In order to boost the development of LED lighting industry and reduce energy consumption, six Ministries like National Development and Reform Commission, Science and Technology Ministry in China jointly released the Opinions on the Development of Semiconductor Lighting Energy Saving Industry in 2009. Science and Technology Ministry launched the “Ten cities and Ten Thousand Lights” semiconductor lighting application and pilot project the same year. By the end of 2012, the approved 37 “Ten Cities and Ten Thousand Lighting” experimental cities have carried out more than 2700 demostration projects and applying over 7 million LED lights, saving 2 billion kwh power, making a remarkable energy saving effect.
In 2013, six ministries and commissions like national development and reform commission, science and technology ministry, ministry of industry and information technology jointly issued the Energy Saving Plan of Semiconductor Lighting. The position and function of semiconductor lighting in energy conservation and emission reduction is gradually emerging.
Over the past ten years, under the promotion of national semiconductor lighting engineering and a series of good policy, LED lighting of our country in the field of technology, is growing tremendously, not only gained breakthrough in the key technology of power mode white light LED chip industrialization but also made smooth progress in important device core technology.
For example, to successfully exploit 48 piece productive MOCVD model machine producing good indicators of power mode LED chip; To research and develop independently the HVPE device suitable for the growth of nitride and gain hi-quality two inches self-supporting GaN substrate by the technologies of laser lift-off and self-detaching. The great core device development boasting of proprietary intellectual property rights broke the situation monopolized by foreign devices, immensely boosting the establishment and development of semiconductor lighting proprietary intellectual property rights system in our country. In addition, the result of large-scale system integration technology research and important application is very notable. Our nation has become the largest manufacturing and exporting country of LED full color displayer, solar power LED, landscape lighting and other application products in the world.
