The characteristics of an LED lighting system consisting of a commercial violet LED and a green phosphor based on CsPbBr nanocrystals are studied in the context of development of LED illumination sources with antibacterial effects but without harmful effects on human health. The internal efficiency of the nanocrystalline phosphor in a silicone compound was found to exceed 40%, dropping noticeably because of heating for an electric current of ~0.1 A (phosphor excitation intensity ~0.

An exact solution for the deformation of the laminated LCE plate under combined thermal and mechanical loads is derived by solving the three-dimensional (3D) equilibrium equations including heat conduction and thermoelastic theory. The validity of mathematical formula and computer programming is proved by convergence and comparison examples with finite element method (FEM).
