A stochastic method is used to optimize white all-semiconductor lamps composed of tree, four, and five primary light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with Gaussian spectra and realistic line widths typical of AlGalnP and AlGalnP LEDs. Within an optimal set of central wavelengths and relative powers, a trade-off between luminous efficacy and the general color rendering index can be performed. The quadrichromatic all-semiconductor lamp is shown to meet most needs of deluxe general lighting. However, practical implementation of this lamp requires substantial improvement of LEDs in the yellow-green region (~570 nm).

In this study, the effect of quantum dot (QD) addition and photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) of QDs on the luminous efficacy and color rendering index (CRI) of white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) has been investigated.

High color rendering index performance has been required for phosphor-converted warm-white light-emitting diodes (PC-WWLEDs) in lighting industry. The characteristics of low-temperature fabricated phosphor (yellow: Ce3+:YAG, green: Tb3+:YAG, and red: CaAlClSiN3:Eu2+) doped glass were presented for applications to high color rendering index warm-white-light-emitting diodes. Color coordinates (x, y) = (0.36, 0.29), quantum yield (QY) = 55.6%, color rending index (CRI) = 85.3, and correlated color temperature (CCT) = 3923 K were characterized. Glass-based PC-WWLEDs was found able to maintain good thermal stability for long-time high-temperature operation. QY decay, CRI remenance, and chromaticity shift were also analyzed for glass- and silicone-based high-power PC-WLEDs by thermal aging at 150°C and 250°C for industrial test standard’s aging time 1008 hours. Better than the silicone’s, thermal stability of glass-based PC-WLEDs has been improved. The resulted high color rendering index (CRI) glass phosphor potentially can be used as a phosphor layer for high-performance and low-cost PC-WLEDs used in next-generation indoor solid-state lighting applications.
