Vehicular lamp
First Claim
1. A vehicular lamp that irradiates umber light, comprising:
- a light emitting diode emitting blue light;
a long-wavelength phosphor emitting light, of which a peak wavelength is substantially equal to or longer than a wavelength of the umber light according to the blue light emitting from said light emitting diode; and
an optical filter operable to block almost all light emitting from said light emitting diode and also to transmit almost all light, which has a wavelength similar to the peak wavelength, among light emitting from said long-wavelength phosphor to generate the umber light based on the light emitting from said light emitting diode and said long-wavelength phosphor.

Abstract
A vehicular lamp that irradiates umber light includes: a light emitting diode operable to emit blue light; a long-wavelength phosphor operable to emit light of which a peak wavelength is substantially equal to or longer than a wavelength of the umber light based on the blue light emitting from the light emitting diode; and an optical filter operable to block the bulk of light emitting from the light emitting diode and also to transmit the bulk of light, which has a wavelength similar to the peak wavelength, among light emitting from the long-wavelength phosphor to generate the umber light depending to light emitting from the light emitting diode and the long-wavelength phosphor.

2. A vehicular lamp that irradiates umber light, comprising:
-
a light emitting diode;
a long-wavelength phosphor emitting light, of which a peak wavelength is substantially equal to or longer than a wavelength of the umber light according to light emitting from said light emitting diode; and
an optical filter operable to block light having shorter wavelength than a transmission limit and transmit light having longer wavelength than the transmission limit, wherein the transmission limit in said optical filter is located between a peak wavelength of light emitting from said light emitting diode and the peak wavelength of light emitting from said long-wavelength phosphor, and is located at longer wavelength side than that of a position of which light intensity is the lowest among light of continuous spectrum emitted from said light emitting diode and said long-wavelength phosphor and also located at shorter wavelength side than that of the peak of light emitting from said long-wavelength phosphor. - View Dependent Claims (3, 5, 7)
