Osram Opto expands horticultural LED line with purple and broader white spectra

Osram Opto Semiconductors has formally announced two new LED families targeted at horticultural lighting applications that we first saw on the LightFair International (LFI) show floor. The Duris S5 Purple LEDs have energy peaks at 450 and 660 nm in the blue and red regions. Meanwhile, the company also has new phosphor-converted white LEDs in the Duris S5 portfolio that feature a broader spectral power distribution (SPD) with enhanced far-red energy.
