In recent years, LED brightness has improved tremendously due to advancement in LED die in terms of luminous efficiency and its ability to be driven under higher powered conditions. Due to these ...

SiliconCore Technology, manufacturer of LED displays and laser diode controls, has recently announced its LED In Silicon Array (LISA) platform. The manufacturer’s range of ultra fine pixel pitch LED ...

GENEVA — Technologists have long sought a silicon light-emitting diode that could be integrated into standard CMOS fabrication lines. Now STMicroelectronics claims to have achieved this critical goal ...

Researchers have created the world’s smallest silicon LED and holographic microscope that opens up a wide range of potential applications, including turning your smartphone camera into a portable, ...

Over on their YouTube channel [Science Buddies] shows us how to embed LEDs in soft robots. Soft robots can be made entirely or partially from silicone. In the video you see an example of a claw-like ...

The LED is one of those fundamental building block components in electronics, something that’s been in the parts bin for decades. But while a simple LED costs pennies, that WS2812 or other fancy ...

Researchers have successfully manufactured high performance prototypes of blue and white leds in which the light emitting gallium nitride layers are grown on silicon wafers with a diameter of 150mm.

Dow Corning introduced four optical silicone materials for LED lighting applications this week at the Light+Building show in Frankfurt, Germany. As LEDs continue to replace conventional light sources, ...

The diode, which operates close to room temperature, could greatly boost the performance of silicon-based optoelectronics systems. Martin Green and colleagues at the University of New South Wales in ...

A long time ago, in a place not so far away, I used to believe that future lasers and optics would knock electronics into a tin hat. Yet silicon electronics still dominate all forms of computation and ...
