Introduction
With the continuous development of semiconductor lighting and display technology, higher requirements are placed on the performance of phosphors.
The use of blue LED yellow phosphor has developed into the use of ultraviolet-blue LED blue-green/yellow/yellow-green/red phosphors, as well as blue LED green/red phosphors, including garnet structure aluminate yellow/yellow-green phosphors, nitride red phosphors, silicate LED rare earth phosphor products of mainstream systems such as salt green/yellow phosphor, nitrogen oxide blue-green phosphor, etc. are becoming more and more diverse.
The comprehensive performance requirements of products are getting higher and higher, especially the new requirements for product reliability.
With the upgrading of local phosphor products and technologies, it is necessary to establish a unified evaluation method that conforms to the existing technology.
GB/T 23595 "Test methods for rare earth phosphors for LEDs" consists of 8 parts.
— Part 1: Determination of spectrum;
— Part 2: Determination of relative brightness;
— Part 3: Determination of chromaticity coordinates;
— Part 4: Determination of high temperature and high humidity performance;
— Part 5: Determination of pH value;
— Part 6: Determination of electrical conductivity;
— Part 7: Determination of thermal quenching properties;
— Part 8: Determination of high voltage accelerated aging performance.
In recent years, with the development of semiconductor lighting technology, the number of phosphor systems has gradually increased, and its application areas have continued to expand, including ordinary color rendering, high Market segments such as color rendering, full spectrum, high-power lighting and general color gamut display require higher precision in the excitation and emission spectra of phosphors.
In terms of spectrum testing instruments, the detection speed, measurement range, stability and measurement accuracy of phosphor samples have been significantly improved. The current national standard stipulates The test range, test accuracy and error cannot meet the actual application requirements. This document focuses on the expansion of the scope of application, test method The increase of light sources in the principle of the method and the upgrade of equipment accuracy have made the measurement steps and parameter requirements of the spectrum clearer.
The test method improves the accuracy and applicability of product testing, which is helpful for domestic and foreign LED rare earth phosphor manufacturers and related industries Production guidance and usage specifications.

3 Terms and definitions
The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 5838.1 and the following apply to this document.
3.1
A set of parameters used to characterize the color of the light emitted by the phosphor after being excited is calculated according to the CIE-1931 standard chromaticity observer rules.
4 Principle
Quasi-monochromatic light of a specific wavelength is used as the excitation light source to excite the fluorescence produced by the phosphor and convert the light signal into an electrical signal through a spectrometer.
The relative emission spectrum power distribution of the entire visible light band is measured at a certain wavelength interval, the influence of the excitation light is eliminated, and then according to CIE-1931 Standard observer rules for colorimetry are used to calculate chromaticity coordinates.
5 Instruments and Equipment
