  • Publication number: 20060097625
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a low voltage electron excited white lighting device, which comprises a low voltage exciting source and at least two fluorescent substances exhibiting yellow and blue luminous colors after excited by the low voltage exciting source. The host lattice of at least two fluorescent substances is composed of alkaline earth metal and aluminium oxide, and the host lattice is further doped with activator. Furthermore, the fluorescent substance(s) exhibiting yellow luminous color is (Y3-xCex)Al5O12 (0.0001×0.5), and the one(s) exhibiting blue luminous color is (Ba1-xEux)MgAl10O17 (0.0001×0.5). By mixing generated yellow and blue lights, white light is then obtained. Besides, (Y3-xCex)Al5O12 (0.0001×0.5) further absorbs a part of the blue ray emitted from (Ba1-xEux)MgAl10O17 (0.0001×0.5), to thereby emit yellow ray, such that more stronger white light can be obtained. This invention has advantages of forming saturated colors, high reliability, etc.

  • Publication number: 20050275333
    Abstract: The present invention describes an apparatus and method for manufacturing a white light-emitting diode (LED) using a powder with characteristics of fluorescence to achieve a high-luminosity white LED. The LED emitting ultraviolet light is used as an excitation source, which excites a first powder with blue-green light, and a second powder with orange light. After that, a white light is produced by blending blue-green and orange light with the principle of complementary colors. For achieving the high-luminosity white LED, the invention adopts a suitable LED to be the excitation source with a suitable blending proportion. On the other hand, the implementation of the fluorescent powder with blue-green light can be modulated using a metal ion in the host lattice to change the ligard field of the crystal.

  • Publication number: 20050205874
    Abstract: A white light-emitting device comprising a blue-violet or blue LED and a phosphor material capable of emitting a yellow-green to orange-yellow light upon excitation by the light emitted by the LED. The light from the LED and the phosphor material are mixed in an appropriate ratio to produce a white light. The phosphor material has a general formula (YxMyCez)Al5O12, where x+y=3, x, y?0, 0.5>z>0, and M is selected from the group consisting of Tb, Lu, and Yb, with (YxMy)Al5O12 serving as a host and Ce as an activator. By changing the composition of the metal elements in the host, the crystal field is modulated to thereby alter the energy level of the excited state to which the activator is transferred upon irradiation by a specific wavelength of light, leading to the change in the emitting wavelength of the phosphor material.
