A core size conversion unit matches pump spot size to the amplifier cladding, cutting combiner loss and improving multicore fiber amplification efficiency.
Beveled crystal vertices or edges create escape paths for trapped luminescent rays, boosting exit beam luminance and power.
Internal-reflection waveguides replicate the exit pupil in two dimensions, enlarging HUD eye-box and field of view in a compact layout.
Temperature-triggered dopants let one FDM material create reflective, transparent, or colored regions without multi-material printing.
A lower-refractive-index film helps retain re-emitted photons in a transparent waveguide while supporting arbitrary-surface integration.
Segmented light guides house down-conversion material in remote cavities, reducing thermal degradation while maintaining high light conversion efficiency.
A backlight unit positions quantum dot phosphor remotely from the light source to minimize heat-induced degradation.
Conversion structure decouples thermal and optical paths, enabling high lumen flux from compact LED volumes without heat-induced efficiency loss.
Submicron structures on the photoluminescent layer direct light output, eliminating bulky external optical elements.
