In this work, we propose micro-prism patterned remote phosphor (RP) films to enhance both luminous efficiency and color uniformity (CU) of remote phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (rpc-LEDs) simultaneously. On the incident surface of the RP film, one micro-prism film is used to extract backward light by double reflection. On the exit surface, the other micro-prism film is adopted to retain blue light inside the RP film, thus enhancing the phosphor excitation. Experimental results show that double prism-patterned RP (DP-RP) film configuration shows a luminous flux of 55.16 lm, which is 45.1% higher than that of RP film configuration at 300 mA. As regards the CU, the DP-RP film configuration reduces the angular CIE-x and CIE-y standard variations by 68% and 69.32%, respectively, compared with the pristine device. Moreover, the DP-RP film configuration shows excellent color stability under varying driving currents. Since micro-prism films can be easily fabricated by a roll-to-roll process, the micro-prism patterned RP film can be an alternative to a conventional RP layer to enable the practical application of rpc-LEDs.

This article is the analysis of SiO2 nano-particles’ influences on the luminous efficiency and the color temperature uniformity of a remote phosphor structure in a WLED. The purpose of integrating SiO2 into the silicone layer in the remote phosphor structure is to significantly promote the scattering occurrences. Particularly, with an appropriate proportion of SiO2, there could be more blue lights generated at large angles, leading to reducing the angular-dependent color temperature deviation. The luminous flux also can get benefits from SiO2 addition owing to a proper air-phosphor layer refractive index ratio provided by this SiO2/silicone compound. The attained experimental results were compared with optical values of a non-SiO2 remote phosphor configuration and showed a notable enhancement. The color deviation was reduced by approximately 600 K in the angles from -700 ­to 700. Additionally, the lumen efficiency was improved by 2.25% at 120 mA driving current. Hence, SiO2 can be used to boost both color uniformity and luminous efficacy for remote-phosphor WLED.

Abstract In this research we have studied the lighting enhancement method by analyzing chromatic performance and luminous flux of light emitting diodes that produce white light. In order to achieve expected results, it is necessary to mix Eu2+-activated strontium-barium silicate (SrBaSiO4:Eu2+) with its phosphor compounding, which has been demonstrated to have considerable influence on lighting performance. The results showed that with the gradually increasing concentration of yellow-green-emitting SrBaSiO4:Eu2+ phosphor in LEDs devices, at 8500 K, the color homogeneity and the lighting output received a great improvement. The color quality scale, on the other hand, responded negatively to the increase in SrBaSiO4:Eu2+. The impact of SrBaSiO4:Eu2+ on optical properties of WLEDs was confirmed. The final step to optimize SrBaSiO4:Eu2+ usage in lighting development is to figure out a suitable amount of particles and optimize their size.

AbstractThis paper investigates a method for improving the lighting performance of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), packaged using two separating remote phosphor layers, yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor layer and red-emitting α-SrO·3B2O3:Sm2+ phosphor layer. The thicknesses of these two layers are 800 μm and 200 μm, respectively. Both of them have been examined at average correlated color temperatures (CCT) of 7700 K and 8500 K. For this two-layer model, the concentration of red phosphor has been varied from 2 % to 30 % in the upper layer, while in the lower layer the yellow phosphor concentration was kept at 15 %. It was found interesting that the lighting properties, such as color rendering index (CRI) and luminous flux, are enhanced significantly, while the color uniformity is maintained at a level relatively close to the level in one-layer configuration (measured at the same correlated color temperature). Besides, the transmitted and reflected light of each phosphor layer have been revised by combining Kubelka-Munk and Mie-Lorenz theories. Through the analysis, it is demonstrated that the packaging configuration of two-layered remote phosphor that contains red-emitting α-SrO·3B2O3:Sm2+ phosphor particles provides a practical solution to general WLEDs lighting.
