  7. LED: The future? part 2 - what are LEDs?

  8. • electroluminescence discovered in 1907 • first infra-red LED developed in 1961 • first visible (red) LED developed in 1962. • until 1968, LEDs cost upward of $200 per unit. • first high-powered blue LED in 1990s. • blue LED can excite phosphor to produce white light. Typical LED replacement lamp - 38 diodes in one package Haitz’s law - light output increases exponentially

  9. • an LED is a semi-conductor device, also referred to as a solid-state device. • when electron meets a hole, a photon is emitted. • colour of light is determined by material. • less wear-and-tear makes devices extremely long-lived. • heat is primary cause of early LED failure. Inner workings of an LED (drawing by S-Kei) Effect on life of Luxeon T2 LED by temperature (graph by Luxeon Inc.)

  10. • an LED cannot make white light, but only a narrow part of spectrum. • we can combine the colour of several LEDs for RGB or additive mixing • or a high-output short wavelength LED to excite a phosphor coating • RGB LEDs can be tuned to give white at the expense of colour stability. • remote phosphor LEDs become physically larger for higher outputs. • high output LEDs need considerable thermal management RGB LEDs combine to produce white light. Remote phosphor LED uses multiple LEDs and a single emission plate to create white light

  11. Xicato - phosphor coated technology 71mm x 15mm optical window plug in connections Xicato XLM Module - up to 2200 lumens at 700mA

  12. • colour rendering - how measured? • what is the lamp life, how is it measured? • how easy is it to replace the LED module? • how can we control the output? • what guarantee will the manufacturer give to produce replacement fixtures in the future? • will the LED module be obsolete in the near future?

  20. • Daily Mail article, 25th October 2010: ‘Seeing the cut price light’. • Ryness Electrical replacement GU10 downlight supplies 340 lumens. • typical 50W dichroic supplies 800 lumens. • replacing standard downlight with suggested lamp would reduce light output by 58% • replacing one lamp would save 86% energy. • however 2.4 new lamps would be needed. • replace halogen with IRC technology & energy saving drops to 52%. • energy saving is only part of the picture • payback time rises to 5 years.
