LED Chip and Module
Epi/chip. Epitaxy refers to the process of evolving a wafer (sapphire or SiC, for instance) by depositing epitaxial layers on the wafer using MOCVD. Creating the epitaxial layers is the most critical and capital-intensive step in LED manufacturing. After additional wafer processing to create the metal connection, the wafer is cut up ("diced") into chips. Although it can be used for different applications, the quality requirements (mainly efficacy) of the epi/chip differ by application.

Module (sometimes called light engine). Creation of a module (light engine) is the next step in the LED lighting value chain. The module (light engine) mainly consists of one or more LED packages, secondary optics, a heat sink and an electrical driver. The LEDs are mounted on a PCB (printed circuit board), and the modules (light engines) are integrated with optics and thermal/power management components to optimize the module (light engine) to each application.
