Abstract: An illumination system includes: a laser array assembly including: a laser configured to generate a laser light; a crystal phosphor waveguide, adjacent to the laser and in the laser light, configured to: generate of a luminescent light based on receiving the laser light, and direct the luminescent light away from a base end; and a compound parabolic concentrator (CPC), coupled to the crystal phosphor waveguide opposite the base end, configured to: collect the luminescent light from the crystal phosphor waveguide, project the luminescent light away from the crystal phosphor waveguide.

Abstract: An illumination system includes an input device configured to generate a first luminescent light beam; a pumping assembly, optically coupled to the input device, configured to project a pumping light beam into the input device; a focusing lens, aligned with the first luminescent light beam, to focus the first luminescent light beam enhanced by the pumping light beam as an output beam; and an output device, optically coupled to the focusing lens, configured to: receive the output beam from the focusing lens, and project an application output, formed with the output beam, from a projection device.
