GaN계 청색 여기용 광원으로 최적인 $Y_{3}AI_{5}O_{12}:Ce$계 phosphor를 고상반응으로 제조하여 white LED용 yellow 형광체로 신뢰성을 검토하였다. 출발시료는 metal hydrous oxide로 합성한 분말에 활성제로서 $Ce^{3+}$ 이온의 농도를 변화시키면서 로내의 온도와 시간을 변수로 하여 형광체를 제조하였다. 그 결과 $1650^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 소성시킨 분말의 경우, 입자 크기가 $3{\mu}m$이하인 순수 YAG 형광체를 얻을 수 있었으며 $Ce^{3+}$이온농도를 변화시킨 결과 0.03~0.05mol% 일 때가 가장 우수하여 해외제품수준을 능가하는 우수한 발광특성을 나타내었다. 이때 CIE1931 색좌표 값은 x=0.385, y=0.433으로서 green yellow 색을 나타내었다.

Various yellow-emitting $Y_3Al_5O_{12}:Ce^{3+}$ (YAG:Ce) nanocrystalline phosphors, where some $Al^{3+}$ sites are substituted with $Ga^{3+}$ or some Y sites with Gd3+, have been synthesized. The rare earth ions such as $Pr^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ were also co-doped into YAG:Ce system, leading to the tunability of CIE coordinates of emission.

In this study, we synthesized two $Y_3Al_5O_{12}:Ce^{3+}$ phosphors ($7{\mu}m$-sized and $2{\mu}m$-sized YAG) with different sizes by controlling particles sizes of starting materials of the phosphors for white LED. In the smaller one ($2{\mu}m$-sized YAG), its photoluminescence intensity in the reflective mode was 63 % that of the bigger one ($7{\mu}m$-sized YAG); the quantum efficiencies were 93 % and 70 % for the smaller and the bigger ones. Two kinds of white LED packages with the same color coordinates were fabricated with a blue package (chip size $53{\times}30$) and two phosphors. The luminous flux of the white LED package with the smaller YAG phosphor was 92 % of that with the bigger one, indicating that the quantum efficiency of phosphor dispersed inside LED package was higher than that of the pure powder. It was consistently confirmed by the optical simulation (LightTools 6.3). It is notable according to the optical simulation that the white LED with the smaller phosphor showed 24 % higher luminous efficiency. If the smaller one had the same quantum efficiency as the bigger one (~93 %). Therefore, it can be suggested that the higher luminous efficiency of white LED can be possible by reducing the particle size of the phosphor along with maintaining its similar quantum efficiency.

The applicability of the white LED from the blue LED of the coating film as a binder for surface and curved coatings were confirmed. The particle size of YAG is D₅₀: 9~10 ㎛, and the crystal structure is garnet (Y₃Al₅O₁₂), cubic. The coating film had no cracks, at the same time, the silica sol was uniformly coated with YAG phosphor, and the YAG content and thickness in the coating film showed a tendency to increase up to 40 ㎛ in proportion to the increase in the amount added. Furthermore, as the YAG content increased, the PL emission intensity increased and the color coordinate shift toward the end of the chromatic locus curve was confirmed.

Trivalent cerium$(Ce^{3+})$ activated YAG (yttrium aluminum garnet, $Y_3Al_5O_{12})$) thin films phosphor were deposited on quartz glass substrates by rf magnetron sputtering. The effects of sputtering parameters, annealing atmosphere, and substrates on growing behaviors and luminescent properties were investigated. The sputtering parameters were $O_2/(Ar+O_2)$ gas ratio, rf power, and deposition time. XRD (X-ray diffractometery) spectra exhibited that as-deposited films were amorphous, while they were transformed to the crystalline phases by post-annealing. The crystallinity and the atomic ratio strongly depended on the sputtering gas ratio $O_2/(Ar+O_2)$. High quality YAG:Ce thin films could be obtained at the gas ratio of $50\%$ oxygen. After annealing process, PL (Photoluminescence) spectra excited at 450nm showed a yellow single band at 550nm. The films deposited at the sputtering gas ratio of 50% oxygen exhibited the highest PL intensity.

Yellow-emitting $Y_3Al_5O_{12}$:Ce nanocrystalline phosphor and orange-emitting CdS:Mn/ZnS core/shell quantum dots were prepared by a modified polyol and a reverse micelle chemistry, respectively. To compensate a poor color rendering index of YAG:Ce nanocrystalline phosphor due to the lack of red spectral component, CdS:Mn/ZnS quantum dots were blended into YAG:Ce. Based on spectral evolutions in the blended systems, hybrid white light emitting diodes are fabricated and characterized.

The luminescence of bismuth and cerium doped yttrium aluminum based Phosphors $Y_{3}$/Al$_{5}$/O$_{12}$ and (Y$_{0.8}$/Gd$_{0.2}$)$_3$Al$_{5}$/O$_{12}$ prepared by a solid-state reaction method were studied. These samples which were fired at 1, 20$0^{\circ}C$ show the characteristic X-ray diffraction patters for the main phase(420) of YAG. This study indicates that the both flux and remained bismuth after the firing phosphor materials give rise to affect the photoluminescence properties. Therefore, it was investigated that both the XRD patterns arid the PL properties were affected by the controlling experimental process variables.riables.les.

Influence of hexamethyldisilazane(HMDS) in post processing technique by using n-butanol azeotropic distillation on the luminescence properties of YAG:Ce nanophosphor were studied. The organic solvent(n-butanol) azeotropic distillation which prevent powders from conglobation since lager molecules decrease the surface tension and more complete replace the residual water in the precipitate. HMDS that had larger molecules than that of n-butanol was added in azeotropic distillation. The phosphor synthesized from n-butanol azeotropic distillation exhibited lower agglomerate and better photoluminescence properties than that from HMDS added heterogeneous azeotropic distillation.

Due to optimal advances such as chromatic performance, durability, low power consumption, high efficiency, long-lifetime, and excellent environmental friendliness, white LEDs (WLEDs) are widely used in vehicle front lighting, backlighting, decorative lighting, street lighting, and even general lighting. In this paper, the remote packaging WLEDs (RP-WLEDs) with bi-layer red-emitting $Sr_2Si_5N_8:Eu^{2+}$ and yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor was proposed and investigated. The simulation results based on the MATLAB software and the commercial software Light Tools indicated that the color rendering index (CRI) of bi-layer phosphor RP-WLEDs had a significant increase. The CRI had a considerable increase from 72 to 94. In conclusion, the results showed that bi-layer red-emitting $Sr_2Si_5N_8:Eu^{2+}$ and yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor could be a prospective approach for manufacturing RP-WLEDs with enhanced optical properties.
