Light-emitting devices and related systems
First Claim
1. A light-emitting panel assembly comprising:
- a light-emitting device designed to emit light;
a heat pipe in contact with the light-emitting device and designed to extract heat from the light-emitting device; and
an illumination panel associated with the light-emitting device such that light emitted from the light-emitting device passes therethrough, wherein the light-emitting device is arranged to emit light into an edge of the illumination panel.

Abstract
Light-emitting devices can include a package that supports one or more light-emitting die (e.g., light-emitting diode die, laser diode die) and which can ensure mechanically stability, can facilitate electrical and/or thermal coupling with light-emitting die, and can manipulate the manner by which light generated by the die is emitted out of the light-emitting device. The package can also facilitate the integration of the light-emitting devices in various components and systems. For example, suitable packages may facilitate the use of light-emitting devices in components and systems such as light-emitting panel assemblies, LCD back lighting, general lighting, decorative or display lighting, automotive lighting, and other types of lighting components and systems.
