Claims14
A method of manufacturing a lens for a light emitting apparatus, comprising:
- forming a lens having an exterior surface;
- and
- applying a photoluminescent material to the exterior surface of the lens by exposing the lens to flying photoluminescent material in a fluidizing bed.
A method of manufacturing a lens for light emitting apparatus, comprising:
- forming a lens having an exterior surface, the lens comprising encapsulation material, wherein the forming of the lens comprises partially curing the encapsulation material;
- and
- applying a photoluminescent material to the exterior surface of the lens when the encapsulation material is partially cured.
A method of manufacturing an elongated lens for a light emitting apparatus, comprising:
- introducing encapsulation material into an elongated mold;
- placing the mold over one or more light emitting semiconductors;
- partially curing the encapsulation material;
- removing the mold from the partially cured encapsulation material;
- and
- exposing the partially cured encapsulation material to flying photoluminescent material in a fluidizing bed.
