Abstract

A light emitting apparatus including a first light emitter including at least one first light emitting diode and a wavelength converter, and a second light emitter including at least one second light emitting diode, in which the first light emitting diode emits light having a central wavelength in a range of violet or blue, the second light emitting diode emits light having a central wavelength in a range of about 400 nm to 420 nm, the wavelength converter includes green and red phosphors to convert light of the first light emitting diode into the white light, in the white light, an irradiance of light emitted from the first light emitting diode is less than that from the red phosphor, and an irradiance of light emitted from the second light emitting diode is greater than that of the white light emitted from the first light emitter at the same wavelength.
