A white-light emitting device comprising a first PRS-LED and a second
PRS-LED. The first PRS-LED has a primary light source to emit blue light
and a secondary light source to emit red light responsive to the blue
light; and the second PRS-LED has a primary light source to emit green
light and a secondary light source for emitting red light responsive to
the green light. Each of the primary light sources is made from an InGaN
layer disposed between a p-type GaN layer and an n-type GaN layer. The
secondary light sources are made from AlGaInP. The primary light source
and the secondary light source can be disposed on opposite sides of a
sapphire substrate. Alternatively, the second light source is disposed on
the n-type GaN layer of the primary light source. The second light
sources may comprise micro-rods of AlGaInP of same or different
compositions.
