Abstract
The lighting industry is largely revolutionized with the advent of Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The white light phosphors are being designed with an aim to get better colour stability. The process involved in the synthesis should be easy applicable to large scale as well. This chapter summarizes extensively explored popular classes of organic–inorganic hybrid phosphors. These include: coordination compounds obtained from small organic molecules, organically coated nanoparticles, hybrid-carbon phosphors, organic polymer-based hybrids. The limitations of currently used phosphors for white-light emission and the possible remedies are discussed.
