Abstract
LED packages are disclosed having encapsulants which can have at least one reflective surface. Due to the reflection of light, the encapsulant can serve as a mixing chamber and thus can produce light of a more uniform color. The encapsulant can take many different shapes, including that of a cylinder and that of a rectangular prism. Encapsulants can also include scatterers to further mix the light.
