Abstract

Nitride Phosphors have recently been considered as a novel class of luminescent materials for white LEDs due to their promising luminescent properties. It is of great importance to tailor the emission color in order to meet the requirements for practical applications. The paper presents the results of tuning the emission colors of sialon phosphors through compositional tailoring.
