Abstract

In the effort of improving the performance of white light LEDs devices (WLEDs), the SiO2 nano-particles were applied and have shown a significant impact on the optical properties. Specifically, the light output of the lighting devices is enhanced when a mixture of SiO2 particles and silicone gel is diffused on the encapsulation layer surface. This enhancement is the result of light scattering from SiO2 that strengthens the emitted blue light at further angles and reduces the color discrepancy. The evidence is that CCT deviation in SiO2-doped structure decline from 1000 K to 420 K in -70° to 70°. In addition, the SiO2 with refractive index in between the phosphor material and outside environment allows light to be emitted outward more effectively. This lighting enhancement of SiO2-doped structure increases the lumen output by 2.25% at 120 mA power source in comparison to structure without SiO2. These experimental outcomes suggest that SiO2 is an effective material to add in WLEDs structure for better lighting efficiency.

Abstract

Surface coverings using nanomaterials of silica nanoparticles and poly (methyl methacrylate) – abbreviated “PMMA-silica nanomaterials” – are introduced to the Y2O2S:Eu3+ phosphor through four distinct approaches. The objective is to enhance Y2O2S:Eu3+ phosphorescence and prolonged sustainability. Using immerse-daubing along with sol-gel approach (Stober way), it is possible to have Y2O2S:Eu3+ phosphors covered with relatively-monodisperse nano-silica particles (5 nm). To create the silica nano-crystals employed in the coating process of phosphors, we carry out concurrently hydrolysis and condensation procedures to develop the formation and basic polymerization utilizing poly (1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone). The surface coating layer for Y2O2S:Eu3+ spheres, which comprises polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)-silica nanocomposites, can be formed in two ways: by combining silica nanogranules with methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer as well as through subjecting MMA to tetraethyl orthosilicate (Si(OC₂H₅)₄) chemical compound. The latter approach demonstrated is considered the highest augmentation in phosphorescence and prolonged sustainability for Y2O2S:Eu3+ spheres. Specifically, when using the second approach to get PMMA-silica phosphor coating, Y2O2S:Eu3+ exhibited a 5-percent increase in the phosphorescent intensity, compared to untreated phosphors. Contrary to a drop in cathode phosphorescence (CP) output and a rising bombardment duration for exposed phosphor, the latter technique produces a practically constant CP energy with PMMA-silica nanocomposite covered phosphors.
