This book covers the industrial aspects of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for solid-state lighting (SSL). The author targets his approach primarily to industrial engineers, in order to guide them in the LED industry. The coverage is highly-applied and based on author’s 32 years of experience in the LED industry and academia. The book starts by addressing the needs that new engineers encounter in an LED company, e.g., characterization, manufacturing, and applications. Later chapters introduce deeper science for more experienced engineers and academic readers. As a result, this book can benefit LED engineers throughout their career.
The practical information you find in this book, you will not find in standard LED textbooks. Dr. Hisashi Masui possesses deep knowledge of device packaging from a standpoint of a graduate student, postdoctoral scholar, and also a leading industry engineer who has worked in the LED Industry both in the US and internationally.
Nonetheless, a wide range of engineers in the LED industry should benefit from this book, as the scope spans from the LED physics essence, LED device structure, product ingredients, manufacturing methods, applications, to customer communications from a viewpoint of industrial engineers. After providing a brief chapter of Introduction, the book starts with a discussion on Characterization of LED devices for a reason that this is the first burden that new engineers owe. Chapter 2 describes what quantities the industry is interested in and how they are measured. This chapter provides you knowledge of language and terminology that the LED industry uses. The subsequent Chap. 3 discusses various types of LED devices and how they are fabricated. This somewhat deep knowledge in LEDs will definitely take you further in the industry. You will find various “layers” in the LED: For many people the LED means LED lighting devices or light engines, for others it implies LED light bulbs or lighting fixture, while physics students may envision a pn junction or semiconductor chips. This chapter reveals what is inside an LED product, in order to establish connections between a semiconductor chip and a lighting fixture. Chapter 4 provides a deep dive into physics of each technology in the LED. This chapter should inform you what scientists and engineers of each field are concerned with the most, to help understanding and conversation with them. Because of the deep-dive nature, semiconductor physics of the undergraduate level may be a prerequisite to survive this chapter. Finally, related topics of optics are laid out in Chap. 5. These topics cannot be missed when LED science and engineering are considered.
