This patent marks the 21st remote phosphor patent the Company has received.
This new patent contains broad and fundamental claims covering a wide variety of remote phosphor systems and applications. Allowed claims cover various two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes used in remote phosphor systems. Application coverage includes remote phosphor systems where the phosphor is provided as a surface layer on a carrier such as in the 2D ChromaLit and ChromaLit XT products, as well as phosphor incorporated into the bulk material for three-dimensional, or shaped, phosphor components, such as the ChromaLit Contour and ChromaLit 360 product lines. The patent also covers the inclusion of features to enhance light extraction; further expanding the benefits of remote phosphor systems over that of conventional white LED based lighting systems.
