Abstract :
Data are presented demonstrating red-orange-yellow spectrum (Al xGa1-x)0.5In0.5P/GaP high-power light-emitting diode (LED) lamps which emit 10-20 lm of flux while simultaneously maintaining luminous efficiencies of ⩾20 lm/W. The flux emitted by these devices represents an improvement of about five times compared to conventional high-brightness transparent-substrate (AlxGa1-x)0.5In 0.5P/GaP LED lamps
