LEDs and Laser Diodes Solid State Lighting Applications, Technologies and Market Opportunites Demand for light emitting diodes and laser diodes continues to soar as prices fall. Driven by revenue sources ranging from government research grants to next-generation DVD players, the solid state lighting industry continues to grow. In many different parts of the industry, however, revenue growth is inconsistent, as prices continue to plummet. ABI Research furnishes a global strategic overview of the different sectors and the forces that guide their development. The study specifically analyzes major LED and laser diode markets, technologies, and players. It also reviews external factors that may effect the growth of the LED industry, such as the burgeoning OLED industry and the current shortage of Indium. Annual revenues by wavelength, segment, and region break down the market dynamics of the diverse LED sector, and potential applications are reviewed from the perspective of demand. What Does This Report Answer? What are the major market trends in the LED and LD industries? How fast are LED and LD markets growing? Which solid state lighting technologies, and which wavelengths, are the most profitable? What regions are adopting solid state lighting most quickly? Which are the major companies in the field?
