Abstract

The present invention provides light emitting diode (LED) devices and methods. The example apparatus can include a substrate, one or more LEDs, light-transmissive encapsulation material, and a reflective material covering a portion of the encapsulation material to form a defined opening. The opening allows light emitted from an LED to pass through in a prescribed manner. In some embodiments, the apparatus can be subsequently treated to modify the surface having the opening. In other embodiments, the reflective material can be disposed on a lateral surface of the encapsulation material to reflect light in a desired direction.

Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Patent Application Serial No. 15 / 593,042, filed May 11, 2017, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The subject matter disclosed herein relates generally to light emitting diodes (LEDs), assemblies, and related methods. More particularly, the subject matter disclosed herein relates to solid state lighting devices and related methods of controlling light output. Background technique [0004] Light emitting diodes or "LEDs" are solid-state devices that convert electrical energy into light. [0005] Conventional LED arrays can sometimes have a transparent encapsulant covering the individual LEDs, eg, to protect the LEDs and maximize the efficiency of the device. However, when used in certain applications, it may be desirable to reduce and / or focus the amount of reflected light. Directing and controlling the amount o...
