“…In particular, the CIE coordinates of BMW:0.5%Er 3+ were found to be (0.30, 0.35), which appears close to the ideal white-light (0.33, 0.33) (marked as a white star). As compared to the CIE of other Er 3+ -activated phosphors, for instance YAG:Er 3+ (0.24, 0.51), 43 Sr 9 Al 6 O 18 :Er 3+ (0.29, 0.46), 45 ZnO:Er 3+ (0.35, 0.43), 44 NaLaMgWO 6 :Er 3+ (0.23, 0.60), 57 LiLaMgWO 6 :Er 3+ (0.27, 0.67), 39 and Ba 2 CaWO 6 (0.37, 0.57), 54 this result seems to be a good approach to the ideal white-light.…”
