What is OLED in Lighting?

OLED means Organic Light Emitting Diode.  It works in similar way than (semiconductor) LED. Both need positive and negative charge carriers to generate electrical current and finally generate light. It is a surface light source based on organic material layers. LED, on the other hand, is a point light source that is based on semiconductor materials. But…

Different Dimming Types for LED Lighting

You can use several different dimming options to dim LED Lighting. What are the possibilities and what dimming should you look from a LED driver? I’m going to answer these questions in this blog post by going through the different systems. The goal is to give you the basic understanding of the dimming methods available…

Why the Same Color Temperatures Look Different?

We see more and more light sources that supposed to be exactly the same color temperature, but actually appear different to human eye. So why the same color temperatures look different? When people talk about color temperature, they are usually talking about correlated color temperature instead (CCT). There is a difference between these two. Color…

What is LED?

LED – The replacement for every light source we possess? Thanks to the tightened regulations and more energy efficient approach, LED has started to replace all the traditional lighting. But what do those three letters hold inside? What actually IS LED? Literally, it is a light-emitting diode. Technically it is PN-junction. Functionally it is a…
