Xiamen University, crack deep UV LED application problems

Xiamen University Physics and Mechanical and Electrical Engineering by a research team high alumina component nitride deep UV LED surface covered with a layer of ultra-thin aluminum film to crack the constraints of this light-emitting device to the wider application of the key challenges of the light extraction efficiency open new methods and ideas in the field of health care, environmental protection, military industrial applications for such devices in the future.

So-called deep UV, refers to the wave length at 280 nm UV. This light source in water and air purification, and play a unique role in disease treatment, information technology and other fields. But a long time, limited by the intrinsic characteristics of the high alumina component nitride was present and preparation process, deep ultraviolet light is extracted from the light emitting diode is very low efficiency, which means that little electricity into a portion of the available light, resulting in a "light "drain, has greatly restricted the wider application of deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes.

Building Physics and Electrical Engineering Professor research group under 64 and 128 atom supercells the geometric task group to look "locked" in the study. After several years of research, a member of the task group associate professor Huang Kai and doctoral high Na borrow an ultra-thin aluminum film to crack this problem: when the research group in a deep ultraviolet light emitting diodes plated on ultra-thin layer of only 5 nanometers aluminum, surprised to find that layer aluminum film not only does not like a traditional mirror device emitted light is reflected back, but cleverly device to the side of the emitted light collected through the aluminum layer, magic is emitted from the front, to achieve improvement of light extraction efficiency.

Huang Kai explained, "This is the very thin aluminum film do because when the nano effect makes it different from the traditional mirror reflecting the light back, but concentrated absorption, light collection and positive emission."

The tests showed that the "coat" of this layer of aluminum on the contribution of the ultraviolet LED light extraction efficiency will vary with wavelength. Generally speaking, the shorter the wavelength of light, the higher the efficiency. Data show that the same is plated on this layer of aluminum film, a wavelength of about 310 nm ultraviolet LED, the light extraction efficiency can be increased by about 20%; wavelength of about 290 nm ultraviolet LED, light extraction efficiency can be increased by about 50%; For a wavelength of about 280 nm deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode, the light extraction efficiency can be increased to 130%.

LED revolution will render all other light

How times change. Since the mid-'90s everyone and his brother has raved about the energy efficiency of the compact fluorescent light bulb.

When the CFL was introduced it was more energy efficient than any other type of lighting that had previously been used in the home. Where old-fashioned filament style incandescent bulbs were good for 1,200 hours of use, the public clamored to purchase CFLs that burned for 8,000 hours and more, using one-fifth of the energy.

As staunchly as we supported the change from conventional filament lighting to CFL use, we are now in the midst of an even better alternative. We feel that compact fluorescents will be fading away sooner than later.

The reason is simple. The next generation of artificial lighting is equally as cheap to operate, much, much brighter (and oh so much whiter) and longer lasting than CFLs. How about a life span of 25,000 hours for starters.

Where we never saw a key chain size CFL flashlight an LED keychain flashlight is now at every checkout counter.

The LED (light emitting diode) has finally made its way through lighting puberty (and the flashlight circuit) and is now stretching its "I'm the best and cheapest lighting for your home" muscles. Just about every manufacturer of lighting is now offering some sort of household LED alternative.

Big box and independent hardware stores alike offer an assortment of LED lighting.

Don't be fooled by the first generation of solar powered LED path lights that barely offered enough light to be seen on anything but a pitch-black night. We've discovered that LED lighting for the home is literally amazing.

And we are so glad. No mercury, no special handling and, best of all, LEDs are recyclable.

Our latest whole house remodel partly involved replacing a '70s style recessed fluorescent light box and other dated fixtures with new LED recess lights. The result was brighter rooms and halls (no more putrid colored light), even lighting and lighting that is truly white.

When the lighting is bright and the lighting is white the true colors used to decorate a room pop out and are more vivid and bold. Also, there is no time delay. LEDs are "instant on" bulbs.

LEDs have been used commonly since the early 1960s as indicator lights in electronics and have been growing as a light source ever since. At the Greenbuild 2012 green products tradeshow we spoke with several light fixture manufacturers who stated that LED technology had "come of age" and that LED had become "dependable enough to manufacture high end commercial lighting" for street lighting, parking lots, stadiums and just about any other conceivable use.

We strongly urge you to experiment with a good quality LED light somewhere in your home. The absence of heat, the evenly disbursed bright white light, the continued energy savings you have with fluorescents, the compactness, the instant start up, the unbelievable lasting quality and the absence of mercury make the LED the next "safer" generation of home lighting.

The incandescent was our VHS. The CFL was our laser disk and the LED is our DVD/Blue-ray.
