LED industry chain can be divided into five parts. First chain is the raw materials; second, LED upstream industries, including epitaxial materials and chip manufacturing; Third, LED midstream industry, including a variety of LED accessories and packaging; Fourth, LED downstream industries, mainly including LED application products industry. Fifth, test equipment and production equipment.
Energy crisis and energy-conserving improvement of environmental consciousness make global the intersection of LED and the intersection of lighting and the intersection of prospect and brightness more and more of market. Under the circumstances that the market and double interests of regulation stimulate, the global scale of LED industry presents the tendency of snowball. At present, lighting industry form U.S.A., Europe, industry that Asia stand like the legs of a tripod, distribute with the competition pattern already, among them Asia takes Japan, South Korea, China as the core. U.S.A. and Japan are in rank first in the field of upstream chip apparatus; Taiwan of China does not allow and look small in upstream chip and encapsulated capability of state of being middling either; In Europe, traditional the intersection of lighting and the intersection of giant and Philip, Europe bright department have the advantage enters LED lighting industry. Meanwhile, because the voice of global energy-conserving emission reduction is higher and higher, it is not merely the above-mentioned several LED lighting developed in industry countries or regions, the demands for LED products of other countries are greater and greater. Can be found out in the lighting exhibition of Frankfort of Germany of the maximum of the world in recent years, LED has already occupied the absolute predominance position of the exhibition, various LED new products emerge in an endless stream.
At present, LED lighting majority is applied to the commercial customer, because the great amount of price restricts its popularization in consumers, if can reduce more than 30% more at the existing price, may make LED occupy more share on the lighting market. So, the scientific and technological content lighted how to improve LED, lower costs, become the future key of enterprise's decisive battle. As to the development which China LED lighted, China throws advisor's senior researcher and congratulates pointing out in China, at present, the development which China LED lights is like a raging fire, the enterprise number which enters this field is that the straight line increase, cause the market to be extremely confused. First of all, lopsided development appears between the industry chains, the discrepancy is comparatively serious, the appearing and presenting greater obstacle of benefit, only see input, has not seen and produced. Secondly, the blind investment of the low reaches has compressed the profit spaces of the market greatly, the fiercer the competition is, the smaller the profitable space of market is, the price war is extremely unfavorable in development of the new industry, will weaken the competitiveness of high-quality enterprises to a certain extent, will upset the competition order of the whole market at the same time.
