Abstract

Light emitting diode systems are disclosed.

Claims (24)

1. A system comprising:

a light emitting device including:

a multi-layer stack of materials including a light generating region, and a first layer supported by the light generating region, a surface of the first layer being configured so that light generated by the light generating region can emerge from the light emitting device via a surface of the first layer, a shape of a surface of the multi-layer stack being rectangular and the surface of the first layer having a dielectric function that varies spatially according to a pattern; and

at least one electrical contact pad disposed along an edge of the surface of the first layer; and

a package having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the package including:

a plurality of plated regions for providing electrical contact to the light emitting device; and

a plurality of wire bonds connected between the plated regions and the at least one electrical contact pad.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of wire bonds includes at least about 5 wire bonds.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of wire bonds includes at least about 10 wire bonds.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of wire bonds includes at least about 25 wire bonds.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of wire bonds includes at least about 50 wire bonds.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein an aspect ratio of the surface of the multi-layer stack is about 4×3.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the aspect ratio of the surface of the multi-layer stack is about 16×9.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the package further comprises a light emitting panel.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the package is mounted on a heat sink device.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the package is mounted on a core board.

11. The device of claim 1 , wherein the light emitting device is a light emitting diode.

12. The device of claim 1 , wherein the light emitting device is a surface emitting laser.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein an aspect ratio of the surface of the first layer is about 4×3.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein an aspect ratio of the surface of the first layer is about 16×9.

15. The device of claim 1 , wherein the package further comprises a plurality of castellations to provide electrical contact from the first surface of the package to the second surface of the package.

16. The device of claim 11 , wherein the light emitting diode is a photonic lattice light emitting diode.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein an aspect ratio of the surface of the first layer is about 4×3.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein an aspect ratio of the surface of the first layer is about 16×9.
