Abstract
A high power LED lamp has a GaN chip placed over an AlGaInP chip. A reflector is placed between the two chips. Each of the chips has trenches diverting light for output. The chip pair can be arranged to produce white light having a spectral distribution in the red to blue region that is close to that of daylight. Also, the chip pair can be used to provide an RGB lamp or a red-amber-green traffic lamp. The active regions of both chips can be less than 50 microns away from a heat sink.

47. An LED lamp for producing incoherent visible light comprising:
-
an LED semiconductor structure comprising an n-layer and a p-layer overlying most of the n-layer; first and second terminals; a plurality of spaced conductors on said LED semiconductor structure, each for energizing an associated underlying portion of said n-layer, the associated underlying portion being electrically common to neighboring light-generating portions of the semiconductor structure that are on opposite sides of the spaced conductor;
more than one of said plurality of spaced conductors being connected to said first terminal; andwherein a light-generating portion of the semiconductor structure extends continuously from a vicinity of one of said spaced conductors to a vicinity of another of said spaced conductors, as viewed normal to said layers, and wherein for each of a plurality of said spaced conductors there is an adjacent light-generating portion of the semiconductor structure that extends from one side of the spaced conductor to an opposite side of the spaced conductor, and wherein, for each of at least two of said plurality of spaced conductors, p-layer parts of neighbouring light generating portions of the semiconductor structure that are on opposite sides of the spaced conductor are connected to said second terminal. - View Dependent Claims (48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55)
