The Center of Excellence will focus to capture opportunities in laser diodes for the ultimate efficiency and performance SSL. In the area of lighting, laser-based lighting enable highly directional long throw lighting with superior performance. High wall plug efficiency violet and blue laser diodes could lead to the next generation of laser-based SSL. The ultimate SSL would include GaN-based violet, blue and green LEDs. Laser diodes are also the basis for high bandwidth visible light communications (VLC, also referred to as Light Fidelity communication – LiFi).
