Guangzhou, China – Increases in LED power and output over the past decade have fueled adoption first in mobile device displays, then in flat panel televisions and now in general lighting applications. Asia currently leads the market transition to LEDs for general lighting, driven especially by swift penetration in China, according to analyst firm McKinsey & Company, which projects China’s compound annual growth rate for LED-based general lighting to be 43 percent through 2016. Dow Corning – a global innovator in silicones and silicon-based technology – expects a key factor in this growth will be adoption in China of high refractive index (RI) materials, such as phenyl-based optical silicones that can significantly boost light output without costly investment in more powerful LED dies.
