Light emission source LED component, horticultural light, and horticultural lighting fixture
A lighting fixture for facilitating plant growth and a light emitting component. The fixture includes a single light emission source LED device which provides at least two emission peaks in the wavelength range of 300-800 nm and at least one of the emission peaks has Full Width of Half Maximum (FWHM) at least 50 nm or higher. The emission peaks of the LED match well with a plant photosynthesis response spectrum and is therefore particularly suitable for high efficiency artificial lighting.
1. A single light emission source light emitting diode (LED) component comprising:
a single semiconductor LED chip having first spectral characteristics with an emission peak between wavelengths of 400 nm and 470 nm; and
a first phosphor and a second phosphor disposed in proximity to the single semiconductor LED chip and covering the single semiconductor LED chip, the first and second phosphors being configured to down-convert 5-95% of a radiation power of the semiconductor LED chip,
the first phosphor having second spectral characteristics with a maximum emission peak between wavelengths of 400 nm and 500 nm, and
the second phosphor having third spectral characteristics with a maximum emission peak between wavelengths of 600 nm and 800 nm,
wherein the maximum emission peak of the third spectral characteristics has a higher intensity than intensities of the maximum emission peaks of the first and second spectral characteristics,
wherein the single light emission source light emitting diode (LED) component is for horticultural lighting.
