[0034] As described in the background art, when adjusting the white light spectrum of a white light chip, there are problems such as large amount of quantum dots used and high cost. This will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] In traditional white light chips, when less blue light output is needed, the thickness of quantum dot layers of other colors is increased to improve the conversion rate of other colors. This method of adjusting the color gamut requires a large amount of quantum dot layers and increases costs.

[0036] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a white light chip. Figure 1A white light chip according to an embodiment of the utility model comprises:

In the technical solution of the utility model, a white light chip is formed based on the structure of the reflector layer arranged on the second surface of the glass substrate, and the reflector layer includes a plurality of light-transmitting holes. Since the light-transmitting holes are arranged, the color gamut of the white light emitted by the light-emitting surface can be changed, and the color gamut of the white light emitted by the white light chip is also different due to different duty ratios of the light-transmitting holes, so the color gamut of the white light chip can be adjusted by changing the duty ratio of the light-transmitting holes arranged in the reflector layer.
