Abstract
A solid-state automotive vehicle headlamp includes a solid-state light source (SSLS), a clamshell reflector, and a reflector optic. The clamshell reflector includes a reflective surface defining a clamshell cavity with an open end facing a field to be illuminated. The reflector optic is defined by a portion of a spherical surface in surrounding relation to the SSLC. The reflector optic defines a light-transmissive window permitting a direct line-of-sight transmission of light generated by the SSLC to the reflective surface of the clamshell reflector. The reflector optic further includes a reflective region at least partially surrounding the light-transmissive window and configured to reflect light generated by the SSLC and directed at the reflector optic back towards the SSLC. The reflector optic redirects some of the light emitted by the SSLC through the light-transmissive window towards the clamshell reflector to create a more controlled beam pattern and increase the overall light output.
