The new LUXEON Q from Philips Lumileds delivers superior performance in a high-power emitter that serves as a direct drop-in replacement for products that use the standard 3535 surface mount package. LUXEON Q is the first high-power LED based on LUXEON Flip Chip die, Philips Lumileds high performance Chip Scale Package (CSP) device architecture.Philips Lumileds LUXEON Q pictured from above. (LEDinside/ Philips Lumileds)Efficacy for the LUXEON Q emitter is 135 lm/W at 5700K 70 CRI and 115 lm/W at 3000K 80 CRI (@85˚C and 350 mA). Kathleen Hartnett, Product Line Director for LUXEON Emitters notes, ";Our LED is especially competitive when it's driven harder.


For instance, at 1 Ampere, a flux of more than 300 lm at an efficacy of 102 lm/W at 85˚C is achieved in neutral white at 4000K. The high efficacy at high drive current of the LUXEON Q emitter is achieved as a result of the industry leading wall plug and conversion efficiency of Philips Lumileds next-generation CSP architecture." The LUXEON Q takes advantage of a fully developed ecosystem for 3535 components, including a wide range of optics, to speed the time-to-market for omnidirectional indoor and outdoor luminaires.


Applications include high bay and low bay luminaires, downlights, outdoor wall packs, replacement lamps and specialty luminaires. ";Customers are starting with a familiar LED package and can quickly build their products from there using readily available optics and other compatible components," says Hartnett. The LUXEON Q emitter line is available in CCTs of 2700K, 3000K, and 3500K at 80 CRI and CCTs of 4000K and 5700K at 70 CRI.

Rigid Industries LED Lighting announces the latest innovation with the RDS-Series radius light bar. This linear light bar is the legendary flagship E-Series light bar treated to a gentle arc, creating a curve in a 20"-54"extruded aluminum housing and packed full of Rigid Industries Spot LED technology to produce an astonishing custom look for any car, truck or offroad vehicle. The RDS-Series is the apex of form and function.Rigid Industries RDS-Series Radius LED Light Bar.Rigid Industries RDS-Series is another first for the LED lighting industry and has been in testing and pre-production for the last two years and was first tested by BJ Baldwin as seen on his trophy truck at Parker 300 in January 2012.


Since that time, Rigid Industries' engineering team has been through numerous design changes, incorporating multiple patent pending utility and design features. The RDS LED light bar transforms the rectangular light bar Rigid Industries created, which became a phenomenon in 2006, to give this futuristic design sleekness and offer its customers an increased light spread. The world is curved, match it.Racecar Driver BJ Baldwin with his RDS-Series light bar. Listening to our consumers' needs and wants and then exceeding their expectations is what Rigid Industries does best, and we are proud to introduce a revolutionary product like the RDS-Series," says Taylor Anderson, VP of Marketing for Rigid Industries.


The RDS-Series is offered with the patented Hybrid Spot optic which gives off a 10-degree cone of light spread across the arc of the housing radius. The typical straight light bar is a 10-degree beam with a 10-degree spread. When combined with the patented optics and the new RDS-Series housings, you get the same incredible distance, but in a 54" RDS-Series, the beam now is almost 50 degrees wide! The highest center of intensity on the RDS-Series projects a total distance of approximately one mile. The RDS-Series will benefit those who need to light up great distances and still see a deer on the side of the road at the last minute. As with all our lights, you will get IP68 sealing, ease of mounting or adjustment and reliable securement.

A U.S. university has found an innovative way of using LED lights. With the flick of a light switch, researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies can change the shape of a protein in the brain of a mouse, turning on the protein at the precise moment they want. This allows the scientists to observe the exact effect of the protein's activation. The new method, described in the Oct. 16, 2013, issue of the journal Neuron, relies on specially engineered amino acids—the molecules that make up proteins—and light from an LED. Now that it has been shown to work, the technique can be adapted to give researchers control of a wide variety of other proteins in the brain to study their functions. "What we are now able to do is not only control neuronal activity, but control a specific protein within a neuron," says senior study author Lei Wang, an associate professor in Salk's Jack H. Skirball Center for Chemical Biology and Proteomics and holder of the Frederick B. Rentschler Developmental Chair.


If a scientist wants to know what set of neurons in the brain is responsible for a particular action or behavior, being able to turn the neurons on and off at will gives the researcher a targeted way to test the neurons' effects. Likewise, if they want to know the role of a certain protein inside the cells, the ability to activate or inactivate the protein of interest is key to studying its biology.From L to R: Salk scientist Lei Wang and graduate student Ji-Yong Kang. (Courtesy ofthe Salk Institute for Biological Studies) Over the past decade, researchers have developed a handful of ways of activating or inactivating neurons using light, as part of the burgeoning field of so-called optogenetics. In optogenetic experiments, mice are genetically engineered to have a light-sensitive channel from algae integrated into their neurons. When exposed to light, the channel opens or closes, changing the flow of molecules into the neuron and altering its ability to pass an electrochemical message through the brain. Using such optogenetic approaches, scientists can pick and choose which neurons in the brain they want turned on or off at any given time and observe the resulting change in the engineered mice."


