LED(light emitting diode)

What is led?• A light emitting diode (LED) is

essentially a PN junction opto-semiconductor that emits a monochromatic (single color) light when operated in a forward biased direction.

• LEDs convert electrical energy into light energy. They are frequently used as "pilot" lights in electronic appliances to indicate whether the circuit is closed or not.

Function of LED• LEDs convert electrical energy into light

energy.

Working of LED(1)

• The light-emitting section of an LED is made by joining n-type and p-type semiconductors together to form a PN junction.

• When the PN junction is forward-biased, electrons in the n side are excited across the PN junction and into the p side, where they combine with holes.

• As the electrons combine with the holes, photons are emitted.

Working of LED(2)

• The PN -junction section of an LED is encased in an epoxy shell that is doped with light scattering particles to diffuse light and make the LED appear brighter.

• Often a reflector placed beneath the semiconductor is used to direct the light upward.

Benefits of LEDLEDs offer enormous benefits over

traditional incandescent lampsincluding:

• Energy savings (up to 85% less power than incandescent)

• Reduction in maintenance costs • Increased visibility in daylight

and adverse weather conditions
