Abstract:
This invention relates to a method of designing an illumination device, wherein a light source unit is modeled with a set of rays. Therein, each ray is assigned a light power and is further characterized by a light volume, which specifies how “spread out” the light is in area and angle. In this way, a selection of rays with respect to their “density” becomes possible, and an optical system can be optimized for a transmission of those rays providing the most light per volume.
Abstract:
An illumination device with an exit surface for pump light propagation with a main propagation direction and a phosphor element for converting the pump light into converted light is disclosed. Further, an optical system with a reflection surface is provided for deflecting the pump light, where the reflection surface reflects the pump light with a directional component opposite to the main propagation direction and onto the phosphor element.
