Articles and methods for rapid manufacturing of solid state light sources

摘要

Rapid manufacturing processes and designs based on solid luminescent elements form solid state light sources. Direct attach, as well as other LED types, are embedded or affixed to the solid luminescent elements to form low cost solid state light sources.

主权项

1. A solid state light source comprising:
at least one solid thermally conductive luminescent element; at least one LED embedded within the at least one solid thermally conductive luminescent element; and an electrical interconnect structure for making electrical connection to the at least one LED; wherein the solid state light source is fabricated in accordance with a process in which at least one step of the process includes irradiating a selected component of the light source with a laser beam, to achieve a selected processing goal rapidly and without unwanted heating of the component.
