Light Emitting Diodes―stars of the show

摘要

Since most of the silicon device markets are still in a depressed mode, the billion dollar plus, high brightness LED market, led by worldwide growth in most of its segments, continues to be the star performer of the semiconductor industry (see Figure 1). Such was the story presented to over 200 attendees at this year's Strategies in Light Conference, as a full recovery in LED growth from the 2001 stagnation appears to have occurred. This popular annual forum is provided by Strategies Unlimited, research unit of Pennwell Publishing and included exhibitors with many state of the art products.
