Light emitting diode (LED) components and methods

Abstract:

Light emitting diode (LED) components and related methods are disclosed. LED components include a submount, at least one LED chip on a first surface of the submount, and a non-reflective, light permeable structure or dam. The light permeable dam can provide a component having a viewing angle that is greater than 115.degree.. A method of providing an LED component includes providing a non-metallic submount, attaching at least one LED chip to a first surface of the submount, and dispensing a non-reflective, light permeable dam over the first surface of the submount about the at least one LED chip thereby providing a component having a viewing angle that is greater than 115.degree..
