General-purpose lighting needs white light. LEDs emit light in a very narrow band of wavelengths, emitting light of a color characteristic of the energy [[bandgap]] of the [[semiconductor]] material used to make the LED. To emit white light from LEDs requires either mixing light from red, green, and blue LEDs, or using a [[phosphor]] to convert some of the light to other colors.
