Optical converter system for (W)LEDs

摘要

The invention relates to an optical converter system for LEDs, preferably for so-called (W)LEDs, and a method for producing the named optical converter system. The modular-type optical converter system comprises an inorganic converter for converting the radiation emitted from the LED, an inorganic optical component, preferably comprising glass, which is disposed downstream relative to the converter in the direction of emission of the LED, wherein the converter and the first optical component are adjacent to one another and joined at least in sections. The optical converter system possesses a temperature resistance, which lies above that of the system known in the prior art. Also, the preferred components of the system are substantially resistant to UV and to chemicals.

主权项

1. An array comprising a plurality of converter modules for converting radiation associated with respective opto-electronic functional elements, each converter module comprising:
at least one inorganic converter for the conversion of at least one of radiation emitted from and radiation received by a respective opto-electronic functional element, wherein the at least one inorganic converter comprises an inorganic matrix material in which luminous substances are embedded; and at least one optical component comprising an inorganic material, which is placed downstream relative to the converter in an emission direction of the respective opto-electronic functional element, wherein the converter and the optical component are inorganically joined together in a cohesive manner to form an inorganic optical converter system that is essentially free of organic components.
