Since the first light-emitting diode (LED) was invented by Holonyak
and Bevacqua in 1962, LEDs have made remarkable progress in the
past few decades with the rapid development of epitaxy growth, chip
design and manufacture, packaging structure, processes, and
packaging materials. LEDs have superior characteristics such as
high efficiency, small size, long life, low power consumption, and
high reliability. The market for white LED is growing rapidly in

high efficiency, small size, long life, low power consumption, and
high reliability. The market for white LED is growing rapidly in
various applications. It has been widely accepted that white LEDs
will be the fourth illumination source to substitute the
incandescent, fluorescent, and high-pressure sodium lamps. With the
development of LED chip and packaging technologies, the efficiency
of high power white LED will broaden the application markets of
LEDs while changing the lighting concepts of our lives.
In LED Packaging for Lighting Applications, Professors
Liu and Luo cover the full spectrum of design, manufacturing, and
testing. Many concepts are proposed for the first time, and readers
will benefit from the concurrent engineering and co-design
approaches to advanced engineering design of LED products.
* One of the only books to cover LEDs from package design to
manufacturing to testing
* Focuses on the design of LED packaging and its applications
such as road lights
* Includes design methods and experiences necessary for LED
engineers, especially optical and thermal design
* Introduces novel LED packaging structures and manufacturing
processes, such as ASLP
* Covers reliability considerations, the most challenging problem
for the LED industry
* Provides measurement and testing standards, which are critical
for LED development, for both LED and LED fixtures
* Codes and demonstrations available from the book’s

This book is ideal for practicing engineers working in design or
packaging at LED companies and graduate students preparing for work
in industry. This book also provides a helpful introduction for
advanced undergraduates, graduates, researchers, lighting
designers, and product managers interested in the fundamentals of
LED design and production.
