environment for employees and visitors to experience at Douglass House.
Cabinet Member for Finance, Councillor Mark Lowry, says, “Plessey Semiconductors is a local business pioneering a new innovative product which has huge growth potential. We are keen to support their research into their latest lighting product, which is designed to reduce carbon emissions and save money, by providing a test bed for them. If successful, this could bring with it huge investment and job opportunities into the city.”
Neil Harper, Plessey’s LED business unit director, adds “We are excited to be able to work with Plymouth City Council and to play a key role in this first pilot project. Our solid-state LED lighting solution helps Plymouth City Council create a better working environment as well as contributing aggressively towards achieving their ambitious targets for cost and performance efficiencies. We are looking forward to continuing the development programme with our partners at Plymouth City Council.”

Soraa used the GaN characteristics like the optical transparency and the high electrical and thermal conductivity to create a unique vertical structure for these LEDs. The layers deposited by epitaxy are very thin.

A high current density per square cm is obtained, estimated at 120A / sq cm. The Soraa LEDs have a triangular shape to limit the internal reflection of the light and thus increase the light extraction.
An original silicon package with a multilayer mirror is used to increase the light extraction of the LED lamp.
More details are described in the report, “LED : SORAA : Tri-LED & Lightchip,” available from System Plus Consulting.

Cambridge Nanotherm & Optocap ship first Chip-on- Heatsinks to LED firm The joint technology was chosen for its outstanding
thermal performance, reduced costs and simplified supplier management and assembly
Cambridge Nanotherm is partnering with Optocap, an advanced microelectronic and optoelectronic packaging design and assembly company.
Together, the companies have shipped what they say is the first ever Chip-on-Heatsink modules to a customer in the LED industry.
“As a design and assembly service provider we need to ensure we specify materials that will enhance our customers’ products,” says David Ruxton, CEO of Optocap. “We specified Cambridge Nanotherm’s technology due to the outstanding thermal performance
