Optical characteristics: white LEDs

Three or more LEDs of different Colors

+ The more colours one has to mix, the more control one has in producing white light with a high color rendering index.

+ Photons from each LED contribute directly to the light intensity, i.e. no conversion efficiencies have to be considered.

+ Extensive range of hue’s can be obtained

- Optical control, coloured shadows

Photometry of LEDs: intensity

Some LEDs have a very narrow radiation pattern (FWHM 2°)

• Large distance to detector and small detector aperture required.

• CIE 127 standardisation: “averaged LED intensity” at 316 mm (A) or 100 mm (B) distance and 1 cm2 detector area.

LED penetration into General Lighting: obstacles : lumen maintenance

• LED lifetime is sometimes specified in MTBF (mean time between failure).

• Various LED manufacturers predict LED source life up to 100K hours

• “Lumen Maintenance” is even more important.• End-of-Life specification: light output has

dropped to 70% compared to the original light output:

50.000 hrs !

LED penetration into General Lighting: obstacles : price

Pro and contra: pro• Saturated colours, dynamic colour effects with a

large colour gamut• High efficiency for applications with coloured light

(e.g. traffic lights)• Liftetime up to 50 000 hours (70% definition) • Vibration-proof• Low voltage• No mercury• No UV and IR radiation• Instantaneous switch-on • Easy dimmable

Pro and contra: contra• Reproducibility is difficult (semiconductor

processing); binning (sorting by intensity, colour, forward voltage) is required

• Colour and intensity shift with temperature, driving current and life time

• Low output/device

• Low efficacy for white (but is improving)

• Price
