Junction temperature and luminous flux prediction for white LED array based on electrical-photo-thermal modeling

During the operation of an LED array, its thermal and optical performances are always not equal to the superposition of the individual LED's characteristics because of a significant thermal coupling effect between the arrays. Based on this, this paper proposes an electrical–photo-thermal model, with considering both junction temperature and...

Luminous performances characterization of YAG: Ce3+ phosphor/silicone composites using both reflective and transmissive laser excitations

YAG: Ce3+ phosphor/silicone composites are widely used in solid-state lighting as a light converter to achieve white lighting. However, because of high thermal resistance and low thermal stability, the luminous performance of YAG: Ce3+ phosphor/silicone composite deteriorates rapidly when excited by high-power-density blue-laser. To explore...

Reliability Assessment of Light-Emitting Diode Packages with Both Luminous Flux Response Surface Model and Spectral Power Distribution Method

The inherent luminous characteristics and stability of LED packages during the operation period are highly dependent on their junction temperatures and driving currents. In this paper, the luminous flux of LED packages operated under a wide range of driving currents and junction temperatures are investigated to develop a luminous flux...
