The LED (light emitting diode) light source that includes an LED chip or an array of LED chips that emit blue, or UV, violet, or other narrow wavelength light and a phosphor conversion coating that absorbs the radiation from the LED and re-emits lights of longer wavelengths and with wider spectrum of wavelength. The phosphor conversion coating includes a plurality of layered phosphor films wherein adjacent phosphor films are formed of different phosphor materials. A method of forming an LED light source includes soldering LED chip to an electrically insulating substrate and forming a phosphor conversion layer. Forming the phosphor conversion layer includes depositing a number of adjacent phosphor films directly on the surface of the LED chip or on the surface of an optically transparent substrate which may be of curved or flat surface. |
