LED cycle one week stocktaking: big factories are speeding up, and technology research is becoming "humanized".

[big coffee trends]

This week, the LED circles in the mainland showed a more peaceful atmosphere. On the contrary, foreign manufacturers and manufacturers in Taiwan accelerated their efforts to win the relevant market share with their own strategies. Samsung has grabbed QLED and grabbed Micro LED, Japan has expanded its production and built factories, Current has won a large project of LED plant lighting, and Taiwan factory has fully attacked the European and American automotive lighting market. Online, Jun feels that these messages seem to send a signal: the niche market has entered a hot rush stage, first come first served. In addition, GE reorganization finally entered Olexander.

Samsung adopts QLED, Micro LED "double track" business strategy, The Wall volume production in the second half year.

Samsung Electronics Co., 22, said that in order to meet the global demand for large scale TV, the "dual track" business strategy will be adopted to produce QLED and Micro LED.

In addition, Han Jong-hee, President of Samsung, said that The Wall will start mass production in September, and next year will also launch a thinner version, from 80mm of The Wall to 30mm, aiming at high-order home market, but the price will not make consumers unable to afford it.

GE business restructuring is coming to an end. The US lighting business will be signed in the near future.

According to "Japan economic news" reported on July 23rd, the General Electric (GE) business restructuring has entered the final stage. On July 20th, local time announced that it would withdraw from ancestral lighting business in 2018. In the 7 main businesses of medical devices and transportation, 4 will be split and sold, and the business will be concentrated in 3 sectors: electric power, aviation and renewable energy. Ge will bid farewell to the past comprehensive business model as a "Simple GE" light up.

Japan Ya Hua intends to invest 16 billion yen to build a factory to expand the capacity of LED application products.

The 25 day press release announced that the demand for LED for lighting and backlight modules will continue to be strong, and the LED will be extended to automotive, industrial machines and other fields. The market will be further expanded in the future. Therefore, the resolution will build new factories and expand the capacity of LED application products in the factory area of Naruto factory (Ming Ming City), Tokushima. In order to maintain the top market share in the LED market.

The new plant will start construction in August 2018 and is expected to be completed in May 31, 2020. The total investment will be estimated at about 16 billion yen. After completion of production, it is estimated that the LED capacity of the Naruto plant will be expanded to about 2 times that of the current market.

Current rush to win the attack and get the LED plant lighting project again.

Lighting manufacturer Current has recently stepped into the plant lighting market. In addition to working with two British and Canadian manufacturers, installing LED lighting on farms to increase production, a flower factory manufacturer in Utah has chosen Current's lighting scheme to increase flower production.

DLP technology to import headlights system, boosting the rush to enter the automotive LED market.

Analogous to IC big plant TI (Ti) announced that shipment of digital light processing (DLP) headlights will start in the second half of the year. It is hoped that the initiative adjustment headlamp system (ADB) technology for the future high level market will be expected to go to DLP. The legal person is optimistic that the original LED and laser light source lighting market will be expected to be vacant. If we want to cut into the LED drive IC plant, we hope to win the mainstream automobile market with large market scale.

Friends: Micro LED is relatively ahead, and Mini LED products are on sale in the second half of the year.

On the 26 day, friends held a law meeting, the legal person concerned about the development of new technology products, chairman Peng Shuanglang stressed that Micro LED is currently in a leading position and is stepping up its pace in the hope of getting more business opportunities. But it also admitted that it is still unable to mass production. As for the Mini LED part, general manager Cai Guo pointed out that it is expected to introduce electric competition supervisor in the second half of the year. Visual or electric pen products.

In order to avoid price competition, Taiwanese manufacturers attack the European and American LED market.

There are huge potential business opportunities in mainland China. According to LEDinside's latest report, China's output value of LED headlights is estimated to reach US $1 billion 210 million in 2022, but after the rise of Hongli Zhi Hui, poly solar photovoltaic and Guoxing optoelectronics, the LED plant in Taiwan area, edu Sen, Lian Jia photoelectric and 100 million optoelectronics. In order to avoid price cut competition, we cut into the European and American car factory supply chain to provide LED vehicle lighting products.

[technology show, patent infringement]

Recently, LED technology has been constantly breaking through, and there are good news in the field of technology research. Most of these new technologies are related to people's influence, indicating that LED technology is becoming more and more "humanized". In addition, about UV LED technology, a patent infringement occurred this week, Ca.

Optical wave improves cochlear implant, device design or Micro LED technology.

Under the guidance of Tobias Moser, a professor of hearing neuroscience at the University of Canton, Germany, researchers will improve with light, hoping to break through the limitations of the existing cochlear implant. The Moser team used optical genetics technology (Optogenetics) to replace electrodes with light. Photogenetics is usually used in animal research. It stimulates genes to produce photosensitive proteins into neurons and stimulates neurons through light.

At present, the research team uses only one light wave, and the next step will be to develop a device that can produce multiple light waves. The device may be designed to use Micro LED array or waveguide technology to guide the light generated by optical fibers.

KAUST university develops nano AlGaN light-emitting device to enhance UV LED efficiency.

Recently, the KAUST research team in Saudi Arabia has developed a AlGaN nano luminescent device. The researchers used the graded index distribution limiting structure layer (GRINSCH) device to produce nanoscale GRINSCH diodes. The researchers expect to be able to be applied to nano high efficiency UV LED devices in the future, such as lasers, light sensors, amplitude modulators and integrated optical device.

LED masks can detect air pollution, and remind them to change the color of light in real time.

Air pollution in London is serious. Statistics show that the number of deaths per year is 9400. In order to highlight the seriousness of air pollution, a pedal driver Greg McNevin designed a LED mask, hoping to arouse public concern about air pollution issues.

The LED light mask is equipped with sensors, operates with the AirBeam air monitoring system, and connects to the AirCasting website through Bluetooth. It can change the color in real time according to the air pollution.

With French manufacturers, Swiss graduate student designed Lifi lamp.

Alexandre Picciotto, a graduate student at Lausanne State College of Arts (ECAL), worked in partnership with French wireless optical communications (Li-Fi) Oledcomm to design a Li-Fi desk lamp for libraries, which was able to transmit files through visible light to devices with encrypted software. The Li-Fi lamp is made of aluminum and distributed evenly with Plexiglass Satinice diffuser. Each group of lamps has 4 transmission hotspots.

LG Innotek filed a UV LED patent infringement lawsuit against a US company.

Recently, LG Innotek (LG) has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the UV (Ultra Violet rays, UV) Nail Dryer (Nail Dryer) manufacturing enterprise, and began to strengthen the protection of UV LED technology.
