This year’s Nobel laureates have been rewarded for having invented a new energy-efficient and environment-friendly light source – the blue light-emitting diode (LED). As about one fourth of world electricity consumption is used for lighting purposes, the LEDs contribute to saving the Earth’s resources. Materials consumption is also diminished as LEDs last up to 100,000 hours, compared to 1,000 for incandescent bulbs and 10,000 hours for fluorescent lights. The LED lamp holds great […]
