Patent number: 11171266Abstract: Pre-formed wavelength conversion elements are attached to light emitting elements and are shaped to reduce repeated occurrences of total internal reflection. The sides of the shaped elements may be sloped or otherwise shaped so as to introduce a change in the angle of incidence of reflected light upon the light extraction surface of the wavelength conversion element. The pre-formed wavelength conversion elements may be configured to extend over an array of light emitting elements, with features between the light emitting elements that are shaped to reduce repeated occurrences of total internal reflection.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2018Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: Lumileds LLCInventors: Clarisse Mazuir, Qingwei Mo, Mei-Ling Kuo, Lin Li, Oleg Borisovich Shchekin

Patent number: 8987016Abstract: The invention relates to light-emitting devices, and related components, systems and methods. In one aspect, the present invention is related to light emitting diode (LED) light extraction efficiency. A non-limiting example, the application teaches a method for improving light emitting diode (LED) extraction efficiency, by providing a nano-rod light emitting diode; providing quantum wells; and reducing the size of said nano-rod LED laterally in the quantum-well plane (x and y), thereby improving LED extraction efficiency.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2011Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: Rensselaer Polytechnic InstituteInventors: Mei-Ling Kuo, Shawn-Yu Lin, Yong Sung Kim, Mei-Li Hsieh
