  • Publication number: 20170062680
    Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) package includes a light-emitting structure, an optical wavelength conversion layer on the light-emitting structure, and an optical filter layer on the optical wavelength conversion layer. The light-emitting structure includes a first-conductivity-type semiconductor layer, an active layer on the first-conductivity-type semiconductor layer, and a second-conductivity-type semiconductor layer on the active layer, and emits first light having a first peak wavelength. The optical wavelength conversion layer absorbs the first light emitted from the light-emitting structure and emits second light having a second peak wavelength different from the first peak wavelength. The optical filter layer reflects the first light emitted from the light-emitting structure and transmits the second light emitted from the optical wavelength conversion layer.
