In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities

Recently, China government promoted LED solid state lighting and listed Beijing as a level-one city for demonstration. Meanwhile, BOE's 8G plant scheduled to start mass production in 2011, LED backlight unit (BLU) demand from BOE was expected to surge. Additionally, Everlight was listed as one of BOE's backlighting suppliers. In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities, Everlight decided to set up a production plant in Beijing.

Market sources noted, Currently all LED Linear high bay light notebook products were LED backlit. BOE's overall LED demand from its 5G and 6G plants was expected to exceed one billion chips in 2011, and to over seven billion chips when BOE's advanced production lines came online in the future. If BOE's 8G line fully adopted LED backlighting, BOE would need the support of about 20 LED production lines, or five billion LED chips per year, and generate CNY10 billion (US$1.5 billion) worth of industry value.

The vertically-integrated manufacturer , Rubicon is opening a plant in Penang, Malaysia,to further demonstrate its led high bay light leadership role in the production of high quality, large diameter sapphire wafers.The Malaysia facility combined with Rubicon's new crystal growth facility in Batavia, IL have been established to deliver the sapphire capacity necessary to support the growing demand for LEDs in the consumer electronics and general lighting industries.

Entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs

The number and breadth of applications that require amber LEDs is tremendous,” said Frank Harder, VP of Product Marketing at Philips Lumileds. “Markets including automotive, entertainment, roadway, signaling, and many others use amber LEDs. With better efficiency and more light output, LUXEON Rebel PC amber makes it that much easier to reduce energy consumption with an environmentally friendly product.lamps to LEDs because they didn’t produce enough light and couldn’t operate effectively at higher temperatures. With the advances provided by LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, yellow traffic signals will be converted, warning lights and beacons on vehicles and obstructions will switch and entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs. numbers of amber LEDs. With LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, manufacturers will be able to use fewer LEDs and lower other component costs because of the improved light output and particularly the stable color over temperature, something that has been problematic for many ...
