Light emitting diode
• Early light emitting diodes (LED) could only produce light in a narrow band of wavelengths.
• LED lighting was made possible from the mid 1990s with the development of white light LEDs.
An application of LEDs Red, blue and green LEDs

• LED is made of two semiconductor materials joining together to form a junction.
• A forward voltage across the materials causes electron to ‘jump’ across the junction and visible light is emitted.
• The energy efficiency of LEDs is very high.

• Our sense of colour is due to the response of our eyes to light of different wavelengths.
Response of eye to light of different wavelengths
• Our sense of the colour of a light source depends on– the spectrum of the light
emitted by the source, and– the varying sensitivity of
our eyes to light of different wavelengths.
The sensitivity of three kinds of cone cells to light of different wavelengths

Illumination measurement
• Luminous flux is the amount of light energy emitted per unit time by a light source, with the sensitivity of human eye taken into account.
• The unit of luminous flux is the lumen (lm).
Light output and efficiency of a light source
A light source of higher luminous flux gives out more light energy per unit time.
![Page 11: Domestic use of electricity](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061500/568145b1550346895db2b338/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• Luminous efficacy measures how efficient an electrical light source produces light. Mathematically,
• The unit of luminous efficacy is the lumen per watt (lm W –1).
The CFL has a higher efficacy than the incandescent lamp of similar light output as the CFL consumes less electrical power.

• The illuminance of a light source on a surface is
provided that the light source is small in size and the light source emits light evenly in all directions.
• The illuminance E produced by a light source decreases with the square of the distance r.
• This is known as the inverse-square law.

• Note that the equation applies only when the light source is small in size (ideally a point source), and the light source emits light evenly in all directions.
In these cases the inverse-square law does not hold.
