The combination of light\u2010emitting diodes (LEDs) and rare earth (RE) phosphors as color\u2010converting layers comprises the basis of solid\u2010state lighting. Indeed, most LED lamps include a photoluminescent coating made of phosphor material, i.e., crystalline matrix suitably doped with RE elements, to produce white light from a blue or ultraviolet LED chip. Transparent phosphor\u2010based films constitute starting materials for new refined emitters that allow different photonic designs to be implemented. Among the different photonic strategies typically employed to tune or enhance emission, surface texturing has proved its versatility and feasibility in a wide range of materials and devices. However, most of the nanofabrication techniques cannot be applied to RE phosphors directly because of their chemical stability or because of their cost. The first monolithic patterned structure of down\u2010shifting nanophosphors with square arrays of nanoholes with different lattice parameters is reported in this study. It is shown that a low\u2010cost soft\u2010nanolithography procedure can be applied to red\u2010emitting nanophosphors (GdVO4:Eu3+\u00a0nanocrystals) to tune their emission properties, attaining a twofold directional enhancement of the emitted light at predesigned emission wavelengths in specific directions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
