Abstract

A method of fabricating closely spaced pcLEDs () arranged in a matrix array () of perpendicular rows and columns comprises an initial phosphor deposition step in which phosphor () is deposited at alternating locations (pixels) in the matrix array in a checkerboard pattern, so that the locations () in the array at which phosphor () is deposited are not adjacent to each other. In a subsequent phosphor deposition step phosphor is deposited at the alternating locations at which phosphor was not deposited in the first deposition step. In between the two phosphor deposition steps, reflective or scattering structures () may be fabricated on sidewalls of the phosphor pixels to optically isolate pcLEDs in the resulting array from each other.
