    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a plurality of light emitting devices, each light emitting device having a top surface, a bottom surface opposite the top surface, and at least one side surface connecting the top surface and the bottom surface. A wavelength converting layer is disposed in direct contact with the top surface and one side surface of each of the plurality of light emitting devices to mechanically connect each of the plurality of light emitting devices together. The wavelength converting layer is made up of a wavelength converting material, an adhesive material, and a transparent material that has a thermal conductivity of at least 0.2 W/mK. The adhesive material and the transparent material have indices of refraction that vary less than ten percent.

    Abstract: A multi-stage lamination process is used to laminate a wavelength conversion film to a transparent substrate, and subsequently to a light emitting element. The wavelength conversion film may be an uncured phosphor-embedded silicone polymer, and the lamination process includes heating the polymer so that it adheres to the transparent substrate, but is not fully cured. The phosphor-laminated transparent substrate is sliced/diced and the wavelength conversion film of each diced substrate is placed upon each light emitting element. The semi-cured wavelength conversion film is then laminated to the light emitting element via heating, consequently curing the phosphor film. Throughout the process, no glue is used, and the optical losses associated with glue material are not introduced.

    Abstract: A ceramic green wavelength conversion element (120) is coated with a red wavelength conversion material (330) and placed above a blue light emitting element (110) such that the ceramic element (120) is attached to the light emitting element (110), thereby providing an efficient thermal coupling from the red and green converters (330, 120) to the light emitting element (110) and its associated heat sink. To protect the red converter coating (330) from the effects of subsequent processes, a sacrificial clear coating (340) is created above the red converter element (330). This clear coating (340) may be provided as a discrete layer of clear material, or it may be produced by allowing the red converters to settle to the bottom of its suspension material, thereby forming a converter-free upper layer that can be subjected to the subsequent fabrication processes.
