In this paper, the characteristics of a carbon nanotube composite heat sink proposed to replace the advanced Al heat sinks for LED lighting devices were studied. Proposed CMP-PLA heat sink was made by mixing 20~70 wt% carbon nanotube, 20~70 wt% bio-degradable polymer of melt-blended PLA (poly lactic acid) and PBS (poly butylene succinate) and PLA nucleating agents composed of the mixture of soybean oil and biotites, at $150{\sim}220^{\circ}C$ with 1,000~1,500 rpm. Optical and electric characteristics of 7.5 W LED lighting devices using heat sinks with such prepared CMP-PLA were investigated. And, the properties of the heat, which was not released from the CMP-PLA type heat sinks, was also investigated. The color temperature of LED lighting devices using the CMP-PLA heat sinks was 5,956 K, which is x= 0.32 and y= 0.34 in the XY chromaticity, and the color rendering index was 75. The luminous flux and the luminous efficiency of LED lighting devices using the CMP-PLA heat sinks was 540.6 lm and 72.68 lm/W respectively. Measured initial temperature of the heat sinks was $27^{\circ}C$, and their temperature increased as time to be saturated at $52^{\circ}C$ after an hour.

Green $BaSi_2O_2N_2:0.02Eu^{2+}$ phosphor is synthesized through a two-step solid state reaction method. The first firing is for crystallization, and the second firing is for reduction of $Eu^{3+}$ into $Eu^{2+}$ and growth of crystal grains. By thermal analysis, the three-time endothermic reaction is confirmed: pyrolysis reaction of $BaCO_3$ at $900^{\circ}C$ and phase transitions at $1,300^{\circ}C$ and $1,400^{\circ}C$. By structural analysis, it is confirmed that single phase [$BaSi_2O_2N_2$] is obtained with Cmcm space group of orthorhombic structure. After the first firing the morphology is rod-like type and, after the second firing, the morphology becomes round. Our phosphor shows a green emission with a peak position of 495 nm and a peak width of 32 nm due to the $4f^65d^1{\rightarrow}4f^7$ transition of $Eu^{2+}$ ion. An LED package (chip size $5.6{\times}3.0mm$) is fabricated with a mixture of our green $BaSi_2O_2N_2$, and yellow $Y_3Al_5O_{12}$ and red $Sr_2Si_5N_8$ phosphors. The color rendering index (90) is higher than that of the mixture without our green phosphor (82), which indicates that this is an excellent green candidate for white LEDs with a deluxe color rendering index.

We have synthesized bluish-green, highly-efficient $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$ and $(Ba,Sr)Si_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$ phosphors through a conventional solid state reaction method using metal carbonate, $Si_3N_4$, and $Eu_2O_3$ as raw materials. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of these phosphors revealed that a $BaSi_2O_2N_2$ single phase was obtained. The excitation and emission spectra showed typical broadband excitation and emission resulting from the 5d to 4f transition of $Eu^{2+}$. These phosphors absorb blue light at around 450 nm and emit bluish-green luminescence, with a peak wavelength at around 495 nm. From the results of an experiment involving Eu concentration quenching, the relative PL intensity was reduced dramatically for Eu = 0.033. A small substitution of Sr in place of Ba increased the relative emission intensity of the phosphor. We prepared several white LEDs through a combination of $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$, YAG:$Ce^{3+}$, and silicone resin with a blue InGaN-based LED. In the case of only the YAG:$Ce^{3+}$-converted LED, the color rendering index was 73.4 and the efficiency was 127 lm/W. In contrast, in the YAG:$Ce^{3+}$ and $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$-converted LED, two distinct emission bands from InGaN (450 nm) and the two phosphors (475-750 nm) are observed, and combine to give a spectrum that appears white to the naked eye. The range of the color rendering index and the efficiency were 79.7-81.2 and 117-128 lm/W, respectively. The increased values of the color rendering index indicate that the two phosphor-converted LEDs have improved bluish-green emission compared to the YAG:Ce-converted LED. As such, the $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor is applicable to white high-rendered LEDs for solid state lighting.

본 논문에서는 현재 양산되고 있는 Red(621 nm), Green(530 nm), Blue(453 nm), Amber(590 nm) 등 4파장의 LED 조합을 이용하여 색온도가 가변되는 동안에도 평균연색지수 및 특별연색지수 R9 값이 높게 유지될 수 있도록 조명의 스펙트럼을 최적화하였다. 최적화 시 설계의 정확도를 높이기 위하여 실제 측정한 LED 스펙트럼을 사용하였고 광선과 기구물 사이의 상호 작용을 고려한 광선 추적 기법을 활용하여 수행하였다 또한 최적화 결과를 검증하기 위하여 색온도 가변 조명 장치를 직접 제작하였으며 광 특성을 평가한 결과 색온도가 3000 K에서 6000 K까지 변하는 동안 CRI 및 R9 값이 각각 87~90, 34~93을 나타내었다.

