White light emitting device

A white light emitting device for emitting a white light close to a natural light, comprising:

• a blue LED chip configured to emit a light having a dominant emission wavelength of about 440-465 nm;
• and
• a phosphor layer configured to be excited by the light having the dominant emission wavelength of the blue LED chip, the phosphor layer comprising:
• a blue-green phosphor having a peak emission wavelength of about 480-519 nm;
• a green phosphor having a peak emission wavelength of about 520-560 nm;
• and
• a red phosphor having a peak emission wavelength of about 620-670 nm,
• wherein the blue-green phosphor and the green phosphor both have a garnet structure represented by A3B5O12:Ce, A is selected from the group consisting of Y, Lu, and a combination of thereof, and B is selected from the group consisting of Al, Ga and a combination of thereof.
