  • Publication number: 20130092965
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a light emitting device exhibiting a superior emission efficiency which enables easy adjustment of an emission spectrum. The above object is achieved by a light emitting device comprising a semiconductor light emitting element and a phosphor layer, which has an area A and an area B of different emission spectra, and in which a plurality of phosphor portions are disposed on a plane such that identical phosphor portions do not adjoin one another, and the surface area occupied by specific phosphor portions in the phosphor layer is different in area A and area B.

  • Publication number: 20130075773
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a light emitting device which increases the emission efficiency of phosphor by reducing self-absorption of light by phosphor and by reducing absorption of fluorescent light by an encapsulating resin, and which increases the efficiency of light extraction from the phosphor layer by preventing light scattering caused by the phosphor. The above object was achieved by a light emitting device comprising a semiconductor light emitting element and a phosphor layer wherein the phosphor layer was made dense by setting specific values for particle distribution of phosphor contained in the phosphor layer and for the packing ratio of the phosphor contained in the phosphor layer.

  • Patent number: 4868444
    Abstract: A surface acoustic wave device having a single crystal aluminum nitride film wherein when the direction of propagation of the surface acoustic wave is expressed by (.lambda.,.mu.,.theta.) according to the Euler angle notation, .theta. is set to 90 degrees, .lambda. to a desired angle, and .theta. to an angle in the range of 30 to 150 degrees. In a surface acoustic wave device having a c-axis-oriented aluminum nitride film, the direction of c-axis orientation of the piezoelectric film is inclined within a plane containing the direction of propagation of the surface acoustic wave and perpendicular to the surface of the piezoelectric film at an angle in the range of about .+-.30 degrees to about .+-.150 degrees with respect to a normal to the piezoelectric film. The devices are 1.122% in maximum coupling coefficient.

  • Patent number: 4485305
    Abstract: An infrared ray detector comprising an infrared ray detecting body, a pair of opposing portions, a bimorph vibrator connected to the pair of opposing portions for intermitting infrared rays incident upon the detector, and a housing containing these elements, the housing being provided with an opening for incidence of infrared rays. The pair of opposing portions comprise infrared ray transmitting portions and infrared ray non-transmitting portions. The infrared ray transmitting portions in one of opposing portions is periodically overlapped by the bimorph vibrator with the infrared ray transmitting portions or infrared ray non-transmitting portions in the other opposing portion, so that incident infrared rays are intermitted.
