Laser headlamps and projectors have pushed the frontiers of high-end illumination over the past decade. Initially, white light was created by using laser diodes and Cerium Yttrium Aluminum Garnet fluorescent ceramics. As laser power rises, the heat increases and deteriorates the quantum conversion efficiency of the fluorescent material—it’s called thermal quenching, and it reduces light…
