  • Patent number: 9318649
    Abstract: A curing device may comprise a first array of LED's, each LED of the first array emitting radiation substantially centered at a first excitation wavelength onto a quantum dot layer, the quantum dot layer positioned above the first array of LED's and configured to partially absorb the first excitation wavelength radiation and down convert the absorbed first excitation wavelength radiation, and partially transmit the emitted first excitation wavelength radiation, wherein the down converted and the partially transmitted first excitation wavelength radiation are directed onto a radiation-curable workpiece.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20140376221
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a lighting module and related components for efficiently directing dissipated heat and/or heated air away from the lighting module. Deflectors are often used to funnel heat away from solid-state light emitters and channel airflow away from a curing surface, but the risk of constrained airflow may negatively affect emitter output as well as disturb the curing process of a workpiece emitted light is directed towards. To efficiently remove heat as well as not disturb the curing process or shape of the lighting module, louvered vents are provided that extend into an interior of a housing of the lighting module for guiding heated air in a deflecting direction away from the emitted light direction.
