ABSTRACT
We report novel white light-emitting diode (WLED) devices that improve emission color uniformity. The WLEDs consist of a violet chip and a mixed-phosphor layer of three phosphors previously developed by us. It is found that each phosphor does not reabsorb the luminescence from the other phosphors; consequently, the emission color of the WLEDs does not get affected by the mounted quantity of phosphors and/or the variation in chip emission wavelength. Furthermore, an encapsulated WLED with a hemispherical dome-shaped mixed-phosphor layer enables an area to be irradiated with uniform color, producing an excellent color rendering index and improved luminous flux because of the reduced inelastic scattering loss in the phosphor layer.
