Abstract
In this study, red-emitting SrB8O13:Sm2+ phosphor is proposed to enhance the color rendering property (CRP) of white lightemitting
diodes (WLEDs). Through LightTools we carry out the simulations by employing the two phosphor geometries like
the conformal phosphor geometry and the in-cup phosphor geometry. To verify the obtained results, the scattering
properties of phosphor layer after adding SrB8O13:Sm2+ are computed by using Mie-scattering theory. Moreover, the
relationship between the lumen output and the extinction coefficient is presented through the Lambert-Beer law. The
principal merits of this solution is to increase the CRP of 8500 K WLEDs to a value greater than 86..
