Abstract: Light emitting diode (LED) constructions comprise an LED having a pair of electrical contacts along a bottom surface. A lens is disposed over the LED and covers a portion of the LED bottom surface. A pair of electrical terminals is connected with respective LED contacts, are sized larger than the contacts, and connect with the lens material along the LED bottom surface. A wavelength converting material may be interposed between the LED and the lens. LED constructions may comprise a number of LEDs, where the light emitted by each LED differs from one another by about 2.5 nm or less. LED constructions are made by attaching 2 or more LEDs to a common wafer by adhesive layer, forming a lens on a wafer level over each LED to provide a rigid structure, removing the common wafer, forming the electrical contacts on a wafer level, and then separating the LEDs.

Abstract: Detection devices, systems, and methods include those for detecting analytes (e.g., volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and/or other chemical substances) from a target area of a subject's anatomy (e.g., a subject's skin, a wound on a subject, etc.).

Abstract: Standardized photon building blocks are used to make both discrete light emitters as well as array products. Each photon building block has one or more LED chips mounted on a substrate. No electrical conductors pass between the top and bottom surfaces of the substrate. The photon building blocks are supported by an interconnect structure that is attached to a heat sink. Landing pads on the top surface of the substrate of each photon building block are attached to contact pads disposed on the underside of a lip of the interconnect structure. In a solder reflow process, the photon building blocks self-align within the interconnect structure. Conductors on the interconnect structure are electrically coupled to the LED dice in the photon building blocks through the contact pads and landing pads. The bottom surface of the interconnect structure is coplanar with the bottom surfaces of the substrates of the photon building blocks.
