Light emitting diode component comprising polysilazane bonding layer

Abstract

In one embodiment, a semiconductor component, such as a wavelength converter wafer, is described wherein the wavelength converter is bonded to an adjacent inorganic component with a cured bonding layer comprising polysilazane polymer. The wavelength converter may be a multilayer semiconductor wavelength converter or an inorganic matrix comprising embedded phosphor particles. In another embodiment, the semiconductor component is a pump LED component bonded to an adjacent component with a cured bonding layer comprising polysilazane polymer. The adjacent component may the described wavelength converter(s) or another component comprised of inorganic material(s) such as a lens or a prism. Also described are methods of making semiconductor components such as wavelength converters and LED's.
