Patent number: 9388959Abstract: A white-light emitter is disclosed, in which a silicone sheet is laminated between a pair of optically clear plastic sheets. The silicone sheet lacks the ability to retain its shape, while the three sheets, when sealed together, can retain a shape. The silicone sheet includes at least one phosphor, with a phosphor concentration between two percent and ten percent. The silicone sheet may be produced by molding. Compared to comparable silicone parts made by extrusion, the molded parts may show less part-to-part variation in color temperature, may be run in significantly smaller batches or as one-offs, and may allow the silicone and phosphor material to be mixed by hand or with a relatively simple mixing machine. In some cases, the sheets are sealed together at their perimeters and include a margin around the phosphor sheet. In some cases, the phosphor sheet includes a mixture of different phosphors.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2012Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: OSRAM SYLVANIA Inc.Inventors: Jason Lessard, Edward Otto
