhibit reduced electrical conductivity. Reactive material arrangements relative to electrical connections are provided so that the one or more LED chips either turn on, turn off, or lose brightness to provide visual indication of environmental reactants. Reactive materials may form electrical shorting paths that bypass one or more LED chips until sufficient reactant exposure when the shorting paths fail and the one or more LED chips are electrically activated.

Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and more particularly LED packages with materials for reducing effects of environmental ingress are disclosed. Reactive materials are provided within LED packages that preferentially absorb environmental ingress away from other package elements, thereby extending operating lifetimes. Such reactive materials may be configured with redox potentials that are lower than the other package elements to more readily attract and react with environmental ingress that may enter LED packages under various operating environments. Arrangements of reactive materials are described relative to LED chips and corresponding electrical connections. Reactive materials may be formed as coatings, layers, pre-formed structures, and/or distributions of particles within LED packages.

Material arrangements include light-filtering particles or ionic species that are integrated within materials of covers structures that cover LED chips within LED packages. Light-filtering materials may be configured to selectively filter one or more portions of light provided by LED chips and/or lumiphoric materials within LED packages. Dispersing light-filtering materials within covers structures provides protection and mechanical support for the light-filtering materials. Additionally, arrangements and concentrations of light-filtering materials within cover structures may be varied horizontally and/or vertically to tailor emission patterns of corresponding LED packages. Material arrangements include light-filtering species incorporated at an atomic level within cover structures.

Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices, and more particularly to laser etching light-emitting diode (LED) devices and related methods are disclosed. LED devices that use sapphire substrates are difficult to etch using conventional techniques, but laser etching and ablation of sapphire substrates overcomes these challenges. Laser etching a surface of the sapphire substrate can form light-extraction features that include structures formed in or on light-emitting surfaces of substrates. Light-extraction features may include repeating patterns of features with dimensions that, along with reduced substrate thicknesses, provide targeted emission profiles for flip-chip structures, such as Lambertian emission profiles. In some embodiments, laser ablation of the sapphire substrate can also be used to form trenches between active layer portions of an LED matrix to form pixels that reduce interference between the active layer portions.

Abstract: Lighting-emitting devices and more particularly light-emitting diode (LED) chips with multiple wavelength emissions and related methods are disclosed. LED chips include separately formed active LED structures that are bonded together to form a single LED chip capable of emitting multiple wavelengths. Each active LED structure may be separately patterned into a number of individual light-emitting junctions such that after bonding, a single LED chip includes multiple light-emitting junctions from multiple active LED structures. Patterns of individual light-emitting junctions may be selected so that when bonded together, emissions from different active LED structures may pass through LED chips with reduced interactions with one another. Certain aspects include vertical and horizontal offset positions for light-emitting junctions formed from different active LED structures.

In at least one embodiment, the disclosed systems generate the derived dimension by identifying and modifying one or more existing dimensions in the schema based on the fallback expression when reading data from the ingested data collection.

Abstract: A power closure actuator for powering a movable closure includes an output member configured to drive movement of the movable closure, a motor coupled through a gear reduction to drive the output member, and an integrated brake-clutch unit having an input configured to receive drive power from the electric motor. The brake-clutch unit provides independent braking and clutching between the electric motor and the output member via an electric brake actuator and an electric clutch actuator, respectively. Brake and clutch portions of the brake-clutch unit act on a rotor, and brake force can be maintained on the rotor without powering the brake actuator. A clutch disc is biased disengaged from the rotor. The integrated brake-clutch unit provides a drive state between the electric motor and the output member when the brake portion is released concurrently with the clutch portion establishing a power coupling between the clutch disc and the rotor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to performing attribution modeling in real time using user-specified segments of touchpoint data retrieved from a database using a user-specified attribution model. For example, in one or more embodiments, a system stores raw touchpoint data in a database comprising an aggregator and a plurality of nodes. In particular, each node stores touchpoint data associated with a different user. Upon receiving a first query, the system can, in real time, generate and provide a first digital attribution report based on the stored touchpoint data. Upon receiving a second query, the system can generate a second digital attribution report for a user-specified segment of the touchpoint data represented in the first digital attribution report. Specifically, the system retrieves touchpoint data associated with the user-specified segment from the nodes of the database and uses the aggregator to combine the data to generate the second digital attribution report.
