Abstract

To provide a phosphor mixture realizing a light emitting device having a phosphor and a light emission element, by which light emission is performed, with a small color shift due to a feeding current and having an excellent color rendering properties. CaAlSin3:Eu as a red phosphor and YAG:Ce as a yellow phosphor are manufactured, and emission spectra thereof are obtained. Meanwhile, the emission spectrum of an excitation light emitted by a light emitting part is obtained. From the emission spectra thus obtained, a relative mixing ratio of each phosphor is obtained by simulation, so that a correlated color temperature of the light emitting device becomes a target temperature. Then, based on the relative mixing ratio thus obtained, each phosphor is measured and mixed, and a phosphor mixture is thereby obtained.
