Colourful LEDs made from a material known as perovskite could lead to LED displays which are both cheaper and easier to manufacture in future. A hybrid form of perovskite -- the same type of material ...

LED lighting is bringing energy-efficient light to all corners of the globe. This year's Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to three Japanese scientists for the invention of blue light-emitting diodes ...

Some prototype flat-panel displays already use quantum dot LEDs. Quantum dots, which are semiconducting inorganic nanocrystals, have unique electronic properties that make them ideal for LEDs, ...

They’re in your phone, TV, car headlights, remote controls—even traffic lights. LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are everywhere.

Over on their YouTube channel [Science Buddies] shows us how to embed LEDs in soft robots. Soft robots can be made entirely or partially from silicone. In the video you see an example of a claw-like ...

It’s refreshing to find products that are made in the US and sold into China since the reverse is more often the case. (The most recent figures show the US international trade deficit in goods and ...

Their inventions have found their way into bedside lamps, television screens, and smartphones, and have the potential to give light to the 1.5 billion people who don't have access to electricity grids ...

A team of researchers has managed to boost the amount of light an LED emits by 60 percent simply by shaping its outer surface to resemble the outside of a firefly’s lantern. Researchers from the Korea ...

A hybrid form of perovskite - the same type of material which has recently been found to make highly efficient solar cells that could one day replace silicon - has been used to make low-cost, easily ...

This year's Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to three Japanese scientists for the invention of blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs), a technology that has touched society in innumerable ways and ...
