| Strategies in Light Europe 2011 conference program (UPDATE) |
| With a theme of “Enhancing the Quality and Performance of LED Lighting,” this year’s Strategies in Light Europe 2011 conference takes place in Milan, Italy. |
| WEBCAST: Solar-Powered LED Street Lighting |
| This webcast provides a tutorial on solar-powered LED street lighting and explains how solar-powered LED street lights apply to power management solutions. |
| New lamps for old, or brand new fixtures? (MAGAZINE) |
| There is a huge potential market for retrofit LED lamps that offer high performance at an acceptable price point, according to TIM WHITAKER. |
| Is the lighting industry now in the mood for OLEDs? (MAGAZINE) |
| OLEDs are evolving as complementary sources for indoor lighting, says Verbatim’s JEANINE CHROBAK-KANDO, who provides an overview of technology, desirable characteristics and the current status of today’s OLED lighting products. |
| Active cooling can boost lumen output in LED lighting (MAGAZINE) |
| Active cooling technology can offer thermal capabilities that are superior to passive heat sinks and can raise lumen output and extend LED life in solid-state lighting, says RYAN AHEARN. |
| LED lighting must work with legacy dimming technologies (MAGAZINE) |
| To achieve broad market success, LED lighting manufacturers must deliver products that offer dimming capability that is at least equivalent to incandescent lighting, and SSL luminaire design must support legacy dimming controls, explains DAVID COOPER. |
| Automated defect-data analysis allows comprehensive yield management in LED manufacturing (MAGAZINE) |
| Automated, systematic analysis of defects during LED wafer manufacturing should reduce the time needed to identify and resolve the underlying problems, according to authors from PHILIPS LUMILEDS and KLA-TENCOR. |
| Interchangeable lenses allow for differentiated light distribution in architectural lighting (MAGAZINE) |
| In architectural lighting, interchangeable tertiary lenses can offer a significant advantage over other optical systems, as THOMAS SCHIELKE explains. |
| LED lighting allows companies to go green and save money (MAGAZINE) |
| Green initiatives are certainly worthwhile given the positive impact on the environment, and LED lighting is one green technology that can also save companies and individuals money, explains RON LUSK, CEO of Lumetech Group. |
| LED industry requires versatile equipment to suit different needs (MAGAZINE) |
| Collaboration with equipment suppliers can help LED manufacturers to get equipment specifically designed or adapted for their needs, and can also result in shorter development cycles for new products and process flows, according to THOMAS UHRMANN and THORSTEN MATTHIAS. |
| LED outdoor lighting field trials demonstrate benefits to potential adopters (MAGAZINE) |
| The LightSavers consortium of cities is undertaking an extensive and coordinated series of trials of LED outdoor lighting products, with a view to persuading the relevant authorities to adopt the technology, writes PHILIP JESSUP. |
| Raleigh LED lighting projects demonstrate durability and savings (MAGAZINE) |
| Beginning in 2007, Raleigh, North Carolina, was among the first cities to install LED-based lighting, and has demonstrated energy and maintenance savings over a long term with better-than-expected lumen maintenance, says MAURY WRIGHT. |
| Coordinated circuit protection enhances AC-LED luminaires and lamps (MAGAZINE) |
| Properly-deployed components can protect AC-LED-based lighting-system designs from over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature conditions while meeting safety and performance standards, say BARRY BRENTS and DAVID NEAL. |
