Abstract

To improve the phosphor thermal properties of phosphor-converted white light emitting diodes, the Y3Al5O12:Ce 3+ phosphor was coated with SiO2. The photoluminescence properties of the SiO2-coated Y3Al5O 12:Ce3+ phosphor showed excellent thermal properties at 460 nm. The temperature dependence of photoluminescence was measured from 20 to 180 °C. The SiO2-coated phosphor showed improved thermal quenching properties compared to pristine phosphors. We concluded that the SiO2-coated phosphor limits the thermal quenching properties. This result suggests that the SiO2-coated YAG:Ce3+ phosphor could be considered as a good candidate for white light-emitting diode applications.
