  • the phosphor substrate herein includes a phosphor that absorbs blue light and emits red light, and a phosphor that absorbs blue light and emits green light. Blue light is displayed by light transmitted through the blue color filter, but since the light source light is originally blue, there is almost no loss of light in the blue color filter.
