Abstract

The invention provides a high quality composite phosphor powder which ensures diversity in emission spectrum, color reproduction index, color temperature and color, a light emitting device using the same and a method for manufacturing the composite phosphor powder. The composite phosphor powder comprises composite particles. Each of the composite particles includes at least two types of phosphor particles and a light transmitting binder. The phosphor particles have different emission spectrums. In addition, the light transmitting binder is formed between the phosphor particles and binds them together.

Claims (14)

1. A composite phosphor powder comprising composite particles, wherein each of the composite particles comprises at least two types of phosphor particles having different emission spectrums and a light transmitting binder binding the phosphor particles to maintain a shape of individual composite particle, the light transmitting binder formed between the phosphor particles.

2. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two types of phosphor particles have different peak emission wavelengths.

3. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the light transmitting binder comprises a light transmitting polymer resin.

4. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 3 , wherein the light transmitting binder comprises an epoxy resin or a silicone resin.

5. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the composite phosphor particles have a mean diameter of 10 to 100 μm.

6. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the composite phosphor particles have a mean diameter of 20 to 50 μm.

7. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the each composite particle includes a red phosphor and a green phosphor.

8. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 7 , wherein the each composite particle comprises SrS:Eu and SrGa 2 S 4 :Eu.

9. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the each composite particle includes a green phosphor and a yellow phosphor.

10. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 9 , wherein the each composite particle comprises SrGa 2 S 4 :Eu and YAG:Ce.

11. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the each composite particle includes a red phosphor, a green phosphor and a yellow phosphor.

12. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 11 , wherein the each composite particle each comprises SrS:Eu, SrGa 2 S 4 :Eu and YAG:Ce.

13. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 1 , wherein the each composite particle comprises a red phosphor, a green phosphor, a yellow phosphor and an orange phosphor.

14. The composite phosphor powder according to claim 13 , wherein the each composite particle comprises SrS:Eu, SrGa 2 S 4 :Eu, YAG:Ce, and ZnSeS:Cu.
