2. How Do LEDs Work? An LED is a semiconductor device (diode) that emits light when an electric current passes through it. The diode produces a monochromatic (one colour) light on a single wavelength ranging from red (˜700 nanometres) to blue-violet (˜400 nanometres). Because LEDs produce a pure colour of light, tinted lenses are not needed to filter the light to the desired colour. As a result, all of the visible light is projected from the LED. LEDs consume very little power – they are up to 90 percent efficient, which means that only a small proportion of the input energy is consumed to produce heat. In comparison, traditional light sources (e.g., incandescent bulbs) are 5 to 10 percent efficient, with 90 percent or more of the input energy wasted in the form of heat. Another type of LED currently under development is made up of semiconducting organic polymers. These organic LEDs (OLEDs) are only about 10 percent efficient but are expected to be less expensive to manufacture than regular LEDs.

3. Solid State Lighting Basics (LED) Solid State Lighting (SSL): Lighting that uses semiconductors to convert electricity into light. Other lighting technologies use filaments, gas, or plasma. Thermal Management: A heat sink is a means of dissipating heat. Appropriate thermal management is critical in LED systems to reach the expected product lifespan. Life (hours): For LED products, lamp life is considered to be the point at which the light output has depreciated to 70% of the initial output.

4. Light Emitting Diodes • Solid State Light Source • Extremely Flexible • Potentially Long Lamp Life • Dynamic Colour Opportunities • Poor White Colour Rendering

5. More about LEDs • LEDs are generally single points sources that stand-alone or are mounted in arrays • LEDs are directional and ‘aim’ their light in a fairly straight way. Lenses can change this characteristic • LEDs get very hot and need effective ways to dissipate the heat or they will fail prematurely • LEDs are getting more and more Efficacious with time

6. LED Luminaire Efficiency CW LED 4100K-6500K (CRI =70-80) WW LED 2800K-3500K (CRI >85) http://www.netl.doe.gov/ssl/publications.html

7. OLEDs • OLEDs are flat ‘sheets’ that are made up of multiple layers of thin films that when sandwiched together, emit light. • At present OLED development is limited, but they hold promise as potential replacements for light fixtures

8. OLED Sources

9. OLED Sources: White Light Osram Opto-Semiconductors • 25 lumens per watt (the highest known efficiency achieved to date for white OLEDs) • produced by applying a standard external inorganic phosphor to a blue-emitting phosphorescent polymer device with a peak luminous efficacy of 14 lm/W

10. OLED Sources: Colour Changing Light Osram Opto-Semiconductors • the first polymer-OLED light source based on three printable polymer inks emitting in the RGB portion of the spectrum • the colours from dark blue to white, or any color preference, offering freedom of design and innovative illumination solutions, can be regulated

12. Dimming LEDs In a sense all LEDs are dimmable, the chip (LED) is not what dictates if it can be dimmed. The driver (like a fluorescent ballast) is what has to have the internal components to allow this to work.

13. LED Lamps 9W LED 40W equivalent (120V) 25,000 hrs 3000K 80+ CRI 7W LED 25W equivalent (120V) 40,000 hrs 230 Lumens Warm or cool white

14. Lamps: Conventional • First DOE sponsored technology competition. • Intent to have manufacturers develop high-quality / high efficiency solid state lighting products to replace the common light bulb. • $10M for 60W inc replacement / $5M for PAR38 inc replacement. • Winning products must be similar to the products targeted for replacement, in terms of size, shape, operating environment, and light quantity, distribution, and quality. • “60W” must deliver minimum 900 lumens / 27K-30K / 25,000 hours. “More than 90 lm/W.” • PAR38 must deliver minimum 1350 lumens / 27K-30K / 25,000 hours. • Philips submitted first entry for 60W replacement (10W). Only 1400 sample lamps nationally & LDL has 4! (current testing for lumen depreciation).

19. LED Testing Standards (proposed)

20. LED Performance Standards Programs • Energy Star • Since 2008, the ENERGY STAR Solid-State Lighting Program has taken the initiative to run thorough tests on commercially available SSL products according to the industry standards. • Products that pass the examination will be rewarded with an ENERGY STAR-approved label. These labels serve as a symbol of confidence to consumers. • DesignLights Consortium • Much like ENERGY STAR, DesignLights Consortium (DLC) conducts regular tests on SSL products. Upon adequate test results, each individual product will thus be placed on their Qualified Products List (QPL). • DLC works closely with ENERGY STAR, and their primary role is to cover products which fall in a category where the corresponding standards have yet to be completed by ENERGY STAR (i.e. streetlights).

21. LED Performance Standards Programs Lighting Facts • This DOE sponsored program issues special Lighting Facts CM labels for SSL products all across North America. On these labels are convenient performance data for each corresponding SSL product, thus provide consumers with a quick glance of how well each product compares to LM-79 criteria.
