| Abstract: | LEDs with the advantage of high luminous efficacy and long life time show the potential of replacing traditional luminaire. Most commercial white LED light sources use blue or ultraviolet chip coated with emitting phosphor, but the sensitivity and instability of such phosphors has become a big issue. The typical RGB-LED by using individual chips has the problem of spatial separation and insufficient spectral overlap which leads to low CRI. This study suggests a novel and high-efficiency design of fiber optical optocoupler to synthesize four colors emitted by separate LEDs to provide the ideal light sources by adjusting the individual LEDs separately. By choosing different colored light to be synthesized, this optocoupler can be used as light sources which can be highly controlled to offer the best lighting conditions. Compared with other widely used commercial LED sources, this new design of light sources can be used in special experiments which require multi-spectral light. |
