Ce:YAG-PMMA nanocomposite for white LED

Ce:YAG-PMMA composite was prepared by a melt compounding method. The characterization was performed using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Results showed that Ce:YAG particles are well dispersed in the polymeric matrix. The luminescence properties of the nanocomposite do not show quenching or significant spectral shift indicating that the nanocomposite can be useful for advanced applications such as white LED construction.
