NanoMarkets Projects Significant Opportunities for LED Phosphors Driven by Shift Toward LED Lighting in General Illumination Markets

Leave a comment

NanoMarkets announces the release of a new report, titled “Market Opportunities for LED Phosphors in Lighting Applications 2012,” that analyzes the moneymaking opportunities for LED phosphor suppliers in the lighting sector over the next eight years.

Glen Allen, Virginia – May 31, 2012 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets announces the release of a new report, titled “Market Opportunities for LED Phosphors in Lighting Applications 2012,” that analyzes the moneymaking opportunities for LED phosphor suppliers in the lighting sector over the next eight years. NanoMarkets estimates that the total market value of LED phosphors used in lighting applications will grow from about $525 million in 2012 to a value of over $730 million by 2015 and to over $1.6 billion by the end of the forecast period in 2019. This growth represents a CAGR of over 17 percent over the eight-year forecast period.

Additional details about the report are available at: http://www.nanomarkets.net

About the Report:

This new NanoMarkets report provides an in-depth analysis and forecast of the LED phosphor market in the next eight years as it relates to the fabrication of white LEDs for lighting applications. It builds off the extensive experience that NanoMarkets has in the area of solid-state lighting and related materials. The report examines some of the latest market strategies, products and technical developments in the area of LED phosphors, and it identifies how performance improvements are growing some addressable markets for phosphors, especially in the general illumination segment(s). The report also includes NanoMarkets’ assessments of the strategies of several of the leading firms active in the LED phosphors space, and, as always with NanoMarkets reports, this report contains granular eight-year forecasts of the inorganic LED phosphors shipments in both volume and value terms, with breakouts by type of phosphor and by phosphor deposition technology.

Key players mentioned in the report include Seoul Semiconductor, Intematix, Mitsubishi, Nichia, Toyoda Gosei, Dow, Osram, GE, Philips, and others.

From the Report:

A major shift toward more efficient, long-lifetime LED lighting is underway and is expected to continue over next decade, with many governments around the world using the regulatory process to mandate higher efficiency lighting products. During this period, LED phosphor suppliers will enjoy an expanding market for their products, especially in the general illumination sectors. At the same time, the market value for LED phosphors in display backlighting is expected to decline, as growth in the underlying display markets are not expected to keep up with advancements that are leading to fewer LEDs-per-device and, hence, reduced consumption of phosphor materials.

NanoMarkets believes that the moneymaking opportunities for LED phosphor suppliers are centered on the following interrelated key characteristics. First, LED phosphors that provide better luminous efficacy, such as through higher internal quantum efficiency or reduced down-conversion loss, will help LED lighting better compete with fluorescent lighting for market share. Second, phosphors that provide better color rendering are also still in demand, especially in the general illumination and display backlighting markets, where LEDs still perform poorly in comparison to the traditional incandescent lighting. Finally, phosphors and phosphor blends that enable LED lighting component manufacturers to better provide application-specific color temperatures are also needed.

NanoMarkets today has announced the addition of a new report to its publication schedule titled “LED Phosphor Markets – 2012” (Nano-541) that will be released the week of May 28th.

Glen Allen, Virginia – May 15, 2012 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today has announced the addition of a new report to its publication schedule titled “LED Phosphor Markets – 2012” (Nano-541) that will be released the week of May 28th. The report is available at pre-publication rates through May 29th. For additional information about the report people can visit the NanoMarkets website: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/led_phosphor_markets_2012

About the Report:

In some countries, LEDs are expected to be the dominant general lighting technology by the end of the decade. The primary driver for this transition is the high efficiency and long lifetimes of LED lighting and a major reason that many governments around the world are promoting their use through the regulatory process.

Nevertheless, this shift in technology use has not been entirely welcomed by consumers, primarily because LEDs often render colors poorly compared with the traditional incandescent bulb. Another concern is the warmth or coolness of LED light, which is not always judged attractive by consumers. Also, variations in LED color temperature vary with viewing angle, sometimes making the experience of being in an LED – lighted room less than satisfactory.

Most LED manufacturers now see these issues as being critical to the long-term success of LED lighting creating a major opportunity for firms making the LED lighting phosphors that control the color rendering and color temperatures of the LEDs. Makers of phosphor materials and related products can expect the same high growth that the LED lighting market is enjoying. In addition, NanoMarkets believes that the LED lighting market is still open to new kinds of proprietary phosphor solutions, with the potential for phosphor firms to build their brands and create protectable IP.

This new NanoMarkets report provides an in-depth analysis and forecast of the LED phosphor market in the next eight years. It builds off the extensive experience that NanoMarkets has in the area of solid-state lighting and related materials.

This report examines the latest market strategies, products and technical developments in the area of LED phosphors. We identify how performance improvements are likely to help grow addressable markets for phosphors, with an especial focus on general illumination, outdoor/street lighting and backlighting and where the opportunities are to be found to make money in the LED phosphor market.

The report also includes NanoMarkets’ assessments of the strategies of leading firms active in the LED phosphors space. And, as always with NanoMarkets reports, this report contains granular eight-year forecasts of the inorganic LED phosphors shipments in volume and value terms, with breakouts by type of phosphor. This report is required reading, not just for strategy planners at phosphor firms, but for those throughout the solid-state lighting industry.
