Abstract
By adding red-emitting α-SrO·3B2O3:Sm2+ phosphor and SiO2 co-doping particles to yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor compound, a novel method for improving lighting performance of white LEDs with remote phosphor structure, which have an average correlated color temperature (CCT) of 5600–8500 K, is proposed and demonstrated. By varying α-SrO·3B2O3:Sm2+ concentration from 2 to 30% and maintaining 5% SiO2, the obtained results indicated that color rendering index (CRI), color quality scale (CQS), and luminous flux can be increased significantly. Moreover, the Mie-scattering theory is employed to verify the scattering properties, which have an effect on the enhancement of color quality and luminous flux. The results prove a prospective practical solution for manufacturing remote phosphor white LED (RP-WLED) having higher color quality and luminous flux.
