Abstract: A system and methods for light-emitting diode (LED) devices with a dimming feature that can tailor a color point shift in the light color temperature of a scattering/transparent layer to enlarge a dim to warm range are disclosed herein. A light-emitting device may include a wavelength converting structure configured to receive light from a light emitting semiconductor structure and an adjacent light scattering structure. The light scattering structure may comprise a plurality of scattering particles with a lower refractive index (RI) than the RI of the matrix material in which the scattering particles are disposed. The wavelength converting structure may include a red phosphor and a green phosphor such that to adjust overlap between green emission and absorption by the red phosphor to correspondingly adjust scattering and magnitude of color shift. In an embodiment, the light scattering structure may be integrated in the wavelength converting structure.

Abstract: Light emitting devices (LEDs) are described. An LED includes a light emitting semiconductor structure that includes a light emitting active layer disposed between an n-layer and a p-layer. A wavelength converting material may be disposed adjacent the light emitting semiconductor structure. The wavelength converting material includes multiple pores, at least one of which contains a second material. An absolute value of a ratio of a coefficient of thermal expansion of the second material to a coefficient of thermal expansion of the wavelength converting material is at least two in an embodiment, at least ten in another embodiment, at least 100 in another embodiment, and at least 1,000 in yet another embodiment.
