SUMMARY
In 2007, GaN-based LEDs will reach a higher luminous efficiency than
fluorescents. The ramping-up of solid-state lighting business will really
start at that time, in particular for automotive applications, both for
interior and exterior lighting. HB-LEDs have really strong market
opportunities in the automotive, many reasons for that, among them:
- Important reliability (e.g. lifetime much larger than needed)
- Use for internal and external lighting,
- Low consumption and power saving
- Mercury free
The small size of LEDs also enables:
- New design possibilities and high tech appearance
- Increased integration
Moreover, in term of security, LEDs have fast reaction time: LEDs light up
around 250 milliseconds quicker than bulbs. Therefore, at 100 km/h speed, that
means a gain in braking distance of 7 meters. HBLEDs have large market
opportunities for front lighting for cars as the HBLEDs performance will
increase, fewer chips will be necessary (less than 15 should be necessary in
2009 for all functions). The cost objective for auto (10$/klm) will be reached
in 2010 for a wide diffusion of HBLEDs in front lighting. However, HBLEDs
should be implemented before this date (around 2007) on high-end cars.
Today a high-end car can have up to 200 LEDs and this figure is expected to
grow in the future: it could be up to 800 LEDs in 2009. The market for HB-LEDs
for front light is just starting. We forecast that the market for automotive
external lighting will be 40% of the total HBLED automotive market in 2009.
Regarding the white LEDs market, it will be shared by 5 major players:
Lumileds, Osram, Nichia, Toyoda Gosei and Cree. Moreover, the recent interest
for HUDs (Head-Up Displays) in cars should also benefit from the HBLEDs
technology. HBLEDs are today bright enough to be used as a backlight on a FPD
instead of bulbs.
For each of the different applications where solid state lighting could be
used in a car, the report describes:
