Using supercomputers and data mining, a team led by engineers at UC San Diego has discovered and developed a new phosphor to make LEDs with excellent color quality. Under UV light, the phosphor emits either green-yellow or blue light depending on the chemical activator that is mixed in.

 

Researchers published the new phosphor on Feb. 19 in the journal Joule.
