A light emitting diode (LED) device (A) and processes for its manufacture are provided. The LED device (A) includes a light emitting chip or die (10) and an encapsulant (22) surrounding the same. The encapsulant (22) is substantially spherical in shape, and the die (10) is preferably located at a substantial center of the encapsulant (22). An electrically conductive path extends from the chip or die (10) to a periphery of the encapsulant (22) such that the chip/die (10) can be selectively energized to produce light by applying electricity to the electrically conductive path at the periphery of the encapsulant (22). Preferably, the encapsulant (22) is chosen to have an index of refraction as close as possible to the higher of an index of refraction of the die's semiconductor material and an index of refraction of the die's substrate (12).
