Light‐Emitting Diodes [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Abstract The field of photonics starts with the generation of light. The efficient generation of highly controllable light can indeed be accomplished with light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), which are, in principle, capable of generating any single‐colored light as well as white light; the latter with a 20 times greater efficiency than conventional lightbulbs. Today, the infrared, entire visible, and ultraviolet spectrum regions can be covered by light‐emitting semiconductors, mainly AlGaInP and AlGaInN compound semiconductors. In this article, fundamental research in LEDs will be presented and reviewed to give a short summary of the development of solid‐state LEDs during the last few decades.
