Abstract

A semiconductor light source is disclosed. In one embodiment, a semiconductor light source includes at least one semiconductor laser for generating a primary radiation and at least one conversion element for generating a longer-wave visible secondary radiation from the primary radiation, wherein the conversion element for generating the secondary radiation comprises a semiconductor layer sequence having one or more quantum well layers, and wherein, in operation, the primary radiation is irradiated into the semiconductor layer sequence perpendicular to a growth direction thereof, with a tolerance of at most 15°.
