LED products will trigger a world war lighting industry

China is a lighting industry, lighting industry is not a country, this is a heavy topic. About a lighting industry in 2010 will be "the war of the world". LED (light emitting diode) is the third generation of semiconductor lighting source after incandescent lamp and fluorescent lamp. Experts at home and abroad have predicted that semiconductor lighting will be one of the largest and most active high-tech industries in the twenty-first Century. With the advent of blue, green, white LED products, a battle to seize the commanding heights of the emerging industries of semiconductor lighting has started in the world. Revolutionary product GaN semiconductor light emitting diode (LED) as the third generation of semiconductor lighting. This fantastic product has a lot of advantages: (1) high light efficiency spectra of almost all concentrated in the visible light frequency, the efficiency can reach 80% ~ 90%, and light effect similar incandescent visible light efficiency is only 10% ~ 20%. (2) high quality light because no ultraviolet and infrared spectrum, there is no heat, no radiation, which belongs to the typical green lighting source. (3) low energy consumption single power generally 0.05 ~ 1W, through the cluster can be tailored to meet different needs, little waste. As a light source, under the same brightness power consumption is only 1 / 8 to 1 / 10. (4) long life fluxattenuation to 70% of the standard life expectancy is 100 thousand hours. A semiconductor light can be used under normal circumstances 50 years, even if the longevity of people, life will be used up to 2 lamps. (5) is reliable and durable notungsten wire glass and other easily damaged parts, abnormal scrap rate is very small, very low maintenance costs. (6) the application of flexible small volume, can flat package, easy to develop into a short thin products, make the specific applications of point line and plane in various forms. (7) safe working voltage between 1.5 ~ 5V, the operating current is between 20 ~ 70mA. (8) Recyclable green waste, no pollution, unlike fluorescent lamps containing mercury. (9) short response time frequent and high-frequency switching operation of occasions. Seductive huge "cake" according to the analysis data of an American market research company shows that in recent years, the world. (9) the market belongs to the development period, in 2001, sales of nearly $700 million. The company predicts that even the most conservative development of the 2009 world. LED product market to reach $4 billion 800 million in sales. U.S. Department of energy predicts that around 2010, the United States may save $35 billion due to the use of LED, the formation of a $50 billion market. At present, China's annual lighting consumption of more than 200 billion kwh, accounting for about 12% of the country's total electricity consumption. After replacing the traditional lamp, the semiconductor lamp can save nearly 100 billion kilowatt hours per year, more than three years after the completion of the Three Gorges power plant in 2008. Semiconductor lighting with its unparalleled advantages will become the history of lighting incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp after another qualitative leap. National government have moves eager to seize the commanding heights of to the third generation semiconductor gallium nitride based semiconductor lighting market will be formed, already let semiconductor company mouth drooling with greed. At present, the world to master the technology of semiconductor lighting semiconductor company and lamp manufacturers have already have established alliances, such as joint Hewlett-Packard Company of Japan Nichia and Germany SIEMENS company; American company, Germany's SIEMENS and Cray asling; America EMCORE Corporation and General Company jointly; GE, PHILPS, Rahm, the big three cooperation with semiconductor the company was founded in LED lighting business, the goal is to improve the luminous efficiency of LED to 8 times in 2010, the price is reduced by 99%. In that case, a set of brightness equivalent to 40W incandescent LED price of about $2. Not only big companies, but also governments. At present, the United States, Japan, European countries are established by the official project, budget and plan, the implementation of semiconductor lighting. Japan's twenty-first Century light plan, from 1998 to 2002 to spend 5 billion yen to implement white lighting, and plans to 2006, to complete the large-scale alternative to traditional semiconductor lighting lamp; the national semiconductor lighting plan of the United States is from 2000 to 2010, the plan will cost $500 million, by 2010, will replace 55% incandescent lamps of semiconductor lamp and fluorescent lamp; the rainbow project has been started in July 2000, the plan is used by the European Community grants to promote the semiconductor lighting. Semiconductor lighting industry is a promising emerging industries. To achieve the victory of this war, not only rely on the lighting company's R & D and manufacturing departments and relevant departments of the strong support, but also need to give more attention and support to developers and end users. In this war without smoke, we can only go ahead! And to walk in front of the world.
