Abstract
Abstract The compaction of a Eu-doped Ca-α-SiAlON phosphor powder was performed by electrophoretic deposition (EPD). The effect on the adhesion and optical properties of the silica precursor as both a binder of the powder and a filler of the air voids were evaluated. The adhesion of the silica impregnated composite film to the silica glass substrate was characterized by the tape test. The improvement of the external quantum efficiency was confirmed from the PL spectra measurement after the silica impregnation. The temperature dependence of the external quantum efficiency was also investigated in order to discuss the advantage of using the silica precursor as a binder for high-brightness LED applications.
