The six key words LED international market

Key words: battleground

With the promotion of LED lighting products and the decline in prices, in 2015 the rapid rise in LED lighting penetration. Each LED manufacturers have to look to emerging markets. The Southeast Asian region as the ASEAN was established, and China Belt and Road Initiative strategy to drive the basic construction of a large number of investment, so the LED lighting market demand of local market attention.

According to LEDinside estimates, in 2014 the size of the LED lighting market in Southeast Asia reached $1 billion 100 million. 2015 LED market outlook is expected to be stable and sustainable development. Therefore, in 2015 the size of the LED lighting market in Southeast Asia will reach $1 billion 500 million, an annual increase of up to 36%. Southeast Asian countries, emerging Thailand lighting market potential. According to LEDinside assessment, in 2015 the Thailand LED lighting market value has reached $330 million.

Key words: Panasonic Reengineering

Japanese media reports, the Panasonic Corp is currently the second round of restructuring, plans to shut down two lighting equipment manufacturing plant in Japan before the end of September. Panasonic will focus on lighting, batteries and other six low rate of business transformation.

Panasonic lighting systems subsidiary of the two factories are located in Osaka and Tokyo, about 250 employees will be transported to other factories. After the two factories closed, production will be transferred to the nearby city of Victoria and the city of Dan factory. Panasonic will invest 1 billion yen ($8 million 180 thousand) for the LGA factory and factory automation production tamba. Panasonic plans to increase the capacity of the 30% plants, and thus improve the overall capacity of Panasonic lighting equipment.

Panasonic also decided LED lighting equipment factory in Indonesia closed before the end of October this year, all future lighting products sales in Japan will be in the domestic production.

Keywords: rare earth phosphor

Researchers in the United States are developing a technology based on mixed phosphorus, which claims that the technology can make LED's life longer, more efficient and cost less. They combined with ordinary metal rich soil and organic light-emitting molecules to produce controllable LED white phosphor. By changing the metal and organic components, the researchers can systematically adjust the color of the phosphor to the most acceptable area of the human eye visible spectrum. They also continue to test and develop other rare earth based LED phosphors with different metals and organic compounds.

The results of experiments on some materials show that the team can reduce the cost of LED 90% by using the present method. They have applied for U.S. patents and are exploring the possibility of production.

The project is funded by the National Science Foundation and the Rutgers University offers. At present, it has been funded by the National Institute of energy.

Keywords: new quantum dot technology

Quantum dots have had a wide range of commercial impact on LED technology, and now, the focus of the research is to improve the manufacturing process and increase profits. According to the American Institute of electrical and electronic engineers "spectrum" magazine website reported that researchers at the Oregon State University recently demonstrated a new quantum dot manufacturing technology, can not only ensure made quantum dot size and shape can be more precise consistent from beginning to end, the color control, may mean that the new era of the advent of LED lighting.

The team used a chemical reactor called "continuous flow". The chemical is continuously put into the reactor and produces continuous LED illumination. At the same time, they use microwave to heat the reagent, which solves the problem of how to control the temperature accurately in the chemical reaction.

The researchers said that the quantum dots produced by this method can be used in optics, electronics, biomedical and other fields to provide another cheap option.

Keywords: lower 2/3

Pioneer MITSUBISHI chemical (Mitsubishi Chemical), recently announced, has developed a manufacturing cost can be lowered to the level below about 1/3, and can change the light intensity / color / color OLED lighting dimming type panel products, and is expected to yield the goods in early 2016.

According to the release, the development of the product has 92 MMX 92mm, 69mmx66mm and 55mmx50mm and other three models, the maximum brightness of 2000cd/ m2, color temperature of 3000-5000K, thickness of 1.08mm.

Pioneer and MITSUBISHI chemical in 2012 began shipping "vacuum evaporation type" OLED lighting module (panel), after the start of production use of light-emitting layer coating type production technology, low manufacturing cost of the OLED lighting module in 2014.

The data show that the global OLED market is expected to reach $2020 by the end of 1 billion 400 million.

OLED in order to replace the LED spot light spot light source, the light is not dazzling glare, do not need hood barrier, but also folding bending, more widely used. In addition to Pioneer/ MITSUBISHI chemical, OLED lighting panel factory also includes Konica Minolta, PHILPS (Philips), DuPont (DuPont), etc..

Keywords: intelligent car lock

Australian designers to design a built-in LED lights bicycle lock Vivid Lock, it can improve the safety of the rider.

Highlight Vivid Lock is the 60 LED lights, the white red, with 9 modes, flicker frequency and energy-saving settings. The lighting mode is controlled by a mini waterproof controller on the LED belt.
