Hybrid chip-on-board LED module with patterned encapsulation

Abstract

Light modules and methods of forming light modules are disclosed. A light module includes a first plurality and a second plurality of light emitting elements configured to emit, respectively, a first light and a second light, and both arranged on a substrate. An encapsulation layer is disposed over the first and second plurality of the light emitting elements, and a wavelength converting element is dispersed in the encapsulation layer. A concentration of the wavelength converting element in the encapsulation layer varies, is larger over the first plurality of light emitting elements and is smaller over the second plurality of light emitting elements.
