The topology of production and research: in 2009 the LED industry is still strong

The topology Research Institute (TRI) on 2009 LED application trends, that decline LGP technology breakthrough plus, will promote the increasing market penetration of LED backlight module. For example, in Acer and DELL (DELl) announced in 2009 will be a substantial use of LED backlight module, estimated in 2009 the global LED NB penetration will jump from 10% in 2008 to 28%, Netbook LED backlight module penetration has reached more than 100%.

The use of LCD LED backlight module, although the maximum size has reached 46 inches, but the technology is still a bottleneck in the short term is still difficult to mass production in the TV. In addition, the global mobile phone shipments in 2009 as expected, and the growth of China's cottage mobile phone remains to be seen and other factors, the market value of the mobile phone LED backlight module may also gradually decline.

The extension includes the industry research institute researcher Wei Bader said, Taiwan Japan manufacturers price competition led to decline of white LED 15~25%, plus LED backlight module NB, Netbook products soared in permeability, and large-scale LED lighting market driven by China and outdoor advertising billboards, is expected to stimulate the global LED production value in 2009 substantial growth of 15.7%, a record the record of $8 billion 677 million; Taiwan LED output value will reach $2 billion 314 million, the growth rate of 18.24% is better than the performance of the world. Faced with the challenges of Chinese LED industry, group management and strategic alliances will be the key to the stable market position of Taiwan industry in 2009.

White light LED with high luminous efficiency and high brightness, is regarded as an important indicator of LED into the field of lighting, the application of the increasingly wide range. Baird Wei pointed out that in 2009 the white light LED is influenced by the price strategy of Japanese maker Nichia, coupled with the 2008 LED overall market white LED ASP prediction of pile up in excess of requirement, from $0.16 in 2008 fell to $0.14 in 2009. Although the estimated white LED may fall 15%~25%, however, the decline in ASP will help improve market demand, ease the pressure of oversupply.

On the other hand, opened by the Beijing Olympics in 2008 LED new application continues to have a fever, and the 2010 Shanghai World Expo and Guangzhou Asian Games and 2011 Shenzhen World University Games coming soon, LED large billboards, driven by the architectural landscape lighting should be used in business, is also the focus of concern of the LED industry in 2009. LED road lighting market, in addition to the international exhibition of fuel, government procurement and implementation of large-scale LED road lighting demonstration project, and LED street lighting specifications have been finalized, the topology prediction of the 2009 global LED lamp market penetration will exceed 1%, entered a rapid growth period began.
