In this work, a phosphor converter with small thickness and low concentration, based on a micro-angle tunable tilted filter (ATFPC), was proposed for hybrid-type laser lighting devices to solve the problem of silicone phosphor converters’ carbonizing under high-energy density. Taking advantage of the filter and the scattering characteristics of microphosphors, two luminous areas are generated on the converter. Compared with conventional phosphor converters (CPCs), the lighting effects of ATFPCs are adjustable using tilt angles. When the tilt angle of the micro filter is 20°, the luminous flux of the ATPFCs is increased by 11.5% at the same concentration; the maximum temperature (MT) of ATFPCs is reduced by 22.8% under the same luminous flux and the same correlated color temperature (CCT) 6500 K. This new type of lighting device provides an alternative way to improve the luminous flux and heat dissipation of laser lighting.
