Outline of Final Research Achievements

The blue laser-driven solid-state lighting is superior to white LEDs in super-high power density and super-high brightness, which attracts great attention in recent year. In this research, we attempted to develop luminescent phosphor-in-glass (PiG) and ceramic materials as color converters in laser lighting, and investigated the preparation of nitride PiG and ceramic materials and their photoluminescence properties under blue laser irradiations. The results showed that translucent PiG luminescent materials could be prepared at low temperatures, but they exhibited strong luminescence saturation under the high-power blue laser excitation. In addition, highly densified luminescent ceramics could be fabricated by using spark plasma sintering. These luminescent ceramics had relatively higher thermal conductivities, and thus showed less luminescence saturation than the PiG materials.
