With the rise popularity of LED lightings and the increasing of LED manufacturers in China, LED chips manufacturers have a great heavy pressure on price competition. Taiwanese factories have also accelerated the deployment of various LED niche applications. UV/IR LEDs is the next strategic development goal of major manufacturers.
According to the statistics of the Optoelectronics Association (PIDA), in 2013, the output value of LED components was 4.7 billion US dollars, and the market share was 25%, ranking the highest in the world. According to PIDA, under the conditions of GaN, AlGaInP and AlGaAs, manufacturers We continue to develop niche-type products and break through the existing market structure with differentiation. Especially under the driving force of LED technology, UV LEDs are recognized from banknotes, applied to hardening of optical resins, insects, printing, and to the market of sterilization and disinfection. It is estimated that global UV LEDs will grow at an annual growth rate of 20% in the next few years. At the same time, IR LEDs will also be applied from remote control, mouse, communication, to mobile phones, vehicles, and infrared monitoring, infrared medical applications and other application fields.
In addition to demonstrating the strength of LED lighting components and lighting applications, this year's Taipei International Photonics Week-Taiwan LED Lighting Exhibition brings together UV/IR LED epitaxial wafers, crystal giants, Jingdian, Longda, Guanglei, Guangfu, Xuming, and its packaging manufacturers - Guangbao, Yiguang, Longda, Taiwan Semiconductor Lighting, etc., jointly showcase the unique competitive, high-tech UV/IR LED zone, and echo the biomedical optoelectronics Display areas such as display, 3D printing, and optical communication to showcase the advantages of photoelectric
LED CHIP industry.
