About the session
We are now on the path towards a new illumination paradigm that can radically change the way we look at light forever!! This technology promises to enhance the quality, flexibility, and cost effectiveness of light delivery. The speaker pioneered the first group-III nitride-based blue/green LEDs and group-III nitride-based violet laser diodes (LDs), bringing about a revolution in lighting technology. LEDs are generally very long lasting, and the typical red or yellow LEDs have estimated life-times of about more than 10 years, greatly reducing energy consumption and ongoing maintenance costs. No other single lighting technology presents so much potential to conserve valuable electricity. LEDs can provide high-quality lighting in an increasing number of applications and now the speaker is moving this remarkable phenomenon in technology forward into economic reality with a long-term goal to "light up the world" on implementation.
