Abstract:
A photoluminescence color display comprises a display panel that displays red, green and blue sub-pixel areas, an excitation source operable to generate excitation radiation for operating the display, and a combined layer of photoluminescence materials and filter pigments. The combined layer comprises at least one photoluminescence material, such as a phosphor material or quantum dots, that is operable to emit light corresponding to red, green and blue sub-pixel areas of the display in response to said excitation radiation.
Abstract:
A light emitting device comprises: a thermally conductive substrate (MCPCB); at least one LED mounted in thermal communication with a surface of the substrate; a housing attached to the substrate and configured such the housing and substrate together define a volume that totally encloses the at least one LED, the housing comprising at least a part that is light transmissive (window); and at least one phosphor material provided on an inner surface of the housing within said volume said phosphor being operable to absorb at least a part of the excitation light emitted by the at least one light emitting diode and to emit light of a second wavelength range. The housing is attached to the substrate such that the volume is substantially water tight, preferably air/gas tight.

Abstract:
A solid-state lamp is described that includes a wavelength conversion component located at one end of the lamp. The solid-state lamp comprises: one or more solid-state light emitting devices (typically LEDs); a thermally conductive body; at least one duct; and a photoluminescence wavelength conversion component remote to the one or more LEDs, located at one end of the lamp. The lamp is configured such that the duct extends through the photoluminescence wavelength conversion component and defines a pathway for thermal airflow through the thermally conductive body to thereby provide cooling of the body and the one or more LEDs.

Abstract:
An inventive LED-based lamp, lamp cover component, and methods for manufacturing thereof are disclosed which provides a light diffusive lamp cover having a diffusivity (transmittance) that is different for different areas (zones or regions) of the cover. The diffusivity and location of those areas are configured so that the emission pattern of the whole lamp meets desired emissions characteristics and optical efficiency levels. The diffusive cover may have any number of specifically delineated diffusivity areas. Alternatively, the cover may provide a gradient of increasing/decreasing diffusivity portions over the cover.
