    摘要: A light source for generating light that is collected by an optical system that collects light leaving the light source within a predetermined acceptance angle relative to an axis defined in relation to the optical system. The light source includes a plurality of LEDs mounted on a reflecting base. Each of the LEDs generates light that leaves that LED via a top surface, a bottom surface, and one or more side surfaces of the LED. The reflecting base has a reflective surface in contact with the bottom surface of each of the LEDs. Light leaving the side surfaces of the LEDs is reflected into the acceptance angle of the optical system by a plurality of reflectors. In one embodiment of the invention, the reflectors include a plurality of reflecting facets for reflecting light leaving the side surfaces of the LEDs. The facets may be part of the reflective base or separate objects located between the LEDs. In another embodiment of the invention, the reflectors include scattering centers located between the LEDs.

    摘要: A light source having emissions in a plurality of spectral bands. The simplest light source according to the present invention is constructed from first and second light sources and a dichroic beam splitter. The first and second solid state light sources emit light in first and second bands of non or only partially-overlapping wavelengths. The dichroic beam splitter combines light from the first and second solid state light sources by passing light in the first band while reflecting light in the second band to generate light having a spectral content in the first and second bands. The solid state light sources are preferably arrays of LEDs, VCSELs, or edge emitting semiconductor lasers. A light source having improved radiance in the green region of the spectrum can be constructed by utilizing first and second solid state light sources that emit in different bands in the green portion of the spectrum. A white light source can be constructed by utilizing a third solid state light source and a second dichroic beam splitter and by choosing the emission bands of the light sources such that light leaving the second dichroic beam splitter is perceived as white by an observer when all three solid state light sources are emitting light. This light source has a radiance that is higher than the radiance of each individual solid state light source.

    摘要: A light source constructed from a two dimensional array of light emitting devices. The light emitting devices include first, second and third types of light emitter. The first type of light emitting device covers a first area in the two dimensional array and emits light in a first region of the optical spectrum. The second type of light emitting device covers a second area in the two dimensional array and emits light in a second region of the optical spectrum, and the third type of light emitting device covers a third area in the two dimensional array and emits light in a third region of the optical spectrum. The first, second, and third areas are chosen such that the simultaneous output from all emitters generates white light. At least one of the emitter types covers an area larger than that covered by the others. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first type of light emitting device includes a light emitting device that emits light at a wavelength less than the wavelength of a green region of the optical spectrum; a color conversion compound absorbs this light and re-emits it in the green region of the optical spectrum.

    摘要: An optical time domain reflectometer that injects at least two complementary code sequences into an optical fiber and detects the return signal produced by each of these code sequences. These return signals are processed to extract the function h.sub.k that is equal to the response function for the fiber when a single pulse is injected into the fiber. This processing utilizes a correlation scheme that has no sidelobe distortion. Various combinations of Golay codes are suitable for use as the complementary codes.
