  • Patent number: 7687823
    Abstract: A light-emitting apparatus includes a package including a support having a central section and a peripheral section around the central section. The central section is raised upwardly from the peripheral section, providing a pedestal for supporting a light-emitting device. A light-emitting device secured on an upper surface of the pedestal and has electrodes. Electrically conductive members are provided on a peripheral region of the package and electrically connected to the electrodes of the light-emitting device. A color conversion layer covers the light-emitting device. A light-transmitting member is formed in the package, sealing at least the light-emitting device together with the color conversion layer. The pedestal has its side surface at least partially exposed from the color conversion layer.
