A light-emitting diode (<a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>) is a semiconductor light source. LEDs are used as indicator lamps in many devices and are increasingly used for other lighting. Introduced as a practical electronic component in 1962, early <a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>s emitted low-intensity red light, but modern versions are available across the visible, ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths, with very high brightness. When a light-emitting diode is forward biased, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence and the color of the light is determined by the energy gap of the semiconductor. <a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>s are often small in area, and integrated optical components may be used to shape its radiation pattern. <a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>s present many advantages over incandescent light sources including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, smaller size, and faster switching. Light-emitting diodes are used in applications as diverse as replacements for aviation lighting, automotive lighting (particularly brake lamps, turn signals and indicators) as well as in traffic signals. <a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>s have allowed new text, video displays, and sensors to be developed, while their high switching rates are also useful in advanced communications technology. Infrared <a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>s are also used in the remote control units of many commercial products including televisions, DVD players, and other domestic appliances. Technology has advanced to a point where <a href="http://www.rcglobalindustries.com/" title="LED Lights">LED</a>’s are set to become the standard lighting source for the 21st century.
