Zusammenfassung:Thioaluminate phosphor particles having a coating comprising or consisting essentially of a nitride, and methods for making such phosphor particles, are disclosed. Phosphor-converted light emitting diodes may comprise such coated phosphor particles. The nitride coatings on the thioaluminate phosphor particles provide a significantly improved barrier to water compared, to an aluminum oxide coating, and extend the operational lifetime of such a phosphor-converted light emitting diode.
