光源(励起光源)10は、第1ナノ粒子202が吸収する一次光10Aを発するものである。一次光10Aは、第1ナノ粒子202の吸収波長と少なくとも一部において重複する発光ピーク波長を有する。このような一次光10Aを発する光源10として、通常は、紫外領域から青色領域までの発光波長を有する光源が使用され、例えば、発光ダイオード(LED)やレーザーダイオード(LD)などを使用することができる。また、有機エレクトロルミネッセンス発光素子や無機エレクトロルミネッセンス発光素子などを使用してもよい。LEDやLDとして、例えば、GaN系LEDやLDを好適に用いることができる。光源10は1個のみを用いてもよく、2個以上を併用してもよい。
透光性部材201は、第1ナノ粒子202が含有・分散される部材であり、換言すれば、第1ナノ粒子202を封止する部材である。透光性部材201の外表面の少なくとも一部は、光源10からの一次光10Aが入射される光入射面20aとなっており、光入射面20aから入射された一次光10Aは、その少なくとも一部が第1ナノ粒子202によって吸収され、これにより第1ナノ粒子202が発光する。発光部20の光出射面20bは、例えば、光入射面20aに対向する面側に設けることができる。
光反射防止構造部203は、外光の反射を防止又は抑制する層(又は部材)である。光反射防止構造部203としては、特に制限されないが、光学薄膜の多層構造からなる反射防止層や、表面に凹凸を有する層(例えば、モスアイ構造を有する層等)などを好適に用いることができる。図1は、光学薄膜の多層構造を用いた例である。光反射防止構造部203は、透光性部材201と同様、透光性であり、好ましくは透明である。
n1 2=n0×n2 (1)
〔n0は反射防止層の外部領域の屈折率である。〕
n1×d1=λ/4 (2)
を満たす場合、波長λ(nm)における反射率が0%となる。式(2)から、反射防止効果は波長依存性があり、反射防止層の膜厚依存性もあることがわかる。
R=〔(n1-n2)2/(n1+n2)2〕×100 (3)
で表わされる。
図2(a)は本実施形態に係る発光装置の一例を模式的に示す断面図であり、図2(b)は図2(a)における領域bを拡大して示す図である。図2に示される発光装置は、透光性部材201が第1ナノ粒子202を含有するだけでなく、さらに光反射防止構造部203が第2ナノ粒子203aを含有すること以外は、上記第1の実施形態と同様である。
図4は、本実施形態に係る発光装置を模式的に示す断面図である。図4に示される発光装置は、光反射防止構造部203に含有される第2ナノ粒子203bとして、紫外光吸収性であって、かつ、紫外光の吸収により可視光を発するナノ粒子を用いること以外は、上記第2の実施形態と同様である。
図5(a)は本実施形態に係る発光装置を模式的に示す断面図であり、図5(b)は図5(a)における領域dを拡大して示す図である。図5に示される発光装置は、上記第1の実施形態に係る発光装置の変形例であり、透光性部材201における光源10に対向する表面を光入射面20aとし、そこに向けて一次光10Aを照射する第1の実施形態とは異なり、光源10と透光性部材201の内部とを導光部材30で接続し、一次光10Aを透光性部材201の内部に伝送することを特徴としている。
図6は、本実施形態に係る発光装置を模式的に示す斜視図である。図6に示される発光装置は、発光部20が円柱形状を有しており、光入射面に対向する平面状の外表面だけでなく、曲面となっている外表面(側面)も光出射面となっていて、該平面状の外表面及び曲面となっている外表面に光反射防止構造部203を配置していること以外は、上記第5の実施形態と同様である。