There's no question that this is a great way to control neuronal activity, by borrowing light-responsive channels or pumps from other organisms and putting them in neurons," says Wang. "But rather than put a stranger into neurons, we wanted to control the activity of proteins native to neurons." To make proteins respond to light, Wang's team harnessed a photo-responsive amino acid, called Cmn, which has a large chemical structure. When a pulse of light shines on the molecule, Cmn's bulky side chain breaks off, leaving cysteine, a smaller amino acid. Wang's group realized that if a single Cmn was integrated into the right place in the structure of a protein, the drastic change in the amino acid's size could activate or inactivate the entire protein. To test their idea, Wang and his colleagues engineered new versions of a potassium channel in neurons, adding Cmn to their sequence. "Basically the idea was that when you put this amino acid in the pore of the channel, the bulky side chain entirely blocks the passage of ions through the channel," explains Ji-Yong Kang, a graduate student who works in Wang's group, and first author of the new paper."


Then, when the bond in the amino acid breaks in response to light, the channel is opened up." The method worked in isolated cells: after trial and error, the scientists found the ideal spot in the channel to put Cmn, so that the channel was initially blocked, but opened when light shone on it. They were able to measure the change to the channel's properties by recording the electrical current that flowed through the cells before and after exposure to light. Earlier this year, President Obama announced the multi-billion dollar Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative, a ten-year project to map the activity of the human brain.


Creating new ways to study the molecules in the brain, such as using light-responsive amino acids to study neuronal proteins, will be key to moving forward on this initiative and similar efforts to understand the brain, says Wang. His lab is now working to develop ways to not only activate proteins, but inactive them using light-sensitive amino acids, and applying the technique to proteins other than Kir2.1. Other researchers on the study were Daichi Kawaguchi, Irene Coin, Zheng Xiang, Dennis D. M. O'Leary of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, and Paul A. Slesinger of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. The work was supported a Salk Innovation Grant, a Marie Curie Fellowship from the European Commission, and grants from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine and the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

Philips Lumileds introduces LUXEON UV, a family of LEDs that delivers the very highest system flux densities. Available in wavelengths of 380-430nm, the emitters are specifically designed for applications including ultraviolet curing, counterfeit detection, medical, industrial and specialty lighting.LUXEON UV LEDs are 1/5th the size of other high-power emitters (photo courtesy: Philips Lumileds)";The UV LED market has been hampered by limited flux density and a lack of design flexibility," said Kurosh Hashemi, Senior Product Line Manager at Philips Lumileds. "



Philips Lumileds addressed these limitations by introducing a compact, high-power emitter that can be tightly spaced to deliver the highest flux density to the desired medium. For example, for curing applications, 395nm emitters enable arrays of up to 38W/cm2 when driven at 1A." With a micro-footprint of only 2.2mm2, each LED is provided in undomed form for precise optical control. Since the product's inception, Philips Lumileds has optimized LUXEON UV LEDs for high reliability: using surface mount assembly instead of wire bonding; designing for high-power operation (up to 1A drive currents) with best-in-class droop and forward voltage; and offering multiple binning options.



The LUXEON UV is modeled after the company's successful LUXEON Z family, winner of the Ultimate Product Award in the LEDs & Lighting category of the 2013 UBM ACE Awards. ";We combined the proven advantages of high-flux density and optical control of the LUXEON Z design with a high-performing UV chip," said Hashemi. The LUXEON UV is designed for superior thermal management. The package utilizes flip chip assembly, where the chip is in direct contact with the thermally conductive AlN substrate. ";Customers wanting to utilize air cooling units rather than more costly water cooling are very excited about the LUXEON UV offering," said Hashemi.

Currently 80 percent of sapphire applications are used in sapphire substrate while the other 20 percent is for non-substrate materials, according to Chinese-language online media Finance.com.cn estimations. Sapphire substrate is mainly applied in LED lighting and Si On Sapphire (SOS) related products, with LED lighting accounting for over 90 percent. Therefore demands from LED lighting directly affect sapphire substrate and is the market's main focus. LED demand has picked up, driving up sapphire substrate demand. With the sluggish economy in 2012, LED lighting demands fell below expectations leading to a decrease in upstream MOCVD equipment usage. Global MOCVD utilization rates in 2012 reached 59 percent and 42 percent in Mainland China, causing sapphire substrate demand increase to be less than forecasted, according to statistics by a related organizations.



