Breaking the international monopoly Shanghai white LED industry base

"Daily economic news" yesterday from Mao Lun photoelectric technology (Shanghai) Company Limited was informed that the so-called human after Edison invented the incandescent light source -- the next generation of white LED industry base will be at the end of August this year in Shanghai in early September started, the initial monthly production capacity of up to 1 million. Behind the Mao Lun technology heavily at the white LED, is one of the core technologies with white LED - fluorescent powder. It is understood that the price of a blue chip LED is $0.8, and through the involvement of phosphors, a white light LED price will reach $2.5. The patent is only in Japan, Germany OSRAM master Nichia photoelectron hands of a few companies at present, so the market price and the supply of white LED completely dictate. Due to Mao Lun technology has won the "Russian ten meritorious scientist" title of Dr. Sosin Namm and 20 related experts team, after years of development, currently in the field of phosphor breakthrough, the invention patent applications are in Taiwan, mainland China and the United States Chinese China. Mao Lun technology chairman Luo Weihong on LED is very optimistic about the prospects. He calculated an account: take the white LED and the traditional incandescent tungsten bulbs and fluorescent lamps are compared, is expected in 2010 China's electricity consumption will reach 2 trillion and 700 billion degrees, lighting power consumption of more than 300 billion degrees. Because of the same brightness semiconductor lamp power consumption is only 1/10 of incandescent lamp, as long as there is a 1/3 incandescent lamp replaced by semiconductor light, every year will be able to save nearly 100 billion of electricity, equivalent to a generating capacity of the Three Gorges project. However, the white LED market broke out also that day it into ordinary family. Luo Weihong said that currently restricting the development of the industry's two biggest factors, one is the protection of intellectual property rights: first, the price. At present, China's intellectual property protection environment is becoming more and more perfect, and the market price is also rapidly declining. For example, he said, 5 years ago, a white light LED price is $14, just a short period of 5 years has dropped to $2.5.
