High Power LED Components and
Light Systems
Abstract:
High
power LED heralded the third Semiconductor Revolution by providing over 90%
lighting energy savings with zero pollution. It is rapidly adopted by the
lighting industries in fields like flashlights, mining lights, street
lights, commercial lights, Auto lights, and TV backlights, etc. with over
$60B annual markets. This talk with give a picture of the LED development
history, the current LED market trends, and technology advances. Those who
are interested in returning to China will also find the talk interesting.
