Light-scattering color-conversion material layer
First Claim
1. A light-scattering color-conversion material layer having two sides, comprising first light-scattering particles intermixed with second different color-conversion material particles, wherein the concentration of the light scattering particles is greater towards a first side of the layer relative to the concentration of light-scattering particles towards the opposite side of the layer, or wherein the concentration of the color-conversion material particles is less towards the first side of the layer relative to the concentration of color-conversion material particles towards the opposite side of the layer.

Abstract
A light-scattering color-conversion material layer having two sides, comprising first light-scattering particles intermixed with second different color-conversion material particles, wherein the concentration of the light scattering particles is greater towards a first side of the layer relative to the concentration of light-scattering particles towards the opposite side of the layer, and/or wherein the concentration of the color-conversion material particles is less towards the first side of the layer relative to the concentration of color-conversion material particles towards the opposite side of the layer. A method of making such a light-scattering color-conversion material layer is also described, and light emitting devices comprising one or more EL elements formed on a substrate and such a light-scattering color-conversion material layer optically coupled with the EL element.

13. A method of forming a light-scattering color-conversion material layer comprising the steps of:
-
coating a first layer comprising light-scattering particles on a substrate; and
coating a second layer comprising color-conversion material particles over the first layer, wherein the color-conversion material particles and light-scattering particles intermix at the interface of the first and second layers to form an integral layer, wherein the concentration of the light scattering particles is greater towards a first side of the integral layer relative to the concentration of light-scattering particle towards the opposite side of the integral layer, or wherein the concentration of the color-conversion material particles is less towards the first side of the integral layer relative to the concentration of color-conversion material particle towards the opposite side of the integral layer. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)

17. A light emitting device, comprising:
-
one or more EL elements formed on a substrate; and
a light-scattering color-conversion material layer optically coupled with the EL element, wherein light emitted from the EL element at a first frequency is absorbed and re-emitted by the color-conversion material at a second, lower frequency and light emitted from, and entrapped in, the EL element is extracted by the light-scattering particles, wherein the concentration of the light scattering particles is greater towards a first side of the layer adjacent to the EL element relative to the concentration of light-scattering particle towards the opposite side of the layer, and wherein the concentration of the color-conversion material particles is less towards the first side of the layer relative to the concentration of color-conversion material particle towards the opposite side of the layer. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
