Lead Performer: Lumenari Inc. – Lexington, KY
DOE Total Funding: $1,488,424
Cost Share: $372,105
Project Term: September 1, 2016 – February 28, 2019
Funding Opportunity: SSL R&D Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) (DE-FOA-0001364)
Project Objective
This project will develop a narrow-bandwidth red phosphor to improve phosphor-converted LED efficacy up to 28%. This will be accomplished through a combination of experimental and computational techniques to develop a novel host material for the selected emitter ion.
Project Impact
This project will result in better stability and efficiency by reducing the amount of light that gets wasted outside the visible range.
