Bridgelux Enables The LED Revolution From Behind The Scenes

LED lighting is a fascinating technology.  It’s not like incandescent lighting – where you heat up a filament until it glows (with the inevitable result that you generate 90% heat and relatively little light). It’s not like fluorescent either – where an electric current excites a mercury vapor which ultimately leads the phosphor coating on the lamp tube to glow. No, solid state light emitting diodes are a completely different technology.  They are semiconductor devices that produce light as a consequence of an electric current. And unlike incandescents and fluorescents, LED lights are directional – you can focus them in one direction. And you can talk to them.
