Light-emitting devices (LEDs) have been evolving as the dominant light source in mobile phones, displays, automobiles, and now also general lighting. The availability of devices emitting not only in the full visible color range including white, but also in ultraviolet and infrared, enables a variety of exciting applications.
Novel materials and device architectures combined with increasingly sophisticated manufacturing processes promise low-cost solid-state light sources with high efficiency and luminous flux. With the recent advances in efficiency, radiance, output power, and white quality, LEDs are now dominating conventional lighting technologies in virtually all areas of lighting including the huge general lighting market. Looking forward, LED technology is well positioned to disrupt other markets such as displays, automobiles, visible light communications, water and air purification, sanitization, projection, bio sensing, sensors for internet of things (IoT), and lighting for health, amenity, medical diagnostics, and urban farming.
The objective of this conference is to bring together scientists and engineers working on material and device aspects as well as manufacturing and application aspects of LEDs for illumination, information, and beyond, and to review the current state of the art, development trends, and outlooks in efficiency, spectral quality, reliability, brand new emerging applications and other relevant factors. Theoretical and experimental papers will include, but not be limited to the following areas:
UV AND DUV LEDS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS
NIR/IR-EMITTING LEDS
AUGMENTED AND VIRTUAL REALITY
LIGHT BASED SENSORS AND COMMUNICATION
LED APPLICATIONS AND SOLID-STATE LIGHTING
ELECTROLUMINESCENT SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS AND DEVICES FOR SSL
WAVELENGTH CONVERSION MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS
TECHNOLOGIES FOR LED DESIGN AND FABRICATION
MEASUREMENTS AND CHARACTERIZATIONS FOR LED MATERIALS AND DEVICES
EFFICIENCY CHALLENGES IN III-NITRIDES LEDS
LED MANUFACTURING
SUBSTRATES FOR LED EPITAXIAL GROWTH
SUBMOUNTS FOR LED MOUNTING
QUANTUM DOT BASED LEDS
NANOMATERIALS AND NANOSTRUCTURES FOR LEDS
