Introduction to Solid-State Lighting (Hardcover)

A thorough reference that sheds light on the promising field of solid-state lighting

Solid-state lighting is a rapidly emerging field. Light Emitting Diodes are already used in traffic signals, signage/contour lighting, large area displays, and automotive applications. But its greatest future lies in the possibility of applying solid-state lamps to general lighting. Solid-state lighting promises to reduce energy consumption as much as fifty percent, cut down on carbon-dioxide emission, and even spur the development of a completely new lighting industry.

Giving this important emerging field the attention it deserves, Introduction to Solid-State Lighting comprehensively covers:

• The history of lighting
• The characterization of visible light
• Conventional light sources
• LED basics
• Extraction of light from high-brightness LEDs
• White LED
• Applications of solid-state lamps
