Mar. 1, 2013 - Regular News 
Greetings!

Welcome!

LED and OLED lighting news from the past two weeks can be found below.
Don't miss the "Obtaining the Highest Candle Beam Power for Spotlights" webinar on March 6th at 5 p.m. CET; (check your time - click here).   

Yours Sincerely,

 

Siegfried Luger

Publisher - LED professional

Announcement - Webinar: March 6, 2013 - 5 PM CET

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.

menthor_graphics_led-professional_newsletter Besides their electrical properties, the optical parameters of LEDs also depend on junction temperature. For this reason thermal characterization and thermal management play an important role in case of power LEDs, necessitating both physical measurements and simulation tools. The focus of this paper is a combined electrical, thermal and optical characterization of power LED assemblies.

KIT Demonstrates Light from Silicon Nanocrystal LEDs

Liquid-processed SiLEDs: By changing the size of the silicon nanocrystals, color of the light emitted can be varied. (Photo: F. Maier-Flaig, KIT/LTI) ilicon nanocrystals have a size of a few nanometers and possess a high luminous potential. Scientists of KIT and the University of Toronto/Canada have now succeeded in manufacturing silicon-based light-emitting diodes (SiLEDs). They are free of heavy metals and can emit light in various colors. The team of chemists, materials researchers, nanoscientists, and opto-electronic experts presents its development in the "Nano Letters" journal. Read more »

Organic Electronics - How To Make Contact Between Carbon Compounds and Metals

Upon contact between the oxygen atoms protruding from the backbone and the metal, the molecules' internal structure changed in such a way that they lost their semiconducting properties and instead adopted the metallic properties of the surface. (Visualisation: Georg Heimel /HU Berlin) Organic electronics has already hit the market in smartphone displays and holds great promise for future applications like flexible electroluminescent foils (a potential replacement for conventional light bulbs) or solar cells that convert sunlight to electricity.
A reoccurring problem in this technology is to establish good electrical contact between the active organic layer and metal electrodes. Organic molecules are frequently used also for this purpose. Until now, however, it was ... Read more »
