Abstract

An optical bonding composition and LED light source comprising the composition are disclosed, as well as a method of making the LED light source. The LED light source may comprise: an LED die; an optical element optically coupled to the LED die; and a bonding layer comprising an amorphous organopolysiloxane network, the organopolysiloxane network comprising a silsesquioxane portion derived from (R1SiO1.5)n wherein R1 is an organic group and n is an integer of at least 10; the bonding layer bonding the LED die and the optical element together. Efficiency of the LED light source may be increased when using an optical extractor as the optical element.
