5mm LED: Epoxy Lamp with a Reflector-Cup Lead Frame (Kosman, US 3,821,590, 1974)
A round LED indicator lamp about 0.200 in (5 mm) across. A red GaP chip sits on a small pedestal at the focus of a paraboloid reflector cup that is part of the lead frame. A fine wire runs from the chip to the other lead. The whole is moulded in clear or tinted epoxy, with small lenses moulded into the front face to spread the light.
Result: an encapsulated LED lamp visible within about ±45°, moulded many at a time on one lead frame.

Make the lead frame with its reflector
Make the lead frame with its reflector
Make a lead frame carrying many lamps. In each, the negative lead ends in a paraboloid reflector cup with a small pedestal at its focus, and the positive lead ends nearby. Not given: the metal, sizes beyond the lamp's 0.200 in diameter.

Mount and bond the chip
Mount and bond the chip
Mount a light-emitting chip with a P-N junction, for example red GaP:Zn,O, on the pedestal, so the cup makes contact with one side of the junction. Connect the other side by a fine wire to the positive lead. About 0.015 in square is the junction size Kosman gives for best efficiency. Not given: the die attach, the wire metal.

Transfer-mould the lamps
Transfer-mould the lamps
Set the bonded lead frame in a mould and transfer-mould clear or tinted thermosetting resin round all the lamps at once, front face down so any flaws fall at the back. The front face carries seven spherical lenses, six in a ring round one, each 0.045 in across with a radius about 0.8 times its width; an inclined edge sends some light out sideways. Ours: bisphenol epoxy (the patent lists epoxy, silicone, polyester or diallyl phthalate). Not given: the mould, the cure.

Cut apart and test
Cut apart and test
Cut the lamps from the lead frame and light each one with current forward through the junction: the face shows seven bright spots in a 0.100 in image, visible up to about 45° off axis. Not given: the current.
