  • Publication number: 20130208478
    Abstract: A detachable device to convert a laser into a light source such as a flashlight or other illumination light source is provided. An adapter is provided whose output is coaxial to the path of the illuminating beam using rear illumination of the phosphor. A dichroic mirror is used as the substrate to which the phosphor adhered. The dichroic mirror is chosen to have low reflectivity at the illuminating wavelength (typically 445 nm) and to have high reflectivity for wavelengths longer than that of the illuminating source. The dichroic coating may either be on the same side as the phosphor or the opposite side to the phosphor.

  • Publication number: 20110226266
    Abstract: This invention generally relates to a smoking device that users a laser diode to light a smokable material that is stored within the smoking device. The smoking device is preferably a portable device that allows for insertion of a smokable material, and which ignites the smokable material using a battery-powered laser diode. The smoking device includes a coupling interface that requires all housing components to be secured prior to activation of the laser diode, thereby preventing the surrounding environment from exposure to laser beams and laser radiation.
