Most of the commercial white LED lamps use blue chip coated with yellow emitting phosphor. YAG:Ce3+ phosphor is coated on blue chip to obtain white light. Though this is commercially successful, there are several drawbacks such as “halo effect”, poor colour rendition, etc. In recent years several efforts have been made to improve LED lamp performance. In this paper modifica-tion of YAG:Ce phosphor for improving CRI, by introducing Gd3+, Pr3+ or Tb3+ at Ce3+ site is reported.
