Cree authorized just produced white LED

The authorization statement for white LED buyers to eliminate doubts just in Chinese China's global operations will surge in the development and production of light-emitting diode (LED) over 10 years of experience in the development and production of LED parts business cotco International Trade Co. Ltd. and solid-state lighting market leading parts of America Cree, Inc (NASDAQ: CREE) today announced that Cree authorized China just using Cree patented technology to produce white light LED. This authorization statement was announced earlier in May to protect white LED buyers will not violate the potential patent regulations, so that access to these increasingly common LED products easier.

White LED is seen as a major competitor in solid-state lighting technology, is expected to eventually replace the traditional light bulbs and are widely used in Yu Baiguang lighting applications. In the past, due to the complexity of patent legislation using Cree materials involved, often make the white LED by buyers. This partnership allows buyers to exempt from the patent or litigation brought about by the doubts and confidence in the purchase of white LED. Since the implementation of this agreement, China's sales of white light LED surge, as analysts predict that as global demand continues to grow, LED sales will continue to rise, especially from Chinese manufacturers procurement.

China is the first in Asia to obtain authorization to use Cree nitride LEDs inGaN and patented phosphor conversion technology, one of several companies. Therefore, white LED by the Chinese are just the production of the patent number and "Powered by Cree".

Shi Yucan, general manager of China International, said: "China and Cree through the cooperation of each other, to bring more white LED into the market to take an important step forward. Agreement so that China's new white LED customers do not have to worry about breaking the patent, for them to bring real-time benefits. He added: "the agreement will also enhance the industry's emphasis on intellectual property rights, will help increase sales of white LED applications. "

White LED has become the focus of research and development of solid state lighting, because of its energy saving and durable characteristics, it is expected that the white LED will replace the traditional light bulb. According to research firm Strategies in Light reported $3 billion 700 million in super high brightness LED market, white LED accounted for half, about 75% growth from the white LED backlight application in full-color display, but also a considerable growth in the application of the backlight keyboard. To sum up, according to the Strategies Unlimited is expected, ultra high brightness LED market to 2009 will double to an estimated $7 billion.

Strategies Unlimited Optoelectronics in Mountain View, Calif. director Dr. Robert Steele believes that this agreement is an important step in the reform of the LED industry in. He said: "through the agreement between China and Cree, we can see that the company is showing that they have no infringement. He added: "the current white LED is seen as an important element of the market, the agreement also has a positive impact on both sides. "
