LUXEON Altilon Moves Automotive Headlamps Into the 21st Century
Philips Lumileds today officially moved automotive forward lighting ahead with release of its LUXEON Altilon power LEDs. Now, vehicle headlamp designers are free to use the latest solid-state technology to rethink the look and function of forward lighting. Its small size, high brightness, and lower energy consumption make LUXEON Altilon a perfect choice for the next generation of advanced forward lighting solutions, high and low beam applica...
Active matrix OLEDs feature excellent optical performance under extreme viewing angles,
CMEL offers active matrix OLEDs with unbeatable optical performance, even under extreme viewing angles, characterize OLEDs. With an active area of 165x99mm the 7.6in P0760WVLB-T (CM02013) is currently the largest available active-matrix OLED from CMEL.

OSRAM’s LEDs Enable Manufacture of Ultra-Thin LCDs
OSRAM Opto Semiconductors has introduced what it says is the smallest 1 W LEDs for backlighting LCD panels with plenty of light from an extremely small emitter. Measuring just 3 x 3 x 1.6 mm, the two white versions of the new OSLON LX LEDs are perfect for side injection into light guides with a thickness of 2 to 4 mm so the displays can be made with ultra thin profiles. Thanks to the optimized lens, the light can be injected into light guides w...
