White light emitting lamp and white LED lighting apparatus including the same

摘要

An object is to provide a white light emitting lamp in which a BGR phosphor containing blue, green and red phosphor is combined with a semiconductor light emitting element such as an LED, a deep red phosphor having a main emission peak in a longer wavelength region than a main emission peak of the red phosphor is further added so as to enhance characteristics, whereby both high luminance and high color rendering properties can be obtained. This invention provides a white light emitting lamp 1 comprising: a semiconductor light emitting element 2 that is placed on a board 3 and emits ultraviolet light or blue light; and a light emitting portion that is formed so as to cover a light emitting surface of the semiconductor light emitting element 2, the light emitting portion containing a blue phosphor B, a green phosphor G, and a red phosphor R that are excited by the light emitted from the semiconductor light emitting element 2 to respectively emit blue light, green light, and red light, the white light emitting lamp 1 emitting white light by mixing light emission colors from the blue phosphor B, the green phosphor G, and the red phosphor R with one another, wherein the light emitting portion further contains a deep red phosphor DR having a main emission peak in a longer wavelength region than a main emission peak of the red phosphor.
