Abstract
A fluorescent lamp comprises at least one layer of a four-component phosphor blend for producing visible illumination having a white color. The quad-phosphor blend comprising a first and second red-emitting phosphor component with each red-emitting phosphor component having different visible emission spectrum principally in the 590 to 630 nm wavelength range. A third blue-emitting phosphor component has an emission spectrum principally in the 430 to 490 nm wavelength range. A fourth no-rare-earth green-emitting phosphor component has an emission spectrum principally in the 500 to 570 nm wavelength range. The relative proportions of the phosphor components are such that an enhanced color rendering index is produced as compared to tri-component blends formed from only three of the phosphor components.
