Abstract

The invention provides a light emitting diode device comprising a light emitting diode arranged on a substrate and a wavelength converting element. The wavelength converting element contains as a luminescent material a Mn-activated fluoride compound having a garnet-type crystal structure. The Mn-activated fluoride compound preferably answers the general formula {A}[BMnMg](Li)FO, in which formula A stands for at least one element selected from the series consisting of Naand Kand B stands for at least one element selected from the series consisting of Al, B, Sc, Fe, Cr, Tiand In, and in which formula x ranges between 0.02 and 0.2, y ranges between 0.0 (and incl. 0.0) and 0.4 and d ranges between 0 (and incl. 0) and 1. Said compound is most preferably {Na}[AlMnMg](Li)FO.
