Nitride Phosphors and Solid-State Lighting provides an in-depth
introduction to the crystal chemistry, synthesis, luminescence, and
applications of phosphor materials for solid-state lighting, mainly
focusing on new nitride phosphors. Drawing on their extensive
experimental work, the authors offer a multidisciplinary study of
phosphor materials that encompasses materials science, inorganic
chemistry, solid-state chemistry, solid-state physics, optical
spectroscopy, crystal field theory, and computational materials
science. The book begins with an introduction to the principles,
semiconductor/phosphor materials, and characterizations of
solid-state lighting and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It
then discusses the optical and luminescence processes occurring in
optically active centers of solid materials and presents the
photoluminescence properties of traditional phosphors for white
LEDs, including garnets, aluminates, silicates, sulfides,
oxysulfides, phosphates, and scheelites. The remainder of the text
focuses on newly developed nitride phosphors. The authors describe
the crystal chemistry of general nitride compounds, the crystal
structure and photoluminescence properties of new nitride
phosphors, and synthetic methods for preparing nitride phosphors.
They detail the structural analysis of nitride phosphors and
present experimental and computational results of typical nitride
phosphors. The authors also examine key issues, such as excitation
and emission spectra, thermal quenching, and quantum efficiency.
The final chapter explores applications of nitride phosphors in
white LEDs for general lighting and LCD backlight purposes.
Covering novel luminescent materials, this book brings you up to
date on the evolving field of solid-state lighting. It illustrates
the fundamentals, synthesis, properties, and applications of the
latest nitride phosphor materials.
