EP1544925A3

Method of packaging a semiconductor light emitting device

Abstract

A semiconductor light emitting device is packaged by forming a sealed compartment enclosing the device, at least one of the walls of the sealed compartment being formed of an elastomeric material. The elastomeric material is then penetrated with a needle and a quantity of softer material is injected through the needle into the sealed compartment. In some embodiments, a coaxial needle or two needles are used, one needle to inject the softer material and one needle to vent air from the compartment.
