Light Emitting Device and Phosphor of Alkaline Earth Sulfide Therefor

摘要

The present invention relates to a light emitting device comprising a light emitting diode for emitting blue light or ultraviolet rays, and at least one orthosilicate based phosphor for emitting light in a green to yellow region and an alkaline earth metal sulfide based phosphor for emitting light in a red region which are installed above the light emitting diode. According to the light emitting device of the present invention, white light with a continuous spectrum ranging from green to red can be implemented such that more excellent color rendering and color reproducibility can be obtained. Therefore, the light emitting device of the present invention can used in an liquid crystal display backlight unit as well as a general lighting source and flash light source.
