, Phone: þ372 55943419 A liquid glass-based phosphor material for white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is proposed. The material is based on sodium silicate (Na 2 SiO 3 ) matrix with embedded microparticles of cerium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG:Се 3þ ). The technique for the material synthesis is described. The results of investigation of the optical and thermal characteristics of the material and a white LED module with a primary optic element made of the material are presented. Advantages of the developed phosphor material for primary optics applications in high-power LED modules as compared to commercial silicone are demonstrated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
