Structure and method for led with phosphor coating

A light-emitting apparatus, comprising:

• a light-emitting diode (LED) die, wherein the LED die includes a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a sidewall connecting the first and second surfaces;
• a first phosphor film disposed on the first surface, but not on the sidewall, of the LED die;
• and
• a second phosphor film disposed on the first phosphor film, wherein the first phosphor film and the second phosphor film have different material compositions.

A light-emitting apparatus, comprising:

• a package substrate;
• a plurality of light-emitting diode (LED) dies that are spaced apart from one another;
• a first phosphor layer disposed on an upper surface, but not on a sidewall, of each of the LED dies;
• and
• a second phosphor layer disposed on the first phosphor layer of each of the LED dies, wherein the second phosphor layer has a different material composition than the first phosphor layer, and wherein for each LED die, the second phosphor layer is circumferentially surrounded by the respective first phosphor layer therebelow in a top view.
