The lighting industry has been buzzing with news of solid-state light source advancements for several years. As one light-emitting diode (LED) lighting fixture manufacturer puts it, flat printed ...

As cool as lasers are, so far there are precious few commercially available display devices available that use them. That may change with this new green semiconductor laser diode announced by Sony and ...

In a development that will be welcomed by those awaiting the advent of high-brightness pico-projectors, Germany’s Osram Opto Semiconductors (Osram OS) has launched its first diode lasers to emit ...

Light can be produced and/or controlled electronically in a number of ways. Among the widely used of all the different types of semiconductor diodes are the Light Emitting Diodes or LEDs. It is a PN ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. LEDs are the most efficient way to turn an electric current into illumination. When a current flows through a diode in the forward ...
