Abstract

Disclosed is a white LED lamp using an ultraviolet light emitting LED, which can simultaneously realize a high level of color rendering and a high level of brightness. Included is an LED chip 2 having a luminescence wavelength between 360 nm and 440nm, and a light emitting part excitable upon exposure to light from the LED chip 2 to emit white light and comprising a phosphor, the phosphor including blue, green, and red light emitting phosphors bonded to each other. A phosphor selected from europium-activated halophosphate phosphors and europium-activated aluminate phosphors is used as the blue light emitting phosphor. A gold- and aluminum-activated zinc sulfide phosphor is used as the green light emitting phosphor. A phosphor selected from europium- and samarium-activated lanthanum oxysulfide phosphors and copper- and manganese-activated zinc sulfide phosphors is used as the red light emitting phosphor.
