20110045614 | Method and Apparatus for Providing LED Package with Controlled Color Temperature - An optical device capable of illuminating visual light with adjusting color temperature after fabrication is disclosed. The optical device includes a solid state light emitter and a phosphor layer, which is formed over the solid state light emitter. The solid state light emitter, which can be a light emitter diode (“LED”), converts electrical energy to blue light. The phosphor layer subsequently converts first light with a first wavelength to second light with a second wavelength. In one example, the first light is blue light while the second light is white light. A portion of the phosphor layer is adjusted after the phosphor layer is formed for adjusting color of the white light in accordance with color quality of the light detected by a light detector. | 02-24-2011 |
