Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, a flexible light sheet includes a transparent, thin polymer substrate on which is formed a dielectric first light scattering layer containing nano-particles. A transparent conductor layer is formed over the first light scattering layer. An array of microscopic, inorganic vertical LEDs is printed over the transparent conductor layer so that bottom electrodes of the LEDs make electrical contact to the conductor layer. A dielectric second light scattering layer, also containing the nano-particles, is printed over the transparent conductor layer to laterally surround the LEDs. A top conductor layer makes electrical contact to the top LED electrodes to connect the LEDs in parallel. Light from the LEDs is scattered by the nano-particles in the two light scattering layers by Mei scattering. This reduces total internal reflection in both the first light scattering layer and the transparent conductor layer to increase light extraction.
