摘要:
A light source comprising an excitation light source for providing excitation light, and an optical wavelength conversion member disposed at a distance from the excitation light source. The optical wavelength conversion member comprises an optical wavelength conversion material for converting the excitation light into stimulated light. The light source also comprises an optical-guiding member that allows the excitation light to be incident on the optical wavelength conversion material, and an optical-collecting member for collecting converted light originating from the optical wavelength conversion material. To separate the paths of the converted light and the excitation light, the etendue of the optical-guiding member is less than or equal to ¼ of the etendue of the optical-collecting member. This allows the optical-guiding member to draw in the excitation light while preventing the excessive escape of the converted light through the optical-guiding member.

A solid state light source device for generating a constant broad band light useful in multiple SLM projectors. The light source device includes a blue or UV/near UV excitation light and a moving plate carrying wavelength conversion materials to convert the excitation light into a broad band light. The wavelength conversion materials include red, green, yellow and/or blue phosphors, and may pass some of the blue excitation light. The broad band light outputted by the phosphor plate includes at least two primary color components and has a constant intensity and spectrum as a function of time. The solid state light source device further includes a second light source such as a blue light source, and a light combination device which combines the output light of the moving phosphor plate and the light from the second light source into one beam of constant, broad band light.

A light source comprising an excitation light source (110) for providing excitation light, and an optical wavelength conversion member disposed at a distance from the excitation light source. The optical wavelength conversion member comprises an optical wavelength conversion material (150) for converting the excitation light into stimulated light. The light source also comprises an optical-guiding member that allows the excitation light to be incident on the optical wavelength conversion material, and an optical-collecting member (130A) for collecting stimulated light originating from the optical wavelength conversion material. To separate the paths of the stimulated light and the excitation light, the etendue of the optical-guiding member is less than or equal to ¼ of the etendue of the optical-collecting member. This allows the optical-guiding member to draw in the excitation light while preventing the excessive escape of the stimulated light through the optical-guiding member. The advantages of the light source are that it can separate the paths of the excitation light and the stimulated light, the light path is simple, and the optical members are easy to manufacture.

A light emitting device and a projection system adopting same. The light emitting device (100) comprises a coherent source (110), a diffusing element (120), and a light guide part (140). The coherent source (110) is used for generating coherent light. The diffusing element (120) includes a first surface (121) and a second surface (122) which are opposite to each other, and the diffusing element (120) is used for dispersing the coherent light coming from the coherent source (110) so as to generate incoherent light. The light guide part (140) is provided on the side of the first surface (121) of the diffusing element (120). The light guide part (140) is used for guiding the coherent light emitting from the coherent source (110) to be incident on the first surface (121) so as to form a first light path, guiding a part of incoherent light emitting from the first surface (121) to emit through the first light path, guiding the remaining incoherent light to emit through a second path, and separating the first path and the second path. The luminous flux of the incoherent light emitting through the first light path is less than that of the incoherent light emitting through the second light path.

A light source device includes a LED light source or a wavelength conversion material having a near Lambertian light emitting surface. The light source device includes a light recycling system to reflect small-angle lights (lights closer to the normal direction of the light emitting surface) back to the light source, and a collection system for collecting and outputting large-angle lights (lights farther away from the normal direction). The lights reflected by the light recycling system is scattered by the emitting surface in all directions, where the large-angle scattered lights are collected by the light collection system and the small-angle scattered light is reflected by the light recycling system again. A second excitation light source without wavelength conversion material or a second light source with its own wavelength conversion material may be provided, and the second light is directed to the light emitting surface by appropriate optical components.

An illumination devices using excitation light and a wavelength conversion material to generated converted light for illumination, where the wavelength conversion material is excited by multiple excitation lights from both sides to achieve increased brightness. The excitation lights incident on the two sides of the wavelength conversion material may have the same color or different colors. Light separation structures are provided on both sides of the wavelength conversion material to separate the excitation light and the converted light. Light separation may be based on color difference or etendue difference of the excitation light and converted light. In one particular example, wavelength conversion material is formed on a surface of an LED which acts as the first excitation light source, and a second excitation light is delivered through a light separation structure onto the other side of the wavelength conversion material.

An illumination device and a projection system using the same. The illumination device includes two or more color channels each including one or more light sources for generating a color light. At least one of the color channels includes light sources of a first type for generating a first (narrow band) light and light sources of a second type for generating a second light. The dominant wavelengths of the first and second lights are within 50 nm of each other, and the width of the combined spectrum (sum of normalized spectra of the first and second lights) is greater than the width of the spectrum of the first light by at least 10 nm. A wavelength-based light combiner is used to combine the color lights from the color channels into a combined light

摘要:
A light source includes two excitation light sources generating two respective excitation lights, a filter, and a wavelength conversion material. The second excitation light has a peak wavelength shorter than that of the first excitation light. The transmittance curves of the filter are dependent on the input angle. The first and second excitation lights are inputted to the filter at angles smaller than a first threshold angle, and angles between the first and a third threshold angle, respectively. Both excitation lights pass through the filter to excite the wavelength conversion material, which generates a converted light but reflects some of the excitation lights. Part of the reflected first excitation light reaches the filter at input angles greater than a second threshold angle and is reflected by the filter back to the wavelength conversion material for recycling. The third and second threshold angles are greater than the first threshold angle.
