Abstract: A light emitting device includes an LED having a light emitting top surface and sidewalls. A phosphor structure is attached to the light emitting surface of the LED. The phosphor structure has a light emitting top surface facing away from the LED light emitting surface, and sidewalls. A light reflective material is arranged to cover the sidewalls of the LED and the phosphor structure. A light absorptive region is defined in the light reflective material around a perimeter of the light emitting surface of the phosphor structure. The light absorptive region may be spaced apart from the perimeter of the phosphor structure by a gap. The light absorptive region may be formed by ultraviolet laser illumination of the light reflecting material.

Abstract: A wavelength converting layer may have a glass or a silicon porous support structure. The wavelength converting layer may also have a cured portion of wavelength converting particles and a binder laminated onto the porous glass or silicon support structure.

Abstract: Light emitting devices (LEDs) and methods of manufacturing LEDs are described. A method includes providing a layer of a wavelength converting material on a temporary tape. The wavelength converting material includes at least a binder or matrix material, particles of a non-luminescent material, and phosphor particles and has a concentration of 60%-90% by volume particles of the non-luminescent material and phosphor particles. The layer of the wavelength converting material is separated on the temporary tape to form multiple wavelength converting structures, which are provided on an array type frame. Heat and pressure are applied to the wavelength converting structures on the array type frame.

Abstract: A method is described for providing an LED package including a LED stack having an LED, a phosphor layer, and a sacrificial layer, the LED stack having a top and a sidewall. The top and sidewall of the LED stack are covered with a light reflective material, followed by removal of any excess light reflective material from the top of the LED stack. Using screen printing or other suitable techniques, a light absorbing layer is deposited on the light reflective material, with the deposited light absorbing layer at least partially surrounding the LED stack and defining a gap therebetween of at least 30 microns.
