LED fabrication using high-refractive-index adhesives

Systems for light-emitting diode component fabrication. Solutions to the problems attendant to effective use of high-refractive-index adhesives depends on uninhibited curing so as to achieve contaminant-free and debris-free adhesion between surfaces. Devices are designed and manufactured such that the surfaces to be bonded together are prepared in a manner that facilitates use of high-refractive-index adhesives. A multi-step process involving two different concentrations of a catalyst is performed so as to fabricate highly-reliable, non-browning, and non-cracking LEDs when using high-refractive-index adhesives.
