Patent ID: 8883528

Claim:
A method of fabricating a light emitting device comprising: selecting a desired color for the light emitting device to emit when operated; mounting a light emitting diode chip in a package, the light emitting diode chip comprising a light emitting surface; determining together for a particular mixture of at least one phosphor and a light transmissive thermosetting material both a dispensing volume of said particular mixture and a temperature for said package that will cause dispersion and curing of said particular mixture on said mounted package that will cause the light emitting device when operated to emit the desired color; heating the package to the determined temperature; dispensing the determined volume onto the light emitting surface of the chip; and the heating temperature and dispensed volume together causing the mixture of the at least one phosphor and the light transmissive thermosetting material to flow over and cover at least the light emitting surface of the chip; and the heating temperature and selected volume together causing the mixture of the at least one phosphor and the light transmissive thermosetting material to cure at a thickness that causes the light emitting device when operated to emit the desired color.
