As display and lighting technologies evolve, so do the demands placed on their core materials. In mini LED LCD displays, conventional large-grain phosphors limit how much LED size can shrink.
At the same time, high power solid-state lighting pushes phosphors to withstand extreme thermal and optical stress. With rising blue chip power densities, managing heat and maintaining color uniformity have become critical challenges. At Seaborough, we develop advanced phosphor powders and ceramics with high thermal dissipation and tunable scattering properties to meet these requirements. Our Crystalight® solution enables next-generation displays and lighting systems to perform with precision, efficiency, and durability.
Crystalight® Mini is a (Lu,Y)AG:Ce nanocrystalline powder with a d50 that can go as small as sub-20 nanometers, while maintaining a narrow size distribution.
Key benefits of Crystalight® Mini:
Crystalight® High Power & Ceramics, a nano-garnet based ceramic composite, based on Seaborough’s proprietary technology.
Key benefits of Crystalight® High Power & Ceramics:
As devices transition to mini LED and micro LED, the industry needs down converting materials that perform at nano to submicron scales. Nanophosphors such as YAG:Ce are strong candidates, yet conventional nanocrystalline YAG has struggled with clustered particles, low absorption and quantum efficiency, and reliability concerns.
At Seaborough we address this with an annealing approach that uses post synthetic treatments, including baking the nanocrystals at temperatures above 1000 °C. The result is high quality YAG:Ce nanophosphors with tunable particle sizes below 20 nanometers, near unity quantum yields, and no clustering. Through Crystalight®, these properties open up new possibilities in advanced lighting and in mini LED and micro LED applications such as backlight displays for tablets and monitors, wearables and augmented reality, as well as high power LED systems for outdoor and automotive use.

Our advanced luminescent technologies are designed for a wide range of LED lighting applications, including indoor and outdoor lighting for retail, hospitality, architectural, and industrial environments, as well as advanced display technologies.
Through EuroLED®, our flagship luminescent technology, we enable high color quality (high CRI) without sacrificing efficiency thus supporting emerging technologies. EuroLED® improves light performance, stability, and energy efficiency, while remaining scalable for commercial production.
EuroLED® delivers improved efficiency and enhanced color quality compared to conventional LED phosphor solutions, addressing the traditional efficiency–color trade-off in warm white LEDs.
Compared to standard LED solutions, EuroLED® provides more consistent color over time and temperature and is designed to perform reliably in mid-to-high-power applications. This allows manufacturers to deliver brighter, more energy-efficient lighting without changing existing LED designs or production processes.
EuroLED® improves LED efficiency by increasing the amount of emitted visible light, without sacrificing color quality. Its advanced luminescent technology is designed to deliver high color rendering (CRI 80–95) while reducing the energy losses typically associated with warm white LEDs.
By optimizing how light is converted within the LED, EuroLED® enables higher lumens per watt, improved color stability, and reliable performance over time. This efficiency gain helps manufacturers meet performance targets without changing existing LED designs or production processes.
EuroLED® is designed for LED manufacturers and lighting solution providers seeking higher efficiency and improved color quality in warm white LED applications.
It is particularly suited for companies developing mid- to high-power LEDs for indoor and outdoor lighting, including general illumination, retail, hospitality, architectural, and industrial environments.
EuroLED® is ideal for manufacturers looking for a scalable, easy-to-integrate solution that enhances performance without requiring major changes to existing LED designs or manufacturing processes.
EuroLED® is fully compatible with standard LED manufacturing processes and can be integrated into existing LED packages and product platforms. Once incorporated at the LED component level, it can be used across a wide range of fixtures that share the same mechanical and electrical design as current LED solutions. EuroLED® is not a retrofit bulb or fixture, but a phosphor technology integrated by LED manufacturers into their products. This approach enables performance upgrades while minimizing development risk and time to market.
