  • Publication number: 20190326485
    Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and more particularly packaged LEDs with light-altering materials are disclosed. A light-altering material is provided in particular configurations within an LED package to redirect light from an LED chip within the LED package and contribute to a desired emission pattern of the LED package. The light-altering material may also block light from the LED chip from escaping in a non-desirable direction, such as large or wide angle emissions. The light-altering material may be arranged on a lumiphoric material adjacent to the LED chip in various configurations. The LED package may include an encapsulant on the light-altering material and the lumiphoric material.

  • Patent number: 10431568
    Abstract: Light emitting diode (LED) devices, components and systems are provided. LED devices include a submount with a plurality of LEDs disposed thereon. The LEDs mounted on a submount can be spaced apart at predetermined dimensions to control the gaps between each of the plurality of LEDs. By controlling the gaps between LEDs the optical output from the LED device can be optimized, including improving emission and/or color uniformity, minimizing or eliminating deadspots in the light emission, and/or minimizing or eliminating an optical cross. A phosphor layer can be disposed on the plurality of LEDs and between the LEDs in the gaps therebetween.

  • Publication number: 20190057954
    Abstract: A light emitter device includes a submount with a top surface and a bottom surface, electrically conductive traces on the top surface of the submount, light emitting diodes (LEDs) arranged on the top surface of the submount in light emitter zones, with the LEDs being electrically connected to respective traces of the traces, a retention material disposed over the top surface of the submount in a form of walls which physically separate the light emitter zones, and encapsulants that are dispensed in respective light emitter zones of the light emitter zones. The LEDs are individually addressable to independently control an output of light from each of the LEDs to produce a specified light output.

A least a portion of the plurality of walls of the retention material can comprise a translucent material, a reflective material, and/or a light-absorbing material. The LEDs are individually addressable to independently control an output of light from each of the LEDs to produce a specified light output.
