The LuAG:Ce-Al2O3 (LAGCA) green phosphor ceramic (GPC) is proposed for high-power white light emitting diodes (LEDs) in this paper. The luminescent properties of the GPC are examined with proper characterizing tools and under laser excitation. Then, LAGCA ceramic layer of 0.6 thickness is applied to fabricate the white LED. The results show LAGCA GPC is promising for high-power LED applications. The phosphor ceramic presents high thermostability and quantum efficacy and intense green emission peaking at nearly 550 nm. In the LED package, the amount of LAGCA in the composite layer is varied. The increasing dosage of LAGCA gives enhancement to the lumen output of the LED. However, the correlated color temperature stability and chromatic rendition declines. Thus, further improvements in LAGCA ceramic need to be carried out in the future works. Besdies, with the intense green emission, the LAGCA ceramics can be combined with red luminescent materials to increase the color performance of the LED lighting.
