Abstract

The present disclosure involves an LED lamp. The LED lamp includes a plurality of light-emitting diode (LED) light sources located on a substrate. At least a subset of the LED light sources is free of a phosphor coating. The LED lamp includes a multi-layered cap structure located over at least the subset of the LED light sources. The cap structure contains a phosphor material and a diffuser material. The cap structure is physically separated from the subset of the LED light sources by a gap. The LED lamp includes a cover structure positioned over and surrounding the LED light sources and the cap structure.
