While energy production
and distribution
have always been a
challenge, today it is increasingly
urgent to reduce power
consumption — and lighting is
no exception. Light-emitting diodes
or LEDs provide an alternative
to conventional lighting
for consuming less power, lower
thermal dissipation, and longer
life. In fact, LED products are already spurring evolution in lighting,
and it is anticipated that power
LEDs will lead the way in combining
high intensity and efficiency.
So what is the structure of LEDs,
and how do they emit light?
