Abstract
The light generating module comprises a housing, a semiconductor light emitting device, a first mounting face, a second mounting face, and a lens. The housing comprises a base and an optical window. The base extends along a predetermined plane and is made from material exhibiting a first thermal conductivity. The semiconductor light emitting device is provided in the housing. The first mounting face is made from material exhibiting a thermal conductivity equal to or more than the first thermal conductivity. The second mounting face mounts the semiconductor light emitting device and is made from material exhibiting a thermal conductivity equal to or more than the first thermal conductivity. The lens is provided in the housing. The lens has an installation face mounted on the first mounting face. The lens is used to direct light from the semiconductor light emitting device toward the optical window.
