백색 LED 기술이 발달함에 따라 적색 형광체는 산업 및 학계에서 점차 중요성이 커지고 있으며, 시장에서 수요는 꾸준히 증가했다. 적색 형광체는 고효율 및 고연색의 LED 조명에 사용된다. 그러나 $Eu^{2+}$ 활성제를 사용한 적색 형광체는 4f-5d 전이로 발생하는 녹색 또는 황색 스펙트럼 영역에서의 강한 재흡수로 인해 백색 LED 칩에서 색상 변경 및 발광 강도의 저하를 유발했다. 이러한 단점이 없고 연색성 지수(CRI)를 더 향상할 수 있는 $Mn^{4+}$ 도핑된 형광체가 현재 매우 중요하다. 그러나 $Mn^{4+}$ 도핑된 형광체는 $^2E_g{\rightarrow}^4A_2$ 전이로 인하여 발광 파장이 모체에 따라 결정된다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구는 동일구조의 $SrGe_4O_9$와 $BaGe_4O_9$ 모체를 합성하여 $Sr_{1-x}B_axGe_4O_9:Mn^{4+}{_{0.005}}$ (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1)를 얻었다. 이로 인해 LED 기술의 다양한 색상 조정이 가능해졌다.

$NaCaGd(MoO_4)_3:Ho^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ ternary molybdates were successfully synthesized by microwave sol-gel method for the first time. Well-crystallized particles formed after heat-treatment at $900^{\circ}C$ for 16 h showed a fine and homogeneous morphology with particle sizes of $3-5{\mu}m$. Under excitation at 980 nm, the UC intensities of the doped samples exhibited strong yellow emissions based on the combination of strong emission bands at the 520-nm and 630-nm emission bands in the green and red spectral regions, respectively. The strong 520-nm emission band in the green region corresponds to the $^5S_2/^5F_4{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition of $Ho^{3+}$ ions, while the strong 630-nm emission band in the red region appears to be due to the $^5F_5{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition of the $Ho^{3+}$ ions. The optimal $Yb^{3+}:Ho^{3+}$ ratio was found at 9:1, as indicated by the composition-dependent quenching effect of $Ho^{3+}$ ions. The pump power dependence of the upconversion emission intensity and the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage chromaticity coordinates of the phosphors were evaluated in detail.

Recently, white LEDs, especially, warm white LEDs have been intensively investigated due to outstanding optical properties, long term stability and low power consumption. In this study, mixed type and patterned type of remote phosphors were prepared by screen printing process employing green and red phosphor. Each type of remote phosphor exhibited distinctive photoluminescence spectrum. For example, the mixed type of remote phosphor exhibited unique spectrum, while the patterned type showed expectable spectrum depending on the concentration of phosphors. This indicates that a small amount of red phosphor dramatically reduced the green photoluminescence in the case of mixed-type remote phosphor, whereas the effect was negligible in the patterned-type remote phosphor. The possibility of undesirable chemical reaction was further investigated by using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction.

In this paper, the fabrication of a white light-emitting diode (WLED) package capable of producing different color rendering indexes (CRI ($R_a$)) using different types of phosphors (YAG:Ce, Silicate, Nitride, LuAG) for the LEDs is presented. The color quality is evaluated based on the current and temperature variation conditions. The evaluation method for color quality compares the existing CIE 13.3 method and the new IES TM-30-15 method. The CRI ($R_a$) defined in the conventional CIE 13.3 has the disadvantage. This cannot offer any information relevant to the user's preference. However, the newly proposed IES TM-30-15 method suggests the additional measure related to user's preference such as Color Gamut ($R_g$). The present experimental results obtained using the IES TM-30-15 show that the color quality of the WLEDs using green and red phosphors are better than that of the WLEDs using yellow phosphor, but their luminous efficacies are lower. The color quality of WLEDs using green and red phosphors are more stable than that of the WLEDs using yellow phosphor, for current and temperature variations, and it is verified that the phosphor causes this change. The evaluation method for color quality, based on IES TM-30-15, is proved to be capable of overcoming the problems of the existing evaluation methods by this study.

The mechanochemical process were employed to prepare the red phosphors (Y,Gd)$BO_3:Eu^{3+}$. The main factors affecting particle size, particle distribution, and luminescent properties of the product were investigated in details. Particles sized around 200-600 nm are formed after intensive milling. The phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and photoluminescence spectrum. Results revealed that phosphors with different morphology, small particle size and high luminescence intensity could be obtained by mechanochemical process.

Y₂O₃:Eu_x (x = 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1 mol) phosphors are synthesized with different concentrations of Eu³⁺ ions by solvothermal method. The crystal structure, surface and optical properties of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors are investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) analyses. From X-ray diffraction (XRD) results, the crystal structure of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphor is found to be cubic. The maximum emission spectra of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors are observed at 0.05 mol Eu³⁺ concentration. The photoluminescence of 615 nm in the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors is associated with ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ transition of Eu³⁺ ions. The decrease in emission intensity of 0.1 mol Eu doped Y₂O₃ is interpreted by concentration quenching. The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) coordinates of 0.05 mol Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphor are X = 0.6547, Y = 0.3374.

To increase light efficiency, utilizing phosphors transfers ultraviolet ray to visible light and the fluorescent characteristic without change the electrical or optical design. Spreading phosphors on the surface of light bulb mirror can compensate the red and blue light to yield this correct white field after being stimulated by reflected ultraviolet ray.

In this study, we have investigated the substitutional effects of In ions with divalent ones in the $Srln_2O_4:Pr^{3+}$ phosphors and the relative change of the red and blue emissions. The substitutional Zn ions greatly intensified the blue emission band at 492 nm, but the red emission band at 608 nm was relatively less changed. On the other hand, Cd ions have no effect on the relative intensities. We explained the phenomena in connection with the distance of Pr-D, i.e., covalency experienced by a $Pr^{3+}$ion.

Deep red color emitting $YVO_4:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors were investigated in an attempt to achieve promising performances in cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) applications. For this purpose, several additives such as LiF, $Li_2CO_3$ and $HBO_3$ were introduced in the processing. While two of the additives were ineffective, the inclusion of $LiCO_3$ during the solid state synthesis of $YVO_4:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors was proven to enhance photoluminescent intensity and the color chromaticity. Unlike the commercially available $YVO_4:Eu^{3+}$ red phosphor for use in PDP applications, pure $YVO_4:Eu^{3+}$ excluding phosphorous was shown to be favorable for CCFL applications, improving color chromaticity at 254nm excitations.

A red phosphor, $(Sr,Ca)_2P_2O_7:Eu^{2+},Mn^{2+}$, for UV-LED was synthesized under a reducing atmosphere, and its luminescent properties were investigated. The phosphor absorbs ultraviolet light at around 400 nm and efficiently emits red light at approximately 610 nm through an energy transfer from $Eu^{2+}$ to $Mn^{2+}$. Using the varied input current test for the phosphor-loaded LED lamps, it was found that the luminescent efficiency of the phosphor decreased with increasing light flux. This might be due to an increased probability of excited-state absorption and the consequent non-radiative relaxation in $Mn^{2+}$ ions in the condition of high photon influx.
