The behaviors of yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) phosphor powder doped by cerium (YAG:Ce3+) was studied. Here, the YAG:Ce3+ nanopowders have been synthesized using microwave combustion (MW) according to the formula, Y(3-0.04) Al5O12: 0.04Ce3+ to produce white light emitting diode (WLEDs) by conversion from blue indium gallium nitride light emitting diode (InGaN LED, 445 nm) chips; the whole process took only 20 min. Pure YAG phase was obtained after annealing at 1050 °C for 5 h with nonaggregated and spherical particles. Thermogravimetry and derivative thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), photoluminescence (PL), electroluminescence (EL) emissions and standard CIE 1931 chromaticity diagrams have been used to characterize the samples. The highest WLEDs emission was achieved for the annealed YAG:Ce3+, together with proper color rendering index (CRI), and tunable correlated color temperature (CCT). Finally, we conclude that the decreasing EL intensity at increased injection current is caused by the thermal ionization from the 5d1 level to the conduction band.

Background:: Luminescence glass is a potential candidate for developing white light emitting diode (W-LED) due to its good rare earth ion solubility, efficient luminescence, easy fabrication and good mold ability. Pr3+ ion has various visible emission bands from blue to red spectral region, and has attracted considerable attention for potential application to LEDs, ultraviolet laser, and scintillator. The Dy3+ ions can exhibit emission in blue and greenish-yellow (4F9/2→6H15/2, 13/2 transitions of Dy3+) spectral regions under excitation at near UV (ultraviolet). It is possible to obtain white luminescence if Pr3+ ions and Dy3+ ions can be excited simultaneous, due to their multiple luminescence in the visible region. Methods: The Pr, Dy doped ZnSiCa glass samples were prepared by the conventional melting quenching procedure. The XRD, absorption spectra, emission spectra, and ICP-OES measurements were performed to investigate the properties of the materials. Results: The Pr and Dy co-doped ZnSiCa glasses under 443 nm excitation show emission band peaking at about 483 nm, 575 nm and 670 nm / 676 nm. The glass samples exhibit chromaticity coordinates in the white light region in the CIE 1931 diagram, with a Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) at about 7000 K. Conclusion: Pr, Dy codoped ZnSiCa glass samples show chromaticity coordinates in the white light region in the CIE 1931 diagram, with a CCT at about 7000 K. It is suggested that the Pr, Dy codoped ZnSiCa glasses might be considered as promising candidates for white light emitting sources.

All-inorganic lead halide perovskite (CsPbX3) nanocrystals (NCs) have emerged as a highly promising new generation of light emitters due to their extraordinary photophysical properties. However, the performance of these semiconducting NCs is undermined due to the inherent toxicity of lead and long-term environmental stability. Here, we report the addition of B-site cation and X-site anion (pseudo-halide) concurrently using Ba(SCN)2 (≤50%) in CsPbX3 NCs to reduce the lead and improve the photophysical properties and stability. The as-grown particles demonstrated an analogous structure with an almost identical lattice constant and a fluctuation of particle size without altering the morphology of particles. Photoluminescence quantum yield is enhanced up to near unity (~98%) by taking advantage of concomitant doping at the B- and X-site of the structure. Benefitted from the defect reductions and stronger bonding interaction between Pb2+ and SCN− ions, Ba(SCN)2-based NCs exhibit improved stability towards air and moisture compared to the host NCs. The doped NCs retain higher PLQY (as high as seven times) compared to the host NCs) when stored in an ambient atmosphere for more than 176 days. A novel 3D-printed multiplex color conversion layer was used to fabricate a white light-emitting diode (LED). The obtained white light shows a correlated color temperature of 6764 K, a color rendering index of 87, and luminous efficacy of radiation of 333 lm/W. In summary, this work proposes a facile route to treat sensitive lead halide perovskite NCs and to fabricate LEDs by using a low-cost large-scale 3-D printing method, which would serve as a foundation for fabricating high-quality optoelectronic devices for near future lighting technologies.

In this communication, the use of gallium nitride doped with beryllium as an efficient converter for white light emitting diode is proposed. Until now beryllium in this material was mostly studied as a potential p-type dopant. Unfortunately, the realization of p-type conductivity in such a way seems impossible. However, due to a very intensive yellow emission, bulk crystals doped with beryllium can be used as light converters. In this communication, it is demonstrated that realisation of such diode is possible and realisation of a colour rendering index is close to that necessary for white light emission.

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

Sm3+, Ce3+ codoped Al2O3–La2O3–SiO2 glasses were prepared and their luminescence properties were characterized. Blue-cyan to orange-red tunable luminescence was observed from these glasses with different excitation wavelengths ranging from 385 to 410 nm. White light emission with internal luminescence efficiency 42% has been observed using commercially available purple light-emitting-diode excitation. The energy transfer between Ce3+ and Sm3+ has also been investigated from fluorescence decay curves and spectral properties.

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.
