In thus study, Turmeric phosphor dye was extracted from Curcuma Longa L. via a simple technique using silica gel. The phosphor was used for light down-conversion of UV light for the manufacture white light emitting diode (WLED). The UV-LED was analyzed over 395nm wavelengths. The characteristics of the white light chromaticity were controlled by tuning the current and phosphor concentration. An optimum color rendering index (CRI) value of 63.4 was obtained. The chromaticity coordinates (CIE) and correlated color temperature (CCT) were measured for various currents and phosphor concentrations. The white phosphor exhibited CIE value of 0.355,0.338 and CCT of 4567 K. The concentration of phosphor and amount of applied current were confirmed to be major factors that control the intensity of white light emitted from the sample, where CIE and CRI of the emitted light steadily increased with the concentration of phosphor and current. Thus, phosphor concentration has a critical effect on conversion efficiency. Key words: Turmeric, phosphor, WLED, curcumin

AbstractIn this research, we have developed an approach by incorporating quantum dots (QDs) with red emission into mesoporous silica microspheres through a non-chemical process and obtained luminescent microspheres (LMS). Owing to the lattice structure of LMS, QDs were effectively protected from intrinsic aggregation in matrix and surface deterioration by encapsulant, oxygen and moisture. The LMS composite has therefore maintained large extent luminescent properties of QDs, espe-cially for the high quantum efficiency. Moreover, the fabricated white light emitting diode (WLED) utilizing LMS and YAG:Ce yellow phosphor has demonstrated excellent light performance with color coordinates around (x = 0.33, y = 0.33), correlated color temperature between 5100 and 5500 K and color rendering index of Ra = 90, R9 = 95. The luminous efficiency of the WLED has reached up to a new record of 142.5 lm/W at 20 mA. LMS provide a promising way to practically apply QDs in lightings and displays with high efficiency as well as high stability.

In this study, the chromaticity properties of curcuminoids nanofibers were studied. Recent studies revealed that the nature of emitted light from curcuminoids and the poor stability which limits their illumination applications can be further improved using nanofibers and nanoparticles of curcuminoids. Motivated by this idea, we prepared some Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) integrated curcuminoids nanofibers via electrospinning. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were used in three types of concentration (5,10 and15wt%) which were mixed with (curcuma longa L.) powder to produce curcuminoids solution by using the centrifuge to separate the curcuminoids solution from the impurities. Different amounts of polymer solution mixed with curcuminoids (1 to 5ml) were spun by electrospinning to study its properties. The effect of annealing on samples was studied. The chromatic study of the samples and the effect of the amount and concentration of the solution were studied by pumping the samples in three different light emitting diode (LED) wavelengths (365, 390 and 445nm). The white light chromaticity coordinates (CIE), correlated color temperature (CCT) and color rendering index (CRI) were measured. The optimum CIE, CRI and CCT values of (X= 0.3051; Y= 0.3370), 64 and 6809K, respectively were obtained. By using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) device, the curcuminoids nanofibers diameter was measured, where the values obtained ranged between 191 to 234nm. After the annealing process, curcuminoids nanoparticles average diameter 13-19 nm were obtained.

AbstractA three-layered phosphor structure was designed and prepared by the spin coating of BaSi2N2O2:Eu (cyan-emitting) and (Sr,Ca)AlSiN3:Eu (red-emitting) phosphor films on the yellow-emitting Y3Al5O12:Ce (YAG:Ce) phosphor ceramic synthesized by the solid-state reaction under vacuum sintering. In order to achieve high color rendering lighting, the influence of the composition and structure of the three-layered phosphors on the optical, thermal, and electrical properties of the chip-on-board (COB) packaged white-light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) was studied systematically. The WLED with the structure of “red+cyan+yellow” (R+C+Y) three-layered phosphor generated neutral white light and had a luminous efficacy of 75 lm/W, the fidelity index (Rf) of 93, the gamut index (Rg) of 97, and the correlated color temperature (CCT) of 3852 K. Under the excitation of laser diode (LD), the layer-structured phosphor yielded the white light with a luminous efficacy of 120 lm/W, color rendering index (CRI) of 90, and CCT of 5988 K. The result indicates that the three-layered phosphor structure is a promising candidate to achieve high color rendering and high luminous efficacy lighting.
