Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and more particularly LED chips with interconnect structures are disclosed. LED chips are provided that include first interconnects electrically coupled to an n-type layer and second interconnects electrically connected to a p-type layer. Configurations of the first and second interconnects are provided that may improve current spreading by reducing localized areas of current crowding within LED chips. Various configurations are disclosed that include collectively formed symmetric patterns of the first and second interconnects, diameters of certain ones of either the first or second interconnects that vary based on their relative positions in LED chips, and spacings of the second interconnects that vary based on their distances from the first interconnects. In this regard, LED chips are disclosed with improved current spreading as well as higher lumen outputs and efficiencies.

Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) chip with reflective layers having high reflectivity. The LED chip may include an active LED structure including an active layer between an n-type layer and a p-type layer. A first reflective layer is adjacent the active LED structure and comprises a plurality of dielectric layers with varying optical thicknesses. The plurality of dielectric layers may include a plurality of first dielectric layers and a plurality of second dielectric layers of varying thicknesses and compositions. The LED chip may further include a second reflective layer that includes an electrically conductive path through the first reflective layer.

Abstract: A turbomachine component includes a turbine stator nozzle member having an airfoil core shape. The airfoil core shape includes a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y, and Z set forth in TABLE 1, and wherein X and Y are distances in inches which, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z in inches, the profile sections at the Z distances being joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil core shape.
