Sulfur-Rich Ageing Mechanism of Silicone Encapsulant Used in LED Packaging: An Experimental and Molecular Dynamic Simulation Study

In a light-emitting diode (LED) package, silicone encapsulant serves as a chip protector and enables the light to transmit, since it exhibits the advantages of high light transmittance, high refractive index, and high thermal stability. However, its reliability is still challenged under harsh operation conditions. In this study, the optical...

Dynamic mechanical analysis of (Ca,Sr)AlSiN3: Eu2+ phosphor/silicone composites aged under the temperature–humidity–sulfur coupled condition

As a core packaging material of light color conversion, phosphor/silicone composite plays an indispensable role in light emitting diode (LED) packaging. At present, commercial LED packages mainly use blue LED chips to stimulate Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (YAG) yellow phosphor to reach a white color. However, (Ca,Sr)AlSiN 3 :Eu 2+ (CSASN) red...
