For the reflective fluorescent powder structure, the fluorescent powder material can be directly arranged on the heat dissipation structure, so that high-power laser illumination can be realized; however, in order to lead out the illumination light, the reflection light path and the incident light path are generally designed in an off-axis manner, the coaxiality of the laser and the fluorescence is poor, the light distribution structure is complex, and the research and development cost is high.
