Abstract
Disclosed is a light emitting device employing nanowire phosphors. The light emitting device comprises a light emitting diode for emitting light having a first wavelength with a main peak in an ultraviolet, blue or green wavelength range; and nanowire phosphors for converting at least a portion of light having the first wavelength emitted from the light emitting diode into light with a second wavelength longer than the first wavelength. Accordingly, since the nanowire phosphors are employed, it is possible to reduce manufacturing costs of the light emitting device and to reduce light loss due to non-radiative recombination.
