Feb. 15, 2013 - Regular News 
Greetings!

Welcome!

The news from the past two weeks in the fields of LED and OLED lighting can be found below.
 
We would also like to announce that a strategic cooperation has been made between Luger Research e.U. / LED professional and Assodel/ Tecnoimprese.  
Assodel, the Italian Association of Electronic Suppliers, brings together suppliers of components, machinery and electronic subsystems and promotes the activities of electronic industrial and trade related services. Assodel is the institutional point of reference for suppliers of electronics and, more generally, to what in Italy is the Electronics Trade. Its business is to inform and train all those involved in providing electronic technological development in the country.
Established in 1983, the association now has more than 200 members representing 95% of the components suppliers in Italy.
 
Don't forget that today is the official deadline for submitting your paper if you want it to be considered for the 3rd LED professional Symposium +Expo, in Austria - see www.LpS2013.com.


Yours Sincerely,

 

Siegfried Luger

Obtaining the Highest Candle Beam Power for Spotlights

webinar-lumileds       

Lumen density in the LED source is very significant in final design. Obtaining Center Beam Candle Power is a goal in high quality applications including retail and architectural lighting. High Power LEDs are the perfect solution to creating high lumen intensity from a very small light emitting source. Creating a very high lumen per mm square enables the highest center beam candle power in a system. Where other COB's need ~35-35mm for high lumen packages, LUXEON S5000 can achieve 8000 lumens in a Light Emitting Surface of just 17mm. Creating great spotlights has never been easier.

New Atomic Layer Deposition Process for Nitride LED Reflector Structures

Schematic diagram of LED with backside reflector composed of TiO2/Al2O3 DBR and Al mirror grown on backside of PSS. Insets: SEM images of fabricated DBR and PSS (Figure 1). LOP of fabricated LEDs versus injection current(a). Inset: electroluminescence spectra. Photographs of LEDs (b and c) with and without backside reflector in operating state, respectively (Figure 2) Although some groups have developed DBRs for increasing output power of LEDs before, this approach is claimed as the first proposal and demonstration of DBRs grown using ALD rather than electron-beam (EB) evaporation. The advantages of ALD over EB evaporation include better thickness uniformity over large-diameter substrates and thickness control at the atomic level. Read more »
