Compared to conventional lasers, it has advantages such as low power consumption, semi-permanent lifespan, fast response speed, safety, and environmental friendliness. Such light emitting diodes are used in a variety of display devices and various lighting applications such as indoor and outdoor lighting. Recently, lamps that use light-emitting elements have been proposed as vehicle light sources. Compared to incandescent lamps, light-emitting elements have the advantage of consuming less power. The light-emitting element is small in size, which allows for greater freedom in lamp design, and It is also economical due to its permanent lifespan. This type of vehicle lighting device uses a surface light source. This creates a three-dimensional effect and a unique aesthetic look for vehicle lamps.

The first light R1 can be incident on the phosphor layer 240. 240 is a wavelength conversion means, for example, a phosphor, which converts the first light R1 into the second light R2. Here, since the concentration of the phosphor contained in the phosphor layer 240 is low, the phosphor layer 240 can emit a part of the first light R1 that has not been optically converted. This may be less than 3% of the total light. The phosphor layer 24 can emit a second color light in the wavelength range of 10 nm. 0 can act as a diffuser in the process of converting the first light R1 into the second light R2. The first light R1 and the second light R2 emitted from the phosphor layer 240 are incident on the front lens 300. At this time, since the front lens 300 is formed in red, the first light R1 is incident on the front The first light R1 is absorbed by the lens 300 and disappears. Since only the second light R2 exists, the light emitted from the exit surface of the front lens 300 is It is possible to emit third light R3 of a third color in the wavelength range of 620 nm to 630 nm.