Eight types of LED packages were manufactured according to the type and composition ratio of phosphors by using commercially available white LED phosphors. CRI (Ra), a conventional color quality evaluation method was evaluated by using manufactured white LED; the Rf, Rg, color vector graphic, and color distortion graphic were evaluated with a new method, IES TM-30-15. The results of the evaluation confirmed that the new method compensated for the disadvantages of CRI, which was found to be inadequate when the color was saturated. The added evaluation index identified the chroma variation and color change. Furthermore, the study showed that the changes of Rf and Rg are small when controlling phosphors based on CRI, questioningthe necessity of identifyingchroma variation and color change.

광원의 상관색온도와 연색성을 측정할 수 있는 간단한 시스템을 개발하였다. 전원전압과 전원주파수 변동시 백열전구와 각종 형광등의 색온도 및 연색성이 변화하는 경향을 측정하였다. 측정 결과, 통상 발생될 수 있는 전압변동의 범위 내에서 백열전구와 형광등의 색온도는 비교적 많이 변화하나, 연색평가수는 거의 변화하지 않는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 50kHz 까지의 주파수 변동 범위에서 형광등의 색온도와 연색성은 변화가 적었으나. 50kHz 이상으로 되면 많은 변화가 있을 것으로 예측된다.

This paper investigates a method to improve the lighting performance of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), which are packaged using two separate remote phosphor layers, a yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor layer and a red-emitting ${\alpha}-SrO{\cdot}3B_2O_3:Sm^{2+}$ phosphor layer. The thicknesses of these two layers are $800{\mu}m$ and $200{\mu}m$, respectively. Both of them are examined in conditions where the average correlated color temperatures (CCT) are 7700 K and 8500 K. For this two-layer model, the concentration of red phosphor is varied from 2% to 30% in the upper layer, while in the lower layer the yellow phosphor concentration is kept at 15%. It was found interestingly that the lighting properties such as color rendering index (CRI) and luminous flux are enhanced significantly, while the color uniformity is maintained in a relatively close range to the one of one-layer configuration (measured at the same correlated color temperature). Besides, the transmitted and reflected light of each phosphor layer are revised by combining Kubelka-Munk and Mie-Lorenz theories. Through analysis, it is demonstrated that the packaging configuration of two-layer remote phosphor that employs red-emitting ${\alpha}-SrO{\cdot}3B_2O_3:Sm^{2+}$ phosphor particles provides a practical solution for general WLEDs lighting.

눈부심 방지를 위한 확산판의 투과율과 연색지수 향상을 위한 양자점 필름의 농도가 고출력 직하형 백색 LED 조명의 광특성에 미치는 영향을 조사했다. 확산판의 투과율이 감소할 경우 조명의 휘도는 줄어들었고 색좌표, 상관색온도는 별다른 변화를 보이지 않았으며 연색지수는 약간 상승했다. 시야각에 따른 광특성의 편차는 거의 없었고 휘도 분포는 람버시안 분포에 가까웠다. 양자점 필름의 농도가 증가할 경우 스펙트럼 상 적색 성분이 늘어나면서 이 성분의 비중을 표현하는 색좌표 x가 증가했고 상관색온도는 약 6000 K에서 4000 K 부근으로 현저히 감소했다. 아울러 조명의 구조를 최적화하면 연색지수가 95까지 증가함을 확인했다. 이런 결과는 적절한 투과율의 확산판과 양자점 필름의 조합을 통해 눈부심이 없고 시야각에 따른 색편차가 거의 없으며 특히 색좌표의 가변이 가능한 고연색성의 조명 구현이 가능함을 보여준다.

The effect of titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) on the properties of color conversion glasses was examined for glasses based on $BaO-ZnO-B_2O_3-SiO_2$. One glass sample, containing 25 mol% of each component, was used as a reference; the other three glass samples contained 1, 3, and 5 mol% $TiO_2$, respectively. The four color conversion glass samples were prepared by sintering a mixture of glass frits and a $YAG:Ce^+$ phosphor. The characteristics of the color conversion glass samples, such as luminous efficacy, luminance, CIE (Commission International de I'Eclairage) chromaticity, CCT (Correlated Color Temperature), and CRI (Color Rendering Index) were analyzed according to the PL spectrum. The refractive index of the glass samples was found to increase with the titanium dioxide content. In conclusion, luminous efficacy of color conversion glasses increased as the content of $TiO_2$ was raised in the glass matrix.
