The simulation was improved to comprehensively imitate the whole optical process of pc-wLEDs, including total produce of chip and phosphor light, losses in the propagation, and output.Experiments were conducted to verify the simulation.Results show that, light output changes non-monotonously over phosphor concentration and thickness, having maximum value. Experimental maximum light efficiency of158 lmáW-1was obtained at concentration of 16 wt%, 6 %higher than that of 11 wt% and 17 % higher than that of 33wt%. Phosphor consumption of pc-wLEDs increases linearly with the increase of phosphor concentration and the decrease of thickness. Experimental phosphor consumption of pc-wLEDs with concentration of 11 wt% is only 37 %of that of 33 wt%.展开更多
