“…Much attention has been paid to white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) for solid-state lighting applications due to their excellent brightness, low power consumption, long lifetime, and environmental friendliness. [1][2][3] Generally, white light emission results from the use of phosphor to transform part of emissions of blue LEDs to the yellow-green spectral range. The transformation is related to an energy loss termed Stokes' loss, which is on the order of 25% and thus restricts the highest attainable phosphor-converted WLED efficiency to much less than 100%; [4,5] however, in principle, one can avoid the loss through the use of phosphor-free monolithic WLEDs, which are integrated by blue, green, and even red long-wavelength InGaN-based LEDs, since the nitride system can cover the entire spectral region of the emitted light from near-ultraviolet to near-infrared by adjusting the composition of InGaN alloy.…”
