An LED lamp A1 includes a plurality of LED modules 1 and a substrate 2 on which the LED modules 1 are mounted in a row. A light guide 3 covering the LED modules 1 is provided on the substrate 2. The light guide 3 is held in close contact with each of the LED modules. With this arrangement, a proper amount of light is obtained with the use of a smaller number of LED modules 1 or with less power consumption.

This specification relates to a lighting apparatus, including a support and three or more surface light source panels provided on the support. The surface light source panel has two or more types of light-emitting colors.

The present invention relates to a LED device at least comprising a LED module with one or several LEDs mounted on a carrier, a heat sink or heat spreader and a thermal interface between the carrier and the heat sink. The carrier is thermally connected via the thermal interface to the heat sink. The thermal interface is formed of a member of a heat-conducting material, which is ductile at least during assembling of the device and allows to arrange the heat sink in orientation and position substantially independent from the carrier. The proposed LED device allows for flexible design solutions of the thermal components as well as the overall design, e. g. for applications in automotive lighting.

An illumination device is provided with an arrangement for reducing color unevenness. A plurality of light-emitting devices are provided, each of which includes a transparent enclosure sealing a light-emitting element and further including a phosphor excited by light emitted from the light-emitting element. A substrate is provided upon which the plurality of light-emitting devices are mounted. The light-emitting devices are provided with predetermined color temperatures that vary in accordance with their position along the substrate to reduce color unevenness, for example increasing in a phased manner from the center of the substrate toward the outer circumference thereof.

An illumination unit includes one or more light sources each including a solid-state light-emitting device configured to emit light from a light emission region including a single or a plurality of light-emitting spots. The solid-state light-emitting device includes a single chip or a plurality of chips each emitting a light beam. Three or more of the light-emitting spots are provided within the whole of one or more light sources, to allow the whole of one or more light sources to emit light beams in two or more wavelength bands different from one another, and the solid-state light emitting device in a first light source which is at least one of the one or more light sources, has a plurality of light-emitting spots which emit light in the same wavelength band.

A light emitting device (1) includes: three or more light emitting units (10, 20, 30) that individually include blue light emitting element, a wavelength range of the blue light emitting element accommodated in respective packages being different from each other. The light emitting device mixes output lights from the light emitting units (10, 20, 30) to output white light of a predetermined chromaticity. In an xy chromaticity diagram, the chromaticity of the output light from each of light emitting units (10, 20, 30) is located at a distance from the predetermined chromaticity. The difference between the chromaticity of the output light from each of the light emitting units (10, 20, 30) and the predetermined chromaticity is not greater than 0.04.
