Nichia has updated the dedicated page for the Scientific and Technical Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS). 2024-05-15. Nichia Automotive Innovation Center Paves the Way towards Next-Generation Lighting Solutions.
Nichia's laser diodes (LD) cover a wide range of colors from UV to blue, green, and red. Nichia strives to provide the world's best quality, a diverse product lineup, and stable supply to meet various needs.
Nichia has been taking the lead to develop and manufacture LEDs, LD (Laser Diodes) and semiconductor materials based on the technology cultivated since its foundation. As an innovator of the light, Nichia will continue to make contributions to the further improvement of life and industry in the years to come.
Nichia created a violet Laser Diode, which was believed to be more difficult to develop than a blue LED. In 1995, Nichia succeeded in creating this with pulsed operation, and then in 1997, achieved 10,000 hours of continuous wavelength operation. The volume production and sales started in 2001.
