We studied visual clarity according to the difference of color temperature and color rendering by using black and white printed paper and four sheets of colored paper under different kinds of lamps and same kind lamps. The results show visual clarity is proportioned to average color rendering index approximately except incandescent lamps and to color temperature under incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, high pressure sodium lamps, metal halide lamps and electrode less discharge lamps.

This paper investigates a method to improve the lighting performance of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), which are packaged using two separate remote phosphor layers, a yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor layer and a red-emitting ${\alpha}-SrO{\cdot}3B_2O_3:Sm^{2+}$ phosphor layer. The thicknesses of these two layers are $800{\mu}m$ and $200{\mu}m$, respectively. Both of them are examined in conditions where the average correlated color temperatures (CCT) are 7700 K and 8500 K. For this two-layer model, the concentration of red phosphor is varied from 2% to 30% in the upper layer, while in the lower layer the yellow phosphor concentration is kept at 15%. It was found interestingly that the lighting properties such as color rendering index (CRI) and luminous flux are enhanced significantly, while the color uniformity is maintained in a relatively close range to the one of one-layer configuration (measured at the same correlated color temperature). Besides, the transmitted and reflected light of each phosphor layer are revised by combining Kubelka-Munk and Mie-Lorenz theories. Through analysis, it is demonstrated that the packaging configuration of two-layer remote phosphor that employs red-emitting ${\alpha}-SrO{\cdot}3B_2O_3:Sm^{2+}$ phosphor particles provides a practical solution for general WLEDs lighting.

We developed high-efficient 6W-LED package with simple structure by applying Heat Slug and silicone-reflector. LED package was manufactured in $8.5{\times}8.5mm$ sized multi-chip structure having thickness of $500{\mu}m$ achieved by bonding silicon-reflector with prepreg on top of the plate after implementing the reflector placed on copper substrate Half Etching by thickness of $200{\mu}m$. The luminous flux, luminous efficacy, correlated color temperature, color rendering index and thermal resistance of developed LED was evaluated, and it verified the application of products by applying it to 120W-LED road luminaires through simulation. The luminous efficacy of LED package reached over 130lm/W, and it is possible to be manufactured into 120W-LED road luminaires using 18 packages. In addition, the simulation results showed average of horizontal illuminance and overall illuminance uniformity that is suitable for three-lane road.
