Shanghai semiconductor industry has a huge potential for large-scale application of semiconductor lighting

8, international led industrial technology exhibition and forum held in Shanghai New International Expo center. Semiconductor lighting (LED) experts pointed out that, with the large-scale application of the technology in Shanghai, World Expo, the next 5 years, China's LED industry is expected to enter the rapid development period.

Semiconductor lighting is widely known as the fourth generation light source, compared with the traditional lighting technology, with low energy consumption, long life, and other advantages, can be described in this year's Shanghai World Expo shine. The technology is not only widely used in the Expo "one axis and four Pavilions", but also in the park's 80% night lighting LED lighting. The total amount of 1 billion 3 million LED chips, making the world's largest LED Expo area.

"We believe that through large-scale display of World Expo, can let more people know about LED," Dr. Yang Weiqiao, assistant director of the Shanghai semiconductor lighting Engineering Research Center said, "World Expo ecohome" case is the only completely using LED lighting Expo pavilion, this demonstration shows that LED can be applied to daily life.

The exhibition and forum hosted by the Shanghai Municipal Science and technology commission. Exhibition covers the LED industry, technology and applications, and other fields, the exhibition area of 35 thousand square meters, more than 450 exhibitors. LED industry forum has attracted more than 30 world-renowned experts, including Nakamura Shuji, the father of blue light, business representatives.

China national semiconductor lighting industry alliance Secretary General Wu Ling believes that due to China is traditional lighting equipment manufacturing power, at the same time Chinese government attaches great importance to energy-saving emission reduction, so she believes in the Chinese LED lighting industry has great potential.

According to Yang Weiqiao introduction, 12th Five-Year period (2011 to 2015), Shanghai will focus on the localization of LED chip technology, and is committed to improving the ability to develop application equipment.
