Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a lighting device including an excitation light source and a light emitting unit that emits fluorescence according to the excitation light emitted from the excitation light source, and particularly relates to a vehicle headlight. Background technique
[0002] At present, white LED (Light Emitting Diode; Light Emitting Diode) vehicle headlights, which are composed of blue light emitting diodes and phosphors, are beginning to be put into practical use. Compared with current light sources such as halogen lamps and HID (High Intensity Discharge) lamps, by using light-emitting diodes, a significantly longer life can be achieved. Moreover, it is expected to achieve lower power consumption than HID lamps in the long run.
[0003] Patent Document 1 discloses an example of such a headlight. The vehicle headlight described in Patent Document 1 includes a plurality of LED chips capable of emitting light of different colors. Mor...
