LIGHTING DEVICE
First Claim
1. A lighting device comprising:
- at least one solid state light emitter; and
at least one luminescent element, said luminescent element comprising at least one luminescent material, said luminescent element being spaced from said solid state light emitter, said solid state light emitter having an illumination surface, said luminescent element having a luminescent element surface, said luminescent element surface being at least twice as large as said illumination surface.

Abstract
A lighting device comprising at least one solid state light emitter and at least one luminescent element spaced from the light emitter, a surface of the luminescent element being at least twice as large as the illumination surface of the light emitter. Also, a lighting device comprising at least one solid state light emitter and at least one luminescent element spaced from the light emitter, a surface of the luminescent element surface being at least twice as large as and substantially parallel to the illumination surface of the light emitter. Also, a lighting device comprising at least one solid state light emitter and at least one luminescent element spaced from the light emitter, a surface area of a projection of the luminescent element being at least twice as large as a surface area of a projection of the light emitter.

39. A lighting device comprising:
-
at least one solid state light emitter; and
at least one luminescent element, said luminescent element comprising at least one luminescent material, said luminescent element being spaced from said solid state light emitter, a surface area of a projection of said luminescent element in the form of a first flat shape being at least twice as large as a surface area of a projection of said solid state light emitter in the form of a second flat shape, said solid state light emitter having a largest second flat shape of every solid state light emitter in said lighting device, said first flat shape being defined by a set of luminescent element points, each said luminescent element point being located in an x-y plane oriented relative to said z axis and having x, y coordinates which correspond, for each radial position relative to said z axis, to x, y coordinates of a point on said luminescent element which is the farthest from said z axis at such radial location, said second flat shape being defined by a set of light emitter points, each said light emitter point being located in an x-y plane oriented relative to a z axis which passes through a center of said solid state light emitter and a center of said luminescent element and having x, y coordinates which correspond, for each radial position relative to said z axis, to x, y coordinates of a point on said solid state light emitter which is the farthest from said z axis at such radial location. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55)
