A light source device includes a primary light source that emits primary light, a light guide that guides the primary light, an optical conversion unit that converts the primary light emitted from the light guide and having a first light distribution angle into secondary light having a second light distribution angle and emits the secondary light, and a light distribution adjustment unit that adjusts the secondary light to illumination light having a third light distribution angle and emits the illumination light. The light distribution adjustment unit and the optical conversion unit slide each other. The light distribution adjustment unit allows a light distribution adjustment amount for adjusting the second light distribution angle of the secondary light to adjust to the third light distribution angle of the illumination light.

The present invention relates to a lighting device (300) having a housing (302) and multiple light sources (308) arranged in the housing. The light sources emit light of a first wavelength range. The lighting device includes a wavelength converting member (310) arranged at a distance from the light sources, and it comprises a first wavelength converting material configured to convert a part of said light of a first wavelength range into light of a second wavelength range. The lighting device further includes a color distribution member (312) providing a color distribution of the light emitted from the lighting device where the ratio of intensity of light with the first wavelength range to the intensity of light with the second wavelength range is larger at low angles to a light output surface of the lighting device than at high angles to the light output surface.

A lighting device (1) is provided comprising at least one light source (3), a wavelength converting element (8) adapted to convert a wavelength of light emitted by the at least one light source, at least one support (7) arranged to support the wavelength converting element remote from the at least one light source, and an envelope (2) adapted to enclose the wavelength converting element and at least a portion of the at least one support. The at least one support is arranged to be able to pivot relative to the wavelength converting element. The present lighting device enables using a rigid wavelength converting element and an at least partially rigid support, as these two components may be moved relative to each other for facilitating insertion of the unit in the envelope.

The invention provides a lighting device for providing light, the lighting device comprising a closed chamber with a light transmissive window and a light source configured to provide light source radiation into the chamber, wherein the chamber further encloses a wavelength converter configured to convert at least part of the light source radiation into wavelength converter light, wherein the light transmissive window is transmissive for the wavelength converter light, wherein the wavelength converter comprises luminescent quantum dots which upon excitation with at least part of the light source radiation generate at least part of the wavelength converter light, and wherein the closed chamber comprises a filling gas comprising one or more of helium gas, hydrogen gas, nitrogen gas or oxygen gas, the filling gas having a relative humidity at 19° C. of at least 5%.

An optical converter for producing colored or white light from blue excitation light is provided. The converter has good scattering properties to be able to produce nearly white light from the scattered blue light components and the scattered, converted yellow light components. The optical converter includes material including one or more of a YAG ceramic, a LuAG ceramic, and a magnesium-aluminum ceramic exhibiting strong scattering.
