Abstract: The present invention relates to a current-light conversion device (1), such as an OLED or an OPVD, wherein the current-light conversion device comprises a substrate (10), a current-light conversion arrangement (11) comprising a current-light conversion material (111) provided between a first and a second electrode layer (110, 112), and a barrier layer (12) comprising a transparent organic layer (121) provided between a first and a second transparent inorganic barrier layer (120, 122). A getter material is provided in the transparent organic layer (121) in a pattern of getter dots (1210). Since the getter material is provided in a pattern of getter dots (1210), the light scattering effect resulting from dispersed getter particles can be avoided, resulting in improved transparency characteristics of the barrier layer (12) while still providing the desired getter functionality.

Abstract: A wave guide that can be deformed into a required shape and fixed in that shape by polymerization of the material. The wave guide substrate comprises a flexible monomer or oligomer material that is polymerized to form a rigid polymer and fix the shape of the wave guide. Light sources, such as LED's, and/or photo voltaic cells may be embedded within the substrate of the wave guide so that the wave guide is a luminaire or solar concentrator, respectively.

Abstract: The invention provides a lighting device (1) comprising (a) a light source (100), for producing light source light (110), and (b) a transparent converter device (200), for converting at least part of the light source light (110), wherein the transparent converter device (200) comprises a first polymer containing matrix (201) containing discrete particles (210), wherein the discrete particles (210) comprise a second polymer containing matrix with luminescent material (212) dispersed therein.

Abstract: The invention provides a lighting device comprising (a) a transparent waveguide plate (200), with first surface (201), opposite second surface (202), and edge surface between the first surface and the second surface, (b) a light source (300) for providing light source light towards a light incoupling surface of the transparent waveguide plate, configured to provide at least part of the light source light in a direction perpendicular to one or more of the first surface and the second surface. The transparent waveguide plate further comprises a luminescent material, (400) configured to convert at least part of the light source light into luminescent material emission, and light outcoupling means (220) for coupling luminescent material emission and optionally light source light out of the transparent waveguide plate as lighting device light in a direction away from one or more of the first surface and the second surface.
