Abstract

This paper describes the status and trends of visible LED (light-emitting diode) technology. LED technology is compared to conventional incandescent and fluorescent lighting technology. Performance and cost, the key issues which need to be improved to enable LEDs to substantially penetrate the illumination market are discussed.
