LED packing business is estimated to grow further

According to Unity executives, as LED backlight is gradually replacing CCFLs, the LED TV penetration rate is expected to surge to 65~70% this year from 40% of last year. It is estimated that the LED TVs will amount for 80% of total TV shipments by the end of 2012, sharply up from 50% seen in the beginning of this year.

In addition, aside from South Korean TV manufacturers, Taiwanese and Chinese TV manufacturers also moved to launch new products in Q2 of 2012, and will launch direct-type TV products with energy saving functions sometime in Q3. As a result, Unity executives thought that as China’s price subsidy policy is expected to boost the LED TV sales there, the company’s LED packing business is estimated to grow further.

 Chantal Arena, vice president and general manager of Soitec Phoenix Labs, where the HVPE technology was developed, said, "Our strategy was to use production-proven silicon epitaxy equipment features and add our innovative gallium source and delivery system to create a high productivity HVPE equipment. We then successfully developed high growth rate processes that combined with our low cost precursor leads to a more cost effective GaN template than the ones produced by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE)."

"Silian is excited to work with Soitec and adopt its HVPE technology," said David Reid, COO of Silian. "With our extensive sapphire substrate manufacturing expansion activities in China, we are very well positioned to take advantage of this opportunity and offer these high quality templates in a cost effective manner to our sapphire substrate customers."

while all of hit new record quarterly highs

As a result, to increase greenhouse yields and decrease producers' energy costs, they will team up with Rutgers University, the University of Arizona, Michigan State University, and Orbital Technologies Corp. on the four-year project to improve and evaluate LED lighting for greenhouse use, according to Cary Mitchell, a professor of horticulture and project director for the grant. Total sales from January through September of 2010 hit NT$92.88 billion, up 35% YoY. Meanwhile, operating profit and net profit reached NT$5.67 billion and NT$6.8 billion respectively, with accumulated EPS of NT$3.05 increasing a remarkable 50% YoY. In 3Q10, The Company’s gross margin and operating margin reached 13.9% and 6.7%, up 0.9% and 0.4% QoQ, respectively.

the adoption of energy-efficient LED lighting across their campuses

Nuventix SynJet coolers are available now and already providing silent operation, long life, and optimal cooling to allow designs to incorporate the increased brightness necessary for large-scale commercial and consumer product acceptance. Bias SynPower modules are available in sample quantities. The workshops were key first steps in the launch of a new DOE SSL research and development (R&D) manufacturing initiative to enhance product consistency and quality and to accelerate cost reductions through manufacturing improvements. More than 350 total participants—chip makers, fixture and component manufacturers, and others—joined DOE at the workshops to examine underlying issues related to materials, equipment, and other factors that influence SSL product quality and cost. The Fairfax workshop attendees identified key barriers and recommendations toward lower-cost, higher-quality SSL products, and this input was used to develop a “strawman” roadmap for review at the Vancouver worksho...

LED lighting to reduce both power consumption

The new product is designed for use in bus & taxi stops, benches and walkway coverings and other public spaces. It is set to sell from July 20, exclusive to the Japanese market, targeting municipalities and led linear high bay light private companies. And the two manufacturers also propose its use for a wide range of applications across Japan. Its key features including:Firstly the shelter's solar power generating system can supply electricity for surrounding electrical needs, such as lighting for advertising displays, with excess power being sold to the power utility companies, thus helping to meet expected power shortages in Japan during the summer. Secondly, LED lighting to reduce both power consumption and CO2 emissions at night. Moreover, the shelter can play as emergency power supplier in the event of a disaster, as it has an independent power outlet that could be used to charge mobile phones or other vital electronics. During the several years, LED lights have gradua...
