Abstract:Metrics & MoreArticle Recommendations CONSPECTUS: Rare-earth-containing phosphors were crucial to the advances made to compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), which assisted in protecting a widely used halophosphate phosphor from degrading after exposure to a high ultraviolet flux. The CFL phosphors are often coated twice by depositing a light coat of rareearth-containing phosphors over the inexpensive halophosphate phosphor, which generates white light with high efficacy and a good color rendering index and possess… Show more
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.
