Abstract
Phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (w-LEDs) are generally fabricated by combining a blue LED chip with a yellow phosphor or an ultraviolet (UV) LED chip with a tricolor-emitting phosphor. To obtain w-LEDs with excellent performance, many single-color emission phosphors have been used in these systems, which result in high cost and low luminous efficiency due to the complicated manufacture, reabsorption of emission colors, and different aging rates for each phosphor. Searching for a novel single-phased multicolor-emitting phosphor with excellent chemical and thermal stability for UV-pumped white LEDs is an important consideration, which arouses more attention from researchers. According to previous publications and our results, five methods were summarized to design the multicolor-emitting phosphor: (1) enhancing the red emission of YAG:Ce3+ yellow phosphor by introducing red-emitting dopants; (2) use of a single activator with several metastable multiplets offers the possibility of simultaneous emission in the blue, green, orange, red, and infrared wavelengths; (3) use of a multiple-ion codoped system based on energy transfer; (4) use of an up-conversion luminescence system, and (5) use of a semiconductor quantum dot and defects emission. Moreover, the challenges and future of multicolor-emitting phosphors are also discussed.
