Abstract
A lighting apparatus includes a light-emitting diode (LED). A light-conversion layer having multiple non-overlapping regions overlies the light-emitting diode. The light-conversion layer includes at least one first region and at least one second region. In the lighting apparatus, the light-emitting diode is configured to emit light of a first color, the at least one first region is substantially transparent to light of the first color, and the at least one second region converts light of the first color to light of a second color. In an embodiment, the light-conversion layer is configured such that the lighting apparatus provides substantially uniform light of a third color. In some embodiments, the second region includes a phosphor-containing material, and the first region includes silicone or epoxy. In an example, the lighting apparatus uses a blue LED in conjunction with a yellow phosphor material to produce white light.
