“SPE” method boosts LED development with dramatic increase in light output
Troy, N.Y. — Scientists at the Lighting Research Center (LRC) at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a method known as “SPE” to get significantly more light from white LEDs (light-emitting diodes) without requiring more energy.
“We have developed a technology based on a new scattered photon extraction (SPE) method that will speed up the progress of solid-state lighting and help secure our nation’s energy future,” said Nadarajah Narendran, Ph.D., director of research at the LRC. “The new technology dramatically increases light output and efficacy of white LEDs, and could play a fundamental role in the evolution of white LEDs for lighting in homes and offices.”
