Abstract

A lighting device and a method for producing a lighting device are disclosed. In an embodiment, the lighting device includes a carrier, at least one optoelectronic illuminant arranged on the carrier, the illuminant configured to emit light into an emission area and a color scattering layer located in the emission area, the color scattering layer configured to generate a color by scattering of light at a surface of the color scattering layer facing away from the illuminant.

Claims (21)

1. A lighting device comprising:

a carrier;

at least one optoelectronic illuminant arranged on the carrier, the illuminant configured to emit light into an emission area;

a further electronic component arranged on the carrier, wherein the further electronic component is a protective diode or a temperature sensor; and

a color scattering layer located in the emission area, the color scattering layer configured to generate a color by scattering of light at a surface of the color scattering layer facing away from the illuminant,

wherein the illuminant comprises a sprayed-on conversion layer, on which the color scattering layer is directly sprayed, and

wherein the color scattering layer is directly sprayed onto the further electronic component and

onto an area of the carrier that is situated between the illuminant and the further electronic component.

2. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the color scattering layer is arranged in the emission area by a holding unit, and wherein the holding unit is formed separately from the illuminant and holds the color scattering layer.

3. The lighting device according to claim 2 , wherein the holding unit comprises a frame that receives the color scattering layer and is fixed on the carrier.

4. The lighting device according to claim 2 , wherein the color scattering layer comprises a glass layer coated with a color scattering medium and/or a ceramic layer, or wherein the color scattering layer is formed from a glass layer and/or a ceramic layer, respectively.

5. A method for producing a lighting device, the method comprising:

arranging an optoelectronic illuminant for emitting light into an emission area on a carrier;

arranging a further electronic component on the carrier, wherein the further electronic component is a protective diode or a temperature sensor;

spraying a conversion layer onto the illuminant; and

forming a color scattering layer for generating a color by a scattering of light at a surface of the color scattering layer facing away from the illuminant into the emission area,

wherein forming the color scattering layer comprises directly spraying the color scattering layer onto the further electronic component and onto an area of the carrier situated between the illuminant and the further electronic component, and

onto the conversion layer.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein forming the color scattering layer comprises arranging the color scattering layer in the emission area by a holding unit, and wherein the holding unit is formed separately from the illuminant and holds the color scattering layer.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the holding unit comprises a frame that receives the color scattering layer and is fixed on the carrier.

8. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the color scattering layer comprises at least one of a glass layer or ceramic layer coated with at least one of a color scattering medium or a ceramic coating layer.
