UK's £15.5 million investment in 12 lighting technologies


The UK Technology Strategy Board (TSB) announced funding for 12 innovative research projects to accelerate the development of more energy efficient lighting products, lasers and displays. The R&D program is designed to help British manufacturers stay ahead of the competition and contribute to climate change in the UK.

These projects will enable joint research and development and technical cooperation between industries and between industry and academia, including more energy-efficient LEDs, laser diodes, white-light fibre lasers and holographic optics. There are also projects that combine emerging technologies with existing technologies for working systems.

The total value of the 12 projects exceeded £15.5 million, the Technology Strategy Committee contributed more than £7 million, and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (ESPRC) contributed nearly £1 million to five of the projects. .

Among them, some LED projects are as follows:

Title: 21st Century LED Lighting

Introduction: The new insulated ultra-thin GaN LED has a light output of 95% and can be used in general lighting applications.

Collaborators: PhotonStar LED, University of Cambridge (Cambridge)

Title: Low-cost holographic optical components for next-generation lighting

Introduction: The technology for developing sidelighting products for UK buildings. In the past, silver halide holographic optical components were used, with advanced LEDs as the light source. This will increase the luminous efficiency of LED lighting screens from 45% to 90% and will save a lot of energy.

Collaborators: Harman Technology Ltd, De Montfort University (De Montfort University), Concord (Part of Havells-Sylvania)

Title: Using High Power LED Backlight Modules to Improve Display Screen Performance

Introduction: Improve the performance of dynamic images of display screens by applying high-performance LED modules and emerging optical systems.

Collaborators: GE Aviation Systems (GE Aviation Systems), University of Greenwich (University of Greenwich), University of Abertay Dundee (University of Abertay Dundee), National Physical Laboratory (National Physical Laboratory), Thin Film Solutions Ltd, Raymarine plc, NCR Financial Solutions Group Ltd, Design LED Products Ltd
