ABSTRACT:
A fluorescent lamps having colors similar to standard white can be prepared using two phosphor compositions. A blue emitting phosphor having a peak emission with a specified range and a 50% band width within a specified range is used with specific amounts of a yellow-emitting phosphor having a 50% band width within a specified range and a peak emission within a specified range provide a lamp having the same chromaticity as a standard white lamp with a higher lumer per watt than the standard white lamp. In one embodiment the blue emitting component has a second specific peak emission and a specific 50% bandwidth.
