LED software industry to face up to the key technology innovation urgent need to speed up

Said the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Su Bo held in the days before the third session of the green industry conference, from five aspects to accelerate the development of energy-saving environmental protection industry, promote the development of green industry, promote the semiconductor lighting industry has become one of the important items. The plan of action for development of LED industry ministry released at the end of 2012 "(20132015 years)" clearly put forward to promote all aspects of the LED industry chain key technology innovation and industrialization.

In November 11th the opening of the tenth session of China International Semiconductor Lighting Forum, Vice Minister of the Ministry of science and technology Cao Jianlin said, ten years in the field of semiconductor lighting Chinese developed rapidly, has become one of the global semiconductor lighting R & D and production center.

Policies to boost the rapid development of LED industry

According to the reporter, by the end of 2003, China launched the "fifteen" National Science and technology program "semiconductor lighting industrial technology development," a major project, so that China's semiconductor lighting project entered a substantive stage. In ten years, in the promotion of national semiconductor lighting project and a series of favorable policies, China's LED lighting technology in the field of rapid progress, not only made great breakthroughs in key technologies of high-power white LED chip industry, but also in the core technology of major equipment on smoothly. As the successful development of 48 production MOCVD prototype, the indicators of production power type LED chip is good; independent research and development for the nitride HVPE device, using laser stripping and self separation technology to obtain high quality 2 inch free-standing GaN substrates. Some of the core equipment with independent intellectual property rights to develop and break the monopoly of foreign equipment, greatly promoting the establishment and development of China's semiconductor lighting independent intellectual property rights system.

At the same time, the scale of system integration technology research and significant application of significant results, China has become the world's LED full-color display, solar LED, landscape lighting and other products of the largest production and export country.

Insiders admitted that the LED industry, the biggest positive is the industrial policy. Since the elimination of incandescent roadmap released since 2016, China gradually banned incandescent, incandescent lamps will be completely eliminated. The next 3 - 5 years, the state subsidies for the LED industry is about $8 billion - $10 billion, the terminal price subsidy rate is expected to be 30% - 50%, the total subsidy may be as high as $160 - $.

According to estimates, if China's incandescent lamps in use, all replaced with energy-saving lamps, the annual saving 48 billion kwh, equivalent to nearly 48 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions, if further replacement for LED lighting products, will bring greater energy-saving effect. In the case of energy saving and emission reduction is becoming more and more severe, the promotion of LED lighting has become an important part of fine energy saving.

Independent intellectual property rights is the Achilles heel

The latest report by the U.S. Winter Green Research Research Institute said that from the beginning of this year to 2019, LED lighting market will grow at an annual rate of 45%, is expected to grow from $4 billion 800 million in 2012 to $42 billion in 2019. The report believes that growth driven by greater attention from consumers and quality improvement.

According to the Ministry of software and integrated circuit promotion center responsible person, the current global LED industry can be divided into three camps, Japan, European and American manufacturers as the first camp, the South Korean enterprises to Chinese domestic enterprises for the second camp, third camps.

Some experts told reporters that the current LED lighting market in China has already formed a certain scale of the industry, but also faced technical support for sustainable development of resources is not enough, industry aggregation, development environment need to be optimized, business promotion mode needs further exploration and other problems.

"China's LED packaging equipment, packaging materials, high-grade chip packaging all rely on imports, enterprise scale is not big enough, lack of research into the packaging process, technical level is not high, in addition, lack of professional personnel engaged in LED packaging, too little on the LED principle, structure design, material, optical and semiconductor with knowledge people, which seriously restrict the development of the industry. A LED upstream enterprise responsible person.

"China's LED industry started late, while in the LED core technology and patents on the basis of foreign monopoly, in order to continue healthy development, we must solve the problem of independent intellectual property rights. "The insiders explained, such as" white packaging technology, power LED package cooling technology key encapsulation technology often incompatible with the foreign patent package, such as packaging production scale and a large number of exports, are likely to encounter patent disputes. "

Strategic opportunity period

In accordance with the six ministries of the State Council issued the semiconductor lighting energy saving industry planning, 12th Five-Year, China's LED chip localization rate will reach more than 80%, silicon based LED chips made an important breakthrough. The quality of the luminous efficiency of core components and application products reached the international advanced level in the same period; by 2015, 60W more than ordinary incandescent lighting are all eliminated, the market share will drop to below 10%, LED functional lighting products market share of more than 20%; LED energy-saving lighting industry output value of the average annual growth of around 30%, 2015 reached 450 billion the application of LED lighting products yuan, 180 billion yuan; the formation of 10-15 master core technologies, with more independent intellectual property rights and the well-known brand, quality and competitive enterprises.

A Shenzhen LED company official told reporters, the next three to five years is the upgrading of the lighting industry historical opportunity, LED industry is expected to end Nishajuxia situation, a large number of production enterprises will be eliminated. LED products will break
