Green lighting industry will have "Wuxi core"

According to the reporter, in July 21st, Wuxi LAN-STAR Electronics Co., Ltd. and the company's cooperation in Huajing led high-end chip production line began trial production. The production line put into operation, to fill our country in the high brightness, high power LED epitaxial chip independent research and development, large-scale production of blank space. This also means that China LED green lighting industry will have "Wuxi core".

A sapphire epitaxial film, down from the production line, processed into 1000 "need to be able to see the magnifying glass" chip. Do not look down upon this small chip, each chip can emit 1 watts of light, a piece of epitaxial film of 2 inches into chips, equivalent to the 10 Street lamps. Chairman of LAN-STAR, LED lighting expert Dr. Wu Jun introduction, LED's technical content of 80% from epitaxial wafers and chips. But these two key areas of core technology has long been monopolized by foreign countries. Today, mastered the core technology of LAN-STAR, with a strong capital of the powerful combination of Hua Hua, the final 80% of the link to achieve independent production.

In May 2006, Jiangsu as the first LED company, LAN-STAR settled in Wuxi, it has received a high degree of attention and strong support of Wuxi city and Beitang District, independent research and development, enterprises to enter the LED epitaxial wafer and chip production. The leader of Dr. Wu Jun and Dr. Zhu Jintian are high-end talent international LED industry, one for R & D and production of a wafer, responsible for chip production technology, two per capita in the United States well-known enterprises have experienced R & D and production management in more than and 10 years.

It is reported that this LED high-end chip production line put into operation, the initial annual production of the chip size will reach 120 million, to achieve sales of $180 million. LED this green lighting industry whirlwind in recent years, the rapid rise in the world. Some experts predict that the future of LED lighting market size will reach hundreds of billions of dollars. Aiming at the emerging industry, Wuxi formally established Wuxi optoelectronics new materials science and Technology Park in Beitang District, drive LED industry chain to LAN-STAR and other enterprises, many enterprises have been "locked" to discuss cooperation with LAN-STAR, a venture capital enterprise to invest 50 million yuan, to promote its listing.
