Classification: CPC H  F | IPC F  H

Claim 18:
19. A method for making a light emitting diode array, the method comprising:
forming a monolithic grid comprising resin defining a plurality of cells, the cells comprising sidewalls of the resin;
providing an array of light emitting diodes (LEDs) on a substrate separate from the monolithic grid, the LEDs disposed on a first surface of the substrate;
disposing the monolithic grid on the substrate so that each of the cells surrounds a corresponding one of the LEDs and the sidewalls of the resin are perpendicular to the first surface of the substrate and spaced apart from the LEDs; and
dispensing phosphor into the cells to be in direct contact with the light emitting surface of the LEDs.
