Shanghai to build the world's largest LED Research Center

The opening ceremony of the World Expo piece 300 meters long and 30 meters high, the world's largest outdoor LED display, not only to give the audience a stunning visual feast, Shanghai is also a showcase of LED technology. World Expo Shanghai perception Shanghai interview yesterday visited the Expo Park LED industry development.

Economic and Information Technology Commission of Shanghai electronic information industry department in charge, at present, our country has been included in the semiconductor LED lighting in the long-term technology development plan, introduced in September 2009 to promote the "Shanghai electronic information manufacturing industry of high-tech industry action plan" also clearly LED as a new display development in key areas. Shanghai as one of the national semiconductor lighting project industrialization base, has been basically established a relatively complete epitaxial wafer production, chip preparation, packaging, integrated application of LED industry chain, especially at both ends of industry chain extension, namely upstream of the LED chip and the downstream application link has certain advantages.

To provide a broad platform embodies the World Expo LED technology. World Expo opening ceremony of the main venue of the stage background, Chinese Pavilion, pavilion hexahedron box and oil Museum wall are LED full color display. According to preliminary calculations, a total of 1 billion 30 million LED chips were used in the Expo site, and about of the indoor lighting source in the Expo site was LED.

Expo LED these "masterpiece" mostly from Shanghai before hand. Founded in 1993, Shanghai think twice is the largest professional manufacturer of LED display and lighting products, the main products are lighting and display, the LED display products have reached the domestic first, the international advanced level. The company for 16 consecutive years was identified as high-tech enterprises, so far has applied for more than 118 patents at home and abroad, of which patents granted in, since 2002, the company's annual sales increased by an average of 30%. It is reported that the next step will be to build the world's largest LED application research center.
