CREE 231 lm/W LED breakthrough LED light efficiency record

LED lighting market leader CREE Inc. (Nasdaq:CREE) announced the day before, the white power LED light effect re break the record industry, up to 231 lm/W. This record is another major breakthrough in the field of CREE made, but also further shows that CREE's relentless innovation to promote the continuous development of the field of LED lighting determination.

CREE report shows that 231 lm/W LED light effect result is a test in the use of single chip devices, 4500K standard color temperature and room temperature, under the current conditions of the 350mA.

One of the, founder of CREE advanced Optoelectronics Division Director John Edmond said: "a few years ago, 200lm/W also once considered lighting LED lighting effect theory of the highest value, but in 2010 we will achieve a breakthrough in this technology, the light efficiency is increased to 231 lm/W now. Constant reform and innovation of our laboratory is to make the CREE XLamp LED series of products can continue to maintain a solid foundation for market leadership, but also the source of our leading LED lighting innovation innovation. "The integration of R & D results for all the advanced characteristics of technology in the CREE XLamp white LED. CREE believes that high-performance LED can not only achieve new LED applications, but also reduce the cost of existing LED solutions.

Although the result is not used in the production of CREE LED products, but CREE will continue to focus on the development of high performance LED products, and strive to continue to lead the industry with the industry's most extensive product series.
