White LEDs face design challenges.

Jonathan Wafer, Osram Opto Semiconductors Inc.

LEDs, once considered low-flux optosemiconductors, are now finding use in traditional, everyday lighting applications. Substantial increases in power efficiencies have enabled their use in traffic signals, automotive exterior lighting, signage and other illumination applications. Although years away from making major inroads in general lighting, LEDs do enjoy some compelling advantages compared with traditional filament-based light sources, including reduced power consumption, lower warranty replacement costs, increased operational lifetimes, vivid saturated colors and instant-on convenience....Read full article
