Zusammenfassung:Solid-state lighting devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and more particularly sealing structures for LED packages are disclosed. Sealing structures include multiple seals within an LED package that provide a multiple barrier structure for enhanced protection from elemental ingress from a surrounding environment. Certain seals may be provided as bonding materials between cover structures and submounts of LED packages, thereby enclosing LED chips. Additional seals may be provided as coatings on surfaces of LED chips and/or submounts that are between cover structures and LED chips. Sealing structures may include multiple levels of hermetic seals with LED packages.
