Accelerating the development of next-generation solid-state lighting sources

Abstract
Solid-state lighting (SSL) is a pivotal emerging technology that promises to fundamentally alter and improve lighting systems of the future. Successful development and commercialization of SSL technology will require coordinated efforts that leverage the strengths and capabilities of industry, research and academic organizations, national laboratories, and government. This paper discusses the U.S. Department of Energy's role as a catalyst in accelerating SSL technology advances. Through DOE's SSL R&D program, the collaborative efforts of our nation's best and brightest lighting experts are moving this promising technology from the laboratory to the marketplace.
