摘要:
A fluorescent lamp is provided including a phosphor blend comprising less than about 10% by weight rare earth phosphor, based on the total weight of the phosphor composition. This phosphor blend, when coated on a lamp, provides a lamp that exhibits high color rendering index (CRI), of at least 87, while simultaneously achieving low CCT, of less than about 4500K, i.e. of between about 3000K and 4500K. The phosphor system provided includes a non-rare earth strontium red broad band phosphor, a non-rare earth blue broad band halophosphor, and a rare earth-doped green-blue emitting phosphor, more specifically, a combination of SAR and blue-halo non-rare earth phosphors, and less than 20 wt % BAMn phosphor, based on the total weight of the phosphor system.

A fluorescent lamp including the four rare earth phosphor system provided herein exhibits high color rendering index (CRI), of at least 87, while simultaneously achieving high lumen output, or lumens per watt (LPW), of at least 80. The phosphor coating may be disposed in a one or two layer coating format. The four rare earth phosphor system includes a red emitting phosphor, a green emitting phosphor, a blue emitting phosphor, and a blue-green emitting phosphor, all four phosphors being rare earth-doped phosphor compositions.

Mercury vapor discharge fluorescent lamps are provided. The lamp can include a lamp envelope enclosing a discharge space and having an inner surface. First and second electrodes can be positioned on the lamp, such as on opposite ends of the lamp envelope. An ionizable medium that includes mercury and an inert gas can be within said lamp envelope. A phosphor layer can be on the inner surface of the lamp envelope. The phosphor layer generally includes a phosphor blend of a calcium halophosphor, a blue phosphor having an emission peak at about 440 nm to about 490 nm, a blue-green phosphor having an emission peak at about 475 nm to about 530 nm, and a red phosphor having an emission peak at about 600 nm to about 650 nm.

Disclosed herein are lamps comprising a radiation source and a phosphor blend configured for conversion of radiation, the phosphor blend including at least two different rare earth phosphors, wherein the phosphor blend comprises at least one multimodal rare earth phosphor. Disclosed advantages may include greater lumen output than an identical lamp in which the phosphor blend, at the same loading, does not comprise at least one multimodal rare earth phosphor.

A fluorescent lamp is provided including a five phosphor blend comprising four rare earth phosphors, including BAMn, and a non-rare earth white halophosphate phosphor. This phosphor blend provides a lamp that exhibits high color rendering index (CRI), of at least about 85, i.e. at least 87, while simultaneously achieving good lumen output, or lumens per watt (LPW), of at least about 70, i.e. at least 75, at all CCTs, and particularly at lower CCT of between about 3000K and 4100K. The phosphor system provided includes a rare earth-doped red emitting phosphor, a rare earth-doped blue emitting phosphor, a rare earth-doped green-blue emitting phosphor, a rare earth-doped green emitting phosphor and a non-rare earth white halophosphate phosphor.

A low-pressure discharge lamp includes, in an exemplary embodiment, a light-transmissive envelope, a fill-gas composition capable of sustaining a discharge sealed inside the light-transmissive envelope, and a phosphor composition at least partially disposed on an interior surface of the light-transmissive envelope. The phosphor composition is disposed on an interior surface of the light-transmissive envelope in a plurality of layers that include at least a basecoat phosphor layer and a topcoat phosphor layer. The basecoat phosphor layer includes at least one halophosphor and the topcoat phosphor layer includes a blend of at least two rare earth phosphors. The basecoat phosphor layer has a greater Color Rendering Index (CRI) value than the topcoat phosphor layer.

A luminescent material includes an aluminate phosphor of formula I A1+xMg1+yAl10+zO17+x+y+1.5z:Eu2+, R3+, where 0≦x≦0.4, 0≦y≦1 and 0≦z≦0.2. A is selected from Ca, Ba, and Sr and combinations thereof. The aluminate phosphor is doped with a rare earth ion (R3+), which exists in stable multi-valence states in the luminescent material. R3+ is selected from the group consisting of Sm3+, Yb3+, Tm3+, Ce3+, Tb3+, Pr3+ and combinations thereof. Phosphors of formula I may be blended with other blue, yellow, orange, green, and red phosphors to yield white light phosphor blends. A lighting apparatus including such a luminescent material is also presented. The light apparatus includes a light source in addition to the luminescent material.
