Vision of LED World: What Kinds of LEDs We Expect in 2020
Shuji Nakamura, Research Director of the Solid State Lighting & Energy Center, University of California / Santa Barbara
Abstract
Currently, all of major LEDs companies use a hetero-epitaxial growth to make LEDs. GaN substrates are now available for LEDs in spite of a high price. The
performance of homo-epitaxial LEDs should be better than that of hetero-epitaxial LEDs in the view of the crystal quality. LEDs can be grown on a different crystal
orientation from C-plain, such as semipolar and nonpolar plains using GaN substrates. Considering about the latest results of high-efficient semipolar blue LEDs
with much smaller current and thermal droop in comparison with those of conventional C-plain LEDs, nonpolar and semipolar LEDs would occupy some market
share around 2020.
Bio

10:15 - 10:45 Actualizing LED Lighting: From Innovation to Commercialization
Dr. MJ Jou, President, Epistar
Abstract
LEDs have gained in a wide variety of applications over the last few years, from back light for mobile device to TV to solid state lighting. The successful adoption
of LED for lighting relies heavily on efficiency and cost improvement. In this talk, we will present approaches to achieve 235 lm/W of cool white and 226 lm/W of
warm white LED using high voltage design. In addition, we will discuss an innovative design in order to achieve 160 lm/W for an omni-directional warm white light
bulb. We believe using these new concepts, the penetration rate for LEDs in lighting will increase tremendously and mass commercialization of LED lighting will be
realized in 2013.

10:45 - 11:15 LED Lighting Market
Vrinda Bhandarkar, Director of Research, LED Lighting, Strategies Unlimited
Abstract
The decline in price of LED packages, increased use of mid-power packages, improved designs, availability of a variety of LED packages are some of the drivers that
have made LED lighting competitive with other light sources. The increase in the volumes triggered by subsidies and rebates has further reduced prices for the
end-users. The feasibility of LED lighting is no longer in doubt. The LED technology used with controls offers potential to save significant energy. The presentation will
review some of these market drivers and the challenges in 2012 by application, and forecast the market for 2013-2017.

Nick Holonyak, Jr., John Bardeen Endowed Chair in Electrical and Computer Engineering and Physics and
Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Nick Holonyak was Nobel Laureate John Bardeen’s first Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he received his
undergraduate and master’s degrees and Ph.D. (1954). He created the first visible semiconductor lasers in 1960. In 1963, he again joined Dr.
Bardeen, the co-inventor of the transistor, at the University of Illinois and worked on quantum wells and quantum-well lasers. He invented the
first practically useful visible LED in 1962 while working as a consulting scientist at a General Electric Company laboratory in Syracuse, New
York and has been called “the father of the light-emitting diode”. In addition to introducing the III-V alloy LED, Prof. Holonyak holds 41 patents.
His other inventions include the red light semiconductor laser, and the shorted emitter p-n-p-n switch (used in light dimmers and power tools).
He helped create the first light dimmer while at GE. Prof. Holonyak has received numerous awards for his contributions, including the National
Medal of Technology, the IEEE Medal of Honor, the IEEE Edison Medal, the Japan Prize, the Lemelson-MIT Prize, the Frederic Ives Medal of the
Optical Society of America, and many others.
M. George Craford, Solid State Lighting Fellow, Philips Lumileds Lighting.
George Craford received his MS (1963) and PhD (1967) degrees in physics from the University of Illinois in 1967 working under Prof. Nick
Holonyak. He began his professional career at the Monsanto Chemical Company, then in 1979 joined Hewlett Packard, where in 1982 he
became the research and development manager of the HP Optoelectronics Division. When Lumileds Lighting spun out from HP in 1999, Dr.
Craford was named the company’s Chief Technical Officer (CTO). In 1972 Dr. Craford invented the first yellow LED as well as red and red-orange
LEDs. At Monsanto, his group developed nitrogen-doped GaAsP, and at HP pioneered development of AlInGaP LEDs and developed AlGaAs and
InGaN products. In addition, his team implemented compound semiconductor wafer bonding to create devices with efficiencies exceeding
incandescent and halogen lights. Dr. Craford is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, an IEEE Fellow, and recipient of the 2002
National Medal of Technology and 1995 IEEE Morris N. Liebmann Memorial Award, as well as awards from the Optical Society of America,

11:15 - 12:00 LED Pioneer Awards: Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Invention of the Visible LED
Roland Haitz, President, Haitz Consulting
After studying physics in Germany, Roland Haitz joined the Shockley Transistor Research Laboratory in Palo Alto, CA. For his work with Dr. William
Shockley, he received his PhD degree from the Technical University of Munich in 1963. After five years at the Physics Research Laboratory of
Texas Instruments he joined Hewlett-Packard as R&D Manager for optoelectronics technology and component products. He supervised the
development of numerous LED innovations, including the first LED numeric display, used in the HP-35 scientific calculator, and the first high-flux
package for automotive signaling applications. During his time at HP/Agilent, the optoelectronics business grew from less than $1 million in
1969 to more than $1.5 billion at his retirement in 2002 as CTO of the Semiconductor Products Group at Agilent Technologies. Besides his
career in business and technology management he also co-founded the Optoelectronics Industry Development Association (OIDA) and wrote the
seminal paper that became the spark that ignited the solid-state lighting (SSL) revolution. Dr. Haitz is perhaps best known for his formulation of
the concept that has become widely known as “Haitz’s Law”, which states that that every decade the cost per lumen for LEDs falls by a factor of
10, and the amount of light generated per LED package increases by a factor of 20.
