Abstract

In this letter, we investigated the dynamic phosphor sedimentation effect on the optical performance of phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (pcLEDs) with dispensed phosphor layer. To analyze the phosphor sedimentation effect, we realized two packaging structures to sediment phosphor particles above/outside LED chip separately. The phosphor sedimentation effect on the luminous efficiency and correlated color temperature (CCT) were tested by experiments, followed by a quantitative exploration to the mechanism by evaluating the angular color uniformity and light intensity distribution-based Monte Carlo ray-tracing simulations. Results show that phosphor sedimentation happened above LED chip will decrease CCT by 33.19%, and happened outside LED chip will increase CCT by 269%. For the conventional packaging structure, phosphor sedimentation will lead to the decreasing CCT at first and the increasing CCT soon afterwards, and the CCT variation is 39.62%.
