HERMETICALLY SEALED SOLID STATE LAMP

摘要

An electro-luminiscent solid state lamp that may selectively include either a visible light or infra-red light emitting diodes in combination with a hermetically sealed assembly for maintaining the selected diode in isolation from contact with the ambient atmosphere, with the assembly concurrently acting as a heat sink to permit the diode to operate on an electric current of greater magnitude for a prolonged period of time than would otherwise be possible, and as a protector to prevent the diode from being physically damaged by inadvertent forceful contact with a hard object.
