Studying CdS:In green phosphor's impacts on white-light emitting diode with higher luminous flux

Abstract

Abstract A lumen efficiency (LE) simulation model with the Monte Carlo method is introduced to the white-light-emitting diode devices that utilize the red LED (light-emitting diode) dyes instead of red-emitting phosphors (R-WLEDs). By simulating this model, the desirable spectrum-related indices and photometric efficiencies, which are adequate for superior chromatic consistency (or R f > 97), can be accomplished for R-WLEDs under the correlated color temperature (CCT) range of 5000–8000 K. The structure of the R-LED has LEDs in red and blue colors (650 nm and 448 nm) combined with phosphors possessing yellow and green emissions (586 nm and 507 nm). In comparison with pc-WLEDs (WLEDs operating with conversion phosphors) and QD-WLEDs (WLED devices with quantum dots), pc/R-WLED devices could present its outperformance to the others and become a promising way to achieve remarkable chromatic generation, particularly under the condition of small color temperature limit, and act as a substitute for the pc-WLED devices.
