Abstract
A lighting module () is disclosed, comprising an elongated member () having an inner surface () at least in part delimiting a light-guiding region () within the elongated member, wherein the elongated member has a first end () a second end () and is configured to permit passage of fluid through the light-guiding region () and into and out of the first end and the second end, respectively. Light can be out-coupled from the light-guiding region () via at least one of the first end () and the second end (). The elongated member () includes a carrier which is at least in part flexible and has a first side () and a second side () opposite to the first side (). At least one light-emitting element () is coupled to the first side () of the carrier on a first portion () of the carrier. The carrier is arranged such that the second side () of the first portion () of the carrier at least partially faces the second side () of a second portion () of the carrier, such that the first side () of the first portion () of the carrier at least in part constitutes the inner surface () of the elongated member (). By way of such arrangement of the carrier, the at least one light-emitting element () can be arranged within the elongated member (), and may hence emit light into the light-guiding region (). A lighting device () comprising the lighting module () is also disclosed.
