Infrared LEDs have been around for over half a century and have been put to use in myriad applications since their development. Before we take a look at some of these uses, though, here are some fun ...

A new process developed by Dr. Liangfeng Sun and his team holds promise for improving the production and capabilities of the infrared light emitting diode, or LED, for use in technologies ranging from ...

LED epitaxial wafer and chip maker Epistar has developed SWIR (short-wavelength infrared; wavelength exceeding 1,100nm) LED chips for use in non-invasive bio-sensing applications, such as measuring ...

Through use of an unique aspheric lens, the L8506 infrared (IR) light emitting diode (LED) emits a light beam with a directivity of just ±5°. The collimated light beam discharged by the IR LED ...

Infrared spectrometers are expensive and powerful instruments scientists use to analyze the chemical makeup of a sample, and a new research project has demonstrated what this technology might look ...

Osram Opto Semiconductors was able to sink a surface-mountable infrared (IR) LED into a printed-circuit board, creating what it claims is the first the first flush-mountable version of its kind. The ...
