Abstract: A light bulb having anti-reflective coatings on an inner surface and/or an outer surface of the shell of the light bulb. The anti-reflective coatings reduce light loss due to reflections at the interfaces between the interior of the bulb and the shell and between the shell and the exterior of the bulb. The light source may be either incandescent, fluorescent or LED.

Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) bulb has an LED within a shell. The LED bulb includes a driver circuit for providing current to the LED. The drive circuit has a thermal protection circuit, which includes a first positive thermal coefficient thermistor with a first switching temperature connected in series with a second positive thermal coefficient thermistor with a second switching temperature. The driver circuit includes a switch-mode power supply (SMPS) controller with an input pin and an output pin. The thermistors are connected to the input pin. When either thermistor temperature is above the respective switching temperatures, the thermal protection circuit causes the SMPS controller to produce a signal with a second duty cycle on the output pin. When both thermistor temperatures are below the respective switching temperatures, the thermal protection circuit causes the SMPS controller to produce a signal with a first duty cycle on the output pin.

Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) bulb configured to scatter certain wavelengths of light. The LED bulb includes a base having threads, a bulb shell, at least one LED, and a plurality of particles disposed within the bulb shell. The plurality of particles has a first and second set of particles. The first set of particles is configured to scatter short wavelength components of light emitted from the at least one LED and has particles with an effective diameter that is a fraction of the dominant wavelength of the light emitted from the at least one LED. The second set of particles is configured to scatter light emitted from the at least one LED, and has particles with an effective diameter equal to or greater than the dominant wavelength of the light emitted from the at least one LED.
