  • Tuned light emitting devices
    Patent number: 10103293
    Abstract: Methods of treating an emission spectrum of visible light emitted from a light emitting source, and resulting apparatus, are disclosed. The methods include obtaining the visible light emission spectrum emitted from the light emitting source and a desired visible light emission spectrum. The methods may also include determining at least one wavelength of the emission spectrum of the source with an irradiance or intensity that is less than that of the desired emission spectrum. The methods may include selecting at least one pigment that is effective in tuning the emission spectrum of the source by increasing the intensity or irradiance of the at least one wavelength. The methods may include applying the at least one pigment to the light emitting source to treat the emission spectrum emitted therefrom.
    Type: Grant
