  • Patent number: 10600767
    Abstract: A stack of strata containing LEDs is fabricated by repeatedly bonding unpatterned epitaxial structures. Because the epitaxial structures are unpatterned (e.g., not patterned into individual micro LEDs), requirements on alignment are significantly relaxed. One example is an integrated multi-color LED display panel, in which arrays of micro LEDs are integrated with corresponding driver circuitry. Multiple strata of micro LEDs are stacked on top of a base substrate that includes the driver circuitry. In this process, each stratum is fabricated as follows. An unpatterned epitaxial structure is bonded on top of the existing device. The epitaxial structure is then patterned to form micro LEDs. The stratum is filled and planarized to allow the unpatterned epitaxial structure of the next stratum to be bonded. This is repeated to build up the stack of strata.

The excited state of the fluorescent emitter material is occupied by an energy transfer from the second excited state of the phosphorescent emitter material to the excited state of the fluorescent emitter material so that a mixed light composed of first and second electromagnetic radiations is emittable from the first region, and the light that is emittable from the second region is free of second electromagnetic radiation.

  • Patent number: 10431567
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to leadless LED packages and LED displays utilizing white ceramic casings and thin/low profile packages with improved color mixing and structural integrity. In some embodiments, the improved color mixing is provided, in part, by the white ceramic package casing, which can help reflect light emitted from each LED in many directions away from the device. The non-linear arrangement of the LEDs can also contribute to improved color-mixing. The improved structural integrity can be provided by various features in the bond pads that cooperate with the casing for a stronger package structure. Moreover, in some embodiments the thinness/low profile of each package is attributed to its leadless structure, with the bond pads and electrodes electrically connected via through-holes.

  • Patent number: 10375782
    Abstract: An LED arrangement uses a tapped driver driven by a rectified mains input and placed over a light output surface. There are at least first and second groups of LEDs on the light output surface. The total light output density for the LEDs of the second group (which are turned on for less of the mains cycle) per unit area of the light output surface is greater than the total light output density for the LEDs of the first group per unit area of the light output surface. A fraction of a light emitting surface of the second group (16) of LEDs to a second area (20B) of the light output surface occupied in a macro view by the second group (16) of LEDs, is larger than a fraction of a light emitting surface of the first group (14) of LEDs to a first area (20A) of the light output sur face occupied in a macro view by the first group (14) of LEDs. This means the light output density when averaged over time is made more consistent between the two (or more) groups of LEDs.
