ELEXCON Workshop
Workshop: Advanced Packaging of High Brightness LED for
Solid State Lighting
Date: Nov. 16, 2010 Venue: Shenzhen China
Lecturer: Dr. Ricky Lee, HKUST LED-FPD Technology R&D Center
Introduction:
With the advancement of materials and packaging technologies, the illumination performance of light-emitting diode (LED) has been greatly improved in the past decade. In recent years high power white LEDs have reached efficiencies high enough to kick off serious discussion on using LEDs for solid state lighting (SSL). The performance of high brightness LED (HB-LED) has continued to grow from about 20 Lumens/Watt to over 150 Lumens/Watt. SSL has major advantages such as energy saving, environmental friendliness, and long operational life. LED Packaging is the major enabling technology to achieve these merits. This short course will review the technology trends of lighting sources and introduce the features of LED. Technical issues in packaging LED components such as interconnection, phosphor deposition, and encapsulation will be elaborated in detail. Considerations in thermal management will be addressed. Efforts will also be made to investigate optical design, analysis and characterization. Applications of HB-LED for general lighting will be illustrated. In addition, the technology roadmap and IP issues will be discussed.
