Wavelength conversion component having photo-luminescence material embedded into a hermetic material for remote wavelength conversion

A method for manufacturing a wavelength conversion component for a light emitting device, comprising:

• depositing a mixture of photo-luminescent material and an amorphous hermetic material on a substrate, wherein the mixture includes a carrier medium and the photo-luminescent material and the amorphous hermetic material are suspended in the carrier medium;
• heating to remove the carrier medium;
• and
• firing to form an amorphous hermetic layer from the amorphous hermetic material, wherein the photo-luminescent material is embedded in the amorphous hermetic layer.

A linear lamp comprising:

• an elongate housing;
• a plurality of solid-state light emitters housed within the housing and configured along the length of the housing;
• and
• an elongate wavelength conversion component remote to the plurality of solid-state light emitters and configured to in part at least define a light mixing chamber,
• wherein the elongate wavelength conversion component comprises an amorphous hermetic layer and a photo-luminescent material embedded within the amorphous hermetic layer.

A downlight comprising:

• a body comprising one or more solid-state light emitters, wherein the body is configured to be positioned within a downlighting fixture such that the downlight emits light in a downward direction;
• and
• a wavelength conversion component remote to the one or more solid-state light emitters and configured to in part at least define a light mixing chamber,
• wherein the wavelength conversion component comprises an amorphous hermetic layer and a photo-luminescent material embedded within the amorphous hermetic layer.

A light bulb comprising:

• a connector base configured to be inserted in a socket to form an electrical connection for the light bulb;
• a body comprising one or more solid-state light emitters;
• a wavelength conversion component having a three dimensional shape that is configured to enclose the one or more solid-state light emitters and to in part at least define a light mixing chamber,
• wherein the wavelength conversion component comprises an amorphous hermetic layer and a photo-luminescent material embedded within the amorphous hermetic layer.
