Methods of coating semiconductor light emitting elements by evaporating solvent from a suspension
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of fabricating a semiconductor light emitting device comprising:
- placing a suspension comprising particles suspended in solvent on at least a portion of a light emitting surface of a semiconductor light emitting element;
confining the suspension for controlled evaporation on at least a portion of the light emitting surface; and
evaporating at least some of the solvent to cause the particles to deposit on the at least a portion of the light emitting surface and form a coating thereon comprising the particles.

Abstract
Semiconductor light emitting devices are fabricated by placing a suspension including phosphor particles suspended in solvent on at least a portion of a light emitting surface of a semiconductor light emitting element, and evaporating at least some of the solvent to cause the phosphor particles to deposit on at least a portion of the light emitting surface. A coating including phosphor particles is thereby formed on at least a portion of the light emitting surface. Particles other than phosphor also may be coated and solutions wherein particles are dissolved in solvent also may be used.

19. A solid state emitter chip comprising:
-
a solid state emitter;
a coating over said solid state emitter, wherein said coating is formed by placing a suspension comprising particles suspended in a solvent on a least a portion of the light emitting surface of said solid state emitter and where at least some of the solvent is evaporated to cause the particles to deposit on and form said coating on said at least a portion of the light emitting surface. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
