Solid-State Lighting Technologies to Be Featured at Display Week 2010
Solid-state-lighting (SSL) has been gaining momentum against conventional lighting. It is already well-established in areas such as backlights for displays, digital signage, and small specialty lighting applications, and is expanding its realm into mainstream markets including home, office, and street lighting; automobile headlamps; and other applications. Energy efficiency, minimal heat, and long luminance life have been driving these markets despite the higher costs. How will the technical issues of better heat sinking, improved reliability, and power supplies affect the development and deployment of higher efficiency and lower cost LED and OLED SSL applications? What new product designs and applications are made practical by super-long-life lighting products (e.g., products not designed for bulb replacement)? How will CFL, LED, OLED, and other SSL technologies likely play out against each other over time in the various markets, and how fast should the $/lumen decrease over the next 10 years?
This year's 2010 SID Technical Program organizers will be emphasizing the different developments and approaches that are leading the way toward further expansion of solid-state lighting's role in numerous industries.
