Devices and Packaging

   
  Light Emitting Diode (LED) Technology
   
 
ASTRI researchers are developing an effective technology platform for light emitting diodes (LEDs) with substantially increased brightness and enhanced uniformity, including device design and process, packaging design and process, material development, and optics and thermal design. Prototypes that integrate these technologies are under development for LCD backlighting, LED general lighting, LED point source lighting, and automotive lamps applications.
