Nanotechnology leads to better, cheaper LEDs for phones and lighting

Thursday, September 25, 2014 - 00:33 in Physics & Chemistry

Using a new nanoscale structure, electrical engineers have increased the brightness and efficiency of LEDs made of organic materials -- flexible carbon-based sheets -- by 57 percent. The researchers also report their method should yield similar improvements in LEDs made in inorganic, silicon-based materials used most commonly today.
