The original version of this Article contained typographical errors in the title, where:

“Synthesis of Sr2Si5N8: Ce3+ phosphors for white LEDs via an efficient chemical deposition”.

now reads:

“Synthesis of Sr2Si5N8: Ce3+ phosphors for white LEDs via efficient chemical vapor deposition”.

This has now been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of this Article.
