Abstract
In thus study, Turmeric phosphor dye was extracted from Curcuma Longa L. via a simple technique using silica gel. The phosphor was used for light down-conversion of UV light for the manufacture white light emitting diode (WLED). The UV-LED was analyzed over 395nm wavelengths. The characteristics of the white light chromaticity were controlled by tuning the current and phosphor concentration. An optimum color rendering index (CRI) value of 63.4 was obtained. The chromaticity coordinates (CIE) and correlated color temperature (CCT) were measured for various currents and phosphor concentrations. The white phosphor exhibited CIE value of 0.355,0.338 and CCT of 4567 K. The concentration of phosphor and amount of applied current were confirmed to be major factors that control the intensity of white light emitted from the sample, where CIE and CRI of the emitted light steadily increased with the concentration of phosphor and current. Thus, phosphor concentration has a critical effect on conversion efficiency. Key words: Turmeric, phosphor, WLED, curcumin
