Dr. Hiroshi Amano, Nobel Laureate in Physics 2014, will deliver a lecture on October 3rd at Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan. The topic of the lecture is “The History of the Development of Blue & UV-LEDs and Their Future Prospects.”

At Display Week 2018, the flourish of Micro LED can be seen from the keynote speech on the opening day. During the speech, Zhang Deqiang, the CEO of Visionox has discussed the technical prospect of OLED, and Douglas Lanman, Ph.D of Oculus Research was also on spot to discuss the eye-tracking technology in VR device. In addition, among correlated persons and experts in display field, SID specially invited Hiroshi Amano, a Nobel Prize Winner, to share the development situation of Micro LED technology in the future.

Prof. Hiroshi Amano, a member of Aledia’s Scientific Advisory Board, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics, alongside Shuji Nakamura and Isamu Akasaki for their roles in inventing the blue light emitting diode (LED), that has revolutionized the lighting and display worlds.

This year’s Nobel Laureates are rewarded for having invented a new energy-efficient and environment-friendly light source – the blue light-emitting diode (LED). In the spirit of Alfred Nobel the Prize rewards an invention of greatest benefit to mankind; using blue LEDs, white light can be created in a new way. With the advent of LED lamps we now have more long-lasting and more efficient alternatives to older light sources.
