Complete blue phosphor portfolio featuring UV-excitable aluminate series and upconversion fluoride phosphor for UV-LED lighting, display backlighting, anti-counterfeiting, and biomedical fluorescence applications.
Understanding the key technical challenges in UV-LED and biomedical applications
Achieving pure blue output with narrow bandwidth is critical for display color gamut. Wide FWHM results in color bleeding and poor saturation.
Standard phosphors designed for blue chips don't perform well under UV excitation. Specialized UV-optimized phosphors are required for 360-390nm chips.
Traditional fluorescence suffers from high background noise. Upconversion phosphors with NIR excitation offer superior signal-to-noise ratio.
Consistent particle size distribution is essential for uniform dispensing and coating. Tight D50 tolerance ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility.
From UV-excitable aluminate to upconversion fluoride, meeting all lighting and biomedical requirements
360-390nm UV excitation · 450nm pure blue output · Narrow 51.7nm FWHM
| Model | Peak λ | FWHM | D50 | CIE Coord. | Excitation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DL-450UV | 450±1nm | 51.7nm | 7±0.5μm | (0.1447, 0.0636) | 360-390nm UV |
DL-450UV features narrow 51.7nm FWHM for excellent color purity in UV-LED applications
Aluminate crystal structure provides: excellent UV excitation efficiency optimized for 360-390nm chips, narrow bandwidth (51.7nm FWHM) for high color purity, white powder appearance for easy process control, and 12-month shelf life under proper storage conditions.
DL-450UV is specifically designed for UV LED chips (360-390nm). Its narrow 51.7nm FWHM delivers excellent color purity ideal for high color gamut displays. For blue chip (450-460nm) applications, consider YAG or LD series yellow/green phosphors instead. The tight D50 tolerance of 7±0.5μm ensures consistent dispensing performance.
980nm NIR excitation · 478nm blue emission · Ultra-fine 7μm particles
| Model | Peak λ | Type | D50 | Powder Color | Excitation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LD-980-B | 478±1nm | Upconversion | 7±0.5μm | White | 980nm NIR |
LD-980-B upconversion phosphor converts 980nm NIR to 478nm blue light with minimal background interference
Fluoride-based upconversion mechanism provides: minimal background interference — NIR excitation avoids biological autofluorescence, deep tissue penetration — NIR light penetrates several millimeters into tissue, excellent photostability — resistant to photobleaching for long-term observation, and low phonon energy (~350 cm⁻¹) for high upconversion efficiency.
LD-980-B is ideal for biomedical fluorescence labeling, immunoassays, and anti-counterfeiting applications. The 7μm ultra-fine particles offer excellent dispersibility for bio-conjugation. For biological applications, surface modification (PEG, carboxyl, amino groups) is recommended to improve water solubility and biocompatibility. Standard excitation uses 980nm NIR laser at 0.1-10 W/cm² power density.
