Application of new ecological change gradually LED

Light emitting diode (LED) applications, from the traditional lights turn into the car, the large size of the screen backlight market, has sales of LED ecological changes, the system terminal industry should not only LED light source, LED industry to provide customized and modular products will become the ability to win the downstream industry new orders. In this regard, Wei Zhihong, general manager of research and crystal optoelectronics believes that the vertical integration of the LED industry in 2006 or upstream and downstream strategic alliance development, will become a new wave of Taiwan LED industry.

2005 Taiwan LED factory after the yuan arsenic (3214) and Lianqun, crystal electric (2448) and the League of Nations (2422) and the level of the whole case, have single LED factory production scale, have to contend with international companies, the ability to actively prepare for in addition, should seek to market new orders in 2006 mobile phone screen, 7 inch screen backlight, car, everybody in the fourth quarter, expansion plans have also started a new wave.

The mobile phone screen backlight, 7 inch screen backlight and automotive market development, Taiwan factory, high power LED shipments are also expected to gradually rise, and in Taiwan the first LED manufacturers, prediction of high power LED in 2006 the proportion of revenues, will be available by 2005 5%, pull up about 2006 to nearly 20%, and the estimated 2007 still have good growth appear.

However, Wei Zhihong said that Taiwan's LED industry have the ability to enter the car, the large size of the screen backlight market, this type of customer requirements, not only is the pure LED product supply to LED manufacturers, can together with customers into the design, while providing customized modular products. In order to become the winner of the market.

As a result, the LED grain factory to grasp the pathway, closer to the customer understand the product specifications and customer requirements, Taiwan line LED factory through level integration seems to have little significance, prediction of LED industry vertical integration or strategic alliance into a new trend.

He said that for example, SONY days before the launch of the new LED backlight notebook computer, no doubt for the LED industry to open another business door, but on the panel or the backlight module industry, the demand is not a single LED, but need Light Bar modular products, while in the past this market was grain factory it is not familiar with, so how to establish the related pathways through vertical cooperation, will become inevitable.

However, he also pointed out that once the Taiwan LED factory to cross downstream vertical integration or strategic alliance, how to choose partners, or the introduction of international technical team will be very important, otherwise if only is still limited in Taiwan local spin, the essential effects can be added.
