Summary:A method of performing a hot test of a wafer-level, packaged high-brightness phosphor converted light-emitting diode (pc-HBLED) includes selectively heating portions of the phosphor layer using a laser to provide a predetermined temperature gradient in the phosphor layer. The selective heating can directly heat the silicone in a silicone-based phosphor layer, or directly heat the active ion(s) of the phosphor in a LumiramicTM-based phosphor or even the active ion(s) of a silicone-based phosphor layer. A current is applied to the InGaN film to establish a predetermined temperature at the InGaN film junction, the film junction being adjacent to the phosphor layer. Photometric measurements are performed on the HBLED after the selective heating and during the applied electroluminescent current. This method quickly establishes the temperatures and temperature gradients in the HBLED consistent with those of an operating, product-level HBLED, thereby ensuring accurate binning of the HBLED.
