SOLID STATE TRANSDUCER DEVICES, INCLUDING DEVICES HAVING INTEGRATED ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PROTECTION, AND ASSOCIATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/032701

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

Solid state transducer devices having integrated electrostatic discharge protection and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a solid state transducer device includes a solid state emitter, and an electrostatic discharge device carried by the solid state emitter. In some embodiments, the electrostatic discharge device and the solid state emitter share a common first contact and a common second contact. In further embodiments, the solid state lighting device and the electrostatic discharge device share a common epitaxial substrate. In still further embodiments, the electrostatic discharge device is positioned between the solid state lighting device and a support substrate.
