ROTATIONALLY STATIC LIGHT EMITTING MATERIAL WITH ROTATING OPTICS
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a heatsink;
at least one light emitting material located on the heatsink, at least a portion of the at least one light emitting material being circularly symmetrical around an axis, the heatsink and the at least one light emitting material being rotationally fixed;
optics configured to rotate relative to the at least one light emitting material around a rotational axis that is coaxial with the axis of the at least one light emitting material, the optics configured to;
receive excitation light along the rotational axis;
convey the excitation light to one or more locations on the light emitting material as the optics are rotating;
collect light emitted from the one or more locations on the light emitting material excited by the excitation light; and
,convey the light collected from the at least one light emitting material to the rotational axis for emission there along.

Abstract
A system including rotationally static light emitting material with rotating optics is provided. The system comprises: a heatsink; at least one light emitting material on the heatsink, at least a portion of the light emitting material being circularly symmetrical around an axis, the heatsink and the light emitting material being rotationally fixed;
optics configured to rotate relative to the at light emitting material around a rotational axis that is coaxial with the axis of the light emitting material, the optics configured to: receive excitation light along the rotational axis; convey the excitation light to one or more locations on the light emitting material as the optics are rotating; collect light emitted from the one or more locations on the light emitting material excited by the excitation light; and, convey the light collected from the at least one light emitting material to the rotational axis for emission there along.
