The next 10 years, laser lighting will replace LED lighting

Laser lighting technology is a world-class, disruptive new generation of lighting technology, and the impact of the industry will reach trillions of scale. "National people plan experts, Shenzhen City Light Industrial Technology Research Institute Dr. Li Yi through matchmaking, Nakamura Shuji introduced laser lighting laboratory settled in Shenzhen, Shenzhen in the field of laser illumination means among the world has taken a substantial step. In the future, the Nobel Prize winner led by the laboratory, will play the role of brain and think tanks in the process of laser lighting industry, become a treasure trove of technology and talent".

Laser lighting will replace LED

December 13, 2016, Shenzhen Institute of light industry technology and Nakamura Shuji laser lighting laboratory officially inaugurated in Shenzhen, Nanshan District. This is a company engaged in laser lighting and other industrial technology, committed to the industrialization of technology of private non enterprise units. Nobel Laureate in physics, blue LED and blue laser inventor professor Nakamura Shuji served as laboratory director, responsible for the laboratory led the formation and subsequent operations.

In the eyes of many experts, laser lighting will be the next outlet of the lighting industry. "The father of blue" Nakamura Shuji has publicly said: the next 10 years, laser lighting will replace LED lighting.

The efficiency of laser illumination is thousands of times of LED, which can not only increase the projection distance, but also improve the safety. In addition to lighting, laser display in the projector, digital cinema, television, stage lights, large screen splicing, automotive and other fields, will have a wide range of applications.

It is one of the original intention of the laboratory to develop the scientific research achievements and make it produce economic value and social value. The decision to introduce the professor and his team in the village, not only the value of its top research capabilities, as well as outstanding technical transformation.

Professor in the village had long served in the enterprise, leading enterprise technology research and development, but also set up their own company. He has a personal experience in the application and industrialization of science and technology. The background of this research and practice is appreciated by the municipal government and partners. Li Yi said that although laser lighting is still in the embryonic stage of technology, the industry chain is not mature, the technology is also facing many problems. But the forefront of science and technology achievements in the village laboratory, applied in Shenzhen, an important gathering place for the semiconductor industry, will have a huge industrial effect".

Laboratory will become the industry "brain"

Promote the industrialization of laser lighting cut into the mouth, will be locked in the automotive lighting headlamps. "Halogen lamp is very energy consuming, LED lamp brightness is not ideal enough, both energy-saving and brightness of the laser will be the best choice. Li Yi said that once the reduction of laser production costs, laser headlamps will quickly dominate the automotive lighting market.

The establishment of the laboratory in the village, will accelerate the generation of laser lighting as a representative of a new generation of lighting technology industry in Shenzhen, Shenzhen is expected to become the vanguard of the field of innovation in the field of laser light source.

Nakamura Shuji laser lighting laboratory core team led by Professor Nakamura personally, including the U.S. National Academy of Engineering (NAE) research backbone academician Steven Denbas, including many from the United States Silicon Valley, and attract a large number of local high-end R & D personnel, formed a strong international R & D team. Laboratory and the United States, Britain, Russia, Japan and other countries and regions, universities, research institutions to establish a wide range of cooperative relations.

Li Yi said, the next 3 to 5 years, Research Institute (Laboratory) professional personnel and supporting staff plans to introduce 50 to 100 optical, electronic, material, physics, mechanical design, precision manufacturing and other fields, to protect human resources supply project research and development, as well as reserve and training of talents of industrialization.

"Wide, introduction of talents, the laboratory built with international influence of the high-end R & D personnel training base and technology research base, promote the laser lighting technology application and development and research cooperation, and provide intellectual support for Shenzhen laser lighting industry. Li Yi describes the vision of the laboratory.
