Plessey's CTO Dr Keith Strickland said: "We have developed LED die for a number of applications and our GaN on silicon technology works particularly well in higher power applications. This current process technology will become the base for application specific LEDs – ASLEDs – which bridge the gap between LED component suppliers, solid state lighting fixture designers and OEMs."
Plessey offers blue die in various wavelength options. Capable of generating a light output efficiency of more than 60%, the dice are available with blue die wavelengths ranging from 420nm to 480nm and with power outputs of up to 10W.
