Color stability is of major concern for LED-based products. Currently, much effort is done on lumen maintenance, and for color shift, no agreed method currently exists, be it from testing or from prediction side. To investigate the physics of color shift, we present experiments of each individual part failure of each individual part that are present in LED-based products. In order to develop a color shift prediction method, it is imperative to investigate the color shift contribution by each individual part. We present a new method to predict color shift on a system level, which we named the view factor approach. We compare this prediction method with experiments on luminaire level to conclude that we have taken satisfactory first steps in the field of color shift predictions for LED-based systems. ...

Luminous flux maintenance and color stability are two important factors to evaluate the lighting quality. Where a significant amount of research efforts are performed on the former and even some standards have been generated for lumen decay acceleration, research activities and achievements on the latter are lagging behind. DOE Energy Star Program requires that the change of chromaticity over the minimum lumen maintenance test period (6000 hours) should be within 0.007 on the CIE 1976 (u', v') diagram. The color shift mechanisms for LED lighting are complex due to its comprehensive structure, generally composed of LED die, phosphor, silicone, reflector, diffusers, and so on, all of which may contribute to the color shift during operation. On top of this, each individual component has its own degradation mechanism. Studies on the LED based luminaire level color shift reliability are little publicly available except some based on the statistical (data-driven) method... ...

Mid-power LED packages are now widely used in many indoor illumination applications due to several advantages. Temperature stress, humidity stress and current stress were experimentally designed and performed to accelerate the color shift of mid-power LED packages and color shift mechanisms have been discussed based on the color shift results obtained from measurements. Conclusions could be drawn:

Linear function fitting demonstrates a good linear relationship between color shift (Δu′ Δv′) and aging time almost for all the aging conditions. We can extrapolate the color shift Δu′ and Δv′ based on the fitted regression equations and then make the prediction for the total color shift Δu′v′.

Current stress can induce a different failure mode. Peak intensity reduction analysis reveals that the current stress accelerates the degradation of LED die.

Humidity test induced a substantial color shift both in u′ and v′. The u′ has an increased degradation rate after aging of 3000 h at 85%RH & 85 °C, there should be different degradation mechanisms during the whole humidity test. The molecular structure decomposition of silicone plates and then follows the silicone carbonization due to the long-term (3000 h) accumulated high localized temperature aging. ...
