Abstract
A light emitting device includes: at least one light emitting component (LEC) comprising a light-emitting face having a longest linear dimension D; at least one wavelength-converting consolidated monolithic component (WCC) having a light-receiving face, a light-emitting face, and a peripheral edge. The WCC is radiationally linked to and spaced apart from the LEC at a distance D, Dbeing less than D, wherein a projection edge of the light-emitting face of the LEC and the peripheral edge of the WCC define a shortest distance Dtherebetween, wherein a surface area of the light-receiving face of the WCC is at least 120% of that of the light-emitting face of the LEC, and the LEC and WCC are positioned relative to each other to satisfy D/D≧1.
