Abstract

For white light generation with LUCOLEDs the phosphors on the base of YAG:Ce are ideally suited. The variation of the phosphor composition were performed. Powder Ga-substituted phosphors as well as Lu,Y,La,Sc- substituted epitaxial films were investigated. The effects on luminescence and excitation spectra, which is relevant for luminescence conversion, are reported.