At the same time, continued increase of sapphire substrate production capacity aggravated the supply and demand situation. The demand to supply ratio only reached 66 percent, leading to sapphire substrate price drop. With penetration rates picking up for LED direct-view type LED backlight in 2013, and rise in LED lighting demand, MOCVD utilization rates rose to 74 percent (63 percent in China) driving sapphire substrate demands rebound. Demand to supplyratio slowly began to improve. Demands for 2012 reached 57.13 million pieces (pcs) per year increased to 83 million pcs per year (2-inch equivalent), demand to supply ratio reached 80 percent, and became the main factor that pushed sapphire substrate prices back up. Demand in LED is expected to rise in 2014 and sapphire substrate is hoped to follow suit.




LED lighting products price drops are anticipated to continue, where some products have already reached prices equivalent to CFL which is spurring a rapid increase in LED lighting demands. This year will also see a global move towards banning incandescent luminaries. EU, Japan, and other regions have already begun implementing these new standards in 1H13. Other regions are projected to carry out related standards after the end of the year advancing LED lighting demand penetration rates, which is estimated to continue drive sapphire substrate material demands back up. The Chinese media estimatedthat sapphire substrate supply to demand ratio in 2014 to further increase to 91 percent supply is hoped to improve. iPhone application is opening up a new application venue for sapphire substrate.



If new Apple products launched in 2014 use sapphire substrate in protect covers, 2014-2015 has a possibility to reach 40 million in sales generating RMB 120 million (US $19 million) in profit. This will drive up sapphire substrate demand to 97.14 million pieces a year, 29.14 pieces a year for 2-inch equivalent making 2014 almost equal to the lowest volume amount for the entire LED application market for sapphire substrate. According to these statistics, the sapphire substrate market is hoped to growlarger than five times. (Translated by: Leah Allen, Edited by: Judy Lin)

Philips has released a new dimmable LED with a radically different shape compared to other LEDs and incandescent bulbs. The new SlimStyle 60-watt equiv. LED, available for retail in one month, has dropped the cumbersome heat sink and flattened out with a flat circle design.Horseshoe shape of the new SlimStlye LED provides better heat dissipation, eliminating the need for the heat sink.


The flat design is made to better disperse the heat, therefore elimination the need of the heat sink. This could be great news for consumers as this could drop the price of the bulb significantly. A Philips spokeswoman wrote via email: ";The flat surface helps conduct heat away from the LEDs, eliminating the need for the heavy aluminum heat sinks associated with LED bulbs.



This eliminates the cost of the bulb, while still delivering omni-directional light." The SlimStyle LED uses 10.6 watts producing 800 lumens of light. The bulbs give off a warm, soft white tone with a color temperature of 2,700K. It has been designed to meet Energy Star standards and has already been submitted for qualifications. The price remains unknown and the bulb will not be available for retail until Jan. 2, one day after the ban on incandescence goes into effect.

The LED industry is entering a rapid growth phase in the lighting sector in 2014. Global LED bulb shipment volumes doubled from 520 million in 2013 to 1.1 billion in 2014. Tube lighting also increased with 2013 shipment volumes rising from 230 million to 400 million in 2014, according to data revealed by Epistar during the East Asia Pacific Standards and Spec Development Conference. LED chip design still maintains a 6-12 month transition period while LED package technology undergoes changes every 1-2 years.


Epistar gave an analysis of the different lighting trends in 2014 during the conference. The company pointed out that for G9 luminaries, luminosity has increased from 100lm to 200lm and 250lm. Following the increase in luminosity, heat dissipation has become a major challenge for many manufacturers. Candle luminaries are also becoming a trend, with luminosity having increased from 150lm to 400lm and soon up to 600lm. In the bulb application market, 40W equiv. and 60W equiv. bulbs are currently the mainstream. Factory price for 40W equiv. bulbs with a luminosity of 450lm is around US $2-3 (NT $60-90) and US $3-5 for 60W equiv. bulbs with luminosity of 800lm. Sales price are higher than factory price by 2-2.5 times, indicating sales price have continued to decline as production prices slide downwards. Prices have reached originally estimated sweet spot.


For LED tubes, the mains specs are 1200lm, 1600lm, and 2200lm. For 1200lm LED tube with a system luminous efficiency of around 70lm/W, factory price is US $3-5. Factory price for 1600lm LED tube with system luminos efficiency of 90lm/W is US $6-8. High-end 2200lm tube lighting has a factory price of US $10-15 and system luminous efficiency of 100lm/W. Factory prices for 2'x2 panel lighting and slot-type lighting depends on luminosity. Generally speaking, products with 3000lm and system luminosity efficiency of 100lm/W will have a factory price of about US $40-60. Products with 2500lm and system luminos efficiency of 90lm/W will have a manufacturer price of US $30-40.
