Patent attributes
A fluorescent module includes a fluorescent member, a heat dissipation member, and an optical relaxation member. The fluorescent member includes a phosphor-containing layer, and a light reflecting layer. The fluorescent member is secured to the heat dissipation member so that the light reflecting layer is arranged between the phosphor-contacting layer and the heat dissipation member. The optical relaxation member is configured to absorb and/or diffuse light. The optical relaxation member is arranged with respect to the fluorescent member so that the light reflecting layer is arranged between the phosphor-containing layer and the optical relaxation member.
