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.

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.
