The solid condition of U.S.A. is lighted (SSL-solidstatelighting) The plan is a overall one, include the multi-field plan, it includes several major parts such as researching and developing, product development and marketing of fundamental research, key technical application, stand opposite each other independently as well as incident with one another between every part.

In U.S.A., the key technical research and development is usually undertaken by the research institute, university or national laboratory. Through key technical research and development, after solving the technological difficult problem of some foundations and generality, every enterprise can develop the corresponding products according to one's own market orientation. Certainly, the strong big enterprise can do some key technical research and development too, but this is the minority after all.

The general installing mode of the key technical research and development subject is to solicit the suggestion of the society, industrial circle and academic mechanism extensively first, which please put forward key technical question to have, put in order, organize several discussions, and technological Committee of Experts puts in order out the corresponding research and development subject according to these key technological difficult problems, solicit the subject to declare to the society. After American Ministry of Energy receives project application, organize experts to evaluate, confirm declaration and succeed in the unit through replying and investigating live. The subsidy of project, generally between hundreds of thousands dollars and several million dollars, the service life of subsidy is from 2 to 3. American Ministry of Energy will subsidize some products development item too.

Put out testing worth drawing lessons from with the standard fast

At present, the propelled bright spot of lighting project of U.S.A.'s solid condition, I think it is CALiPER (CommerciallyavailableLEDproductevaluation andreporting tevaluation andreporting) Operation and new canonial fast introduction of the test item. CALiPER test result reveals the average lamplight effects of LED lamps and lanterns grow with each passing hour, the highest lamplight effect has already exceeded 70 lumen per watt.

Like China, there are various LED lighting products on the American market, and technological performance indexes labelled are multifarious, the exaggerative phenomenon obviously exists. In order to standardize the market, American Ministry of Energy organized a project which was called CALiPER in 2006. This project operation mode is to inspect the products that the solid condition lighted by random samples from the market at random fixedly and non-periodically, and mark contrasting with it, the result is made known publicly. CALiPER has already carried on 7 test up till now. The first sampling inspection result is astonishing, the nominal index of every producer and smoking and measuring and trying the phase difference of fruiting enormously, the identified lamplight effect index of most products is far greater than testing the data got far. The test data have caused very great response in the industry after announcing, each producer begins too to realize the exaggerative method is not advisable.

What merits special attention is, involving key technology research and development, product development and marketing the three partial research units and companies forms the powerful strategic partnership. Everybody cooperates and promotes the lighting products of solid condition fast and entering market and application healthily, and product development and marketing are based on canonial setting-up and implementation, issue standard rigorous quality monitoring in time, it is very much difficult for new product not to exploit market healthily, because often illegal producer produces a large number of faulty goods by counterfeit means in this period, and push the quality product out of the market at low price, it is comes out that the faulty goods ruin the prestige of market of the new product and break the whole industry down finally. U.S.A. has issued the standard that four relevant LED light in the past several years.

The market is unstandard to bring the hidden danger for trade development

During these years, the ones that promoted the respect to do a large amount of in technology which China lighted in the semiconductor had worked and obtained very big achievement, especially exchange the respect achievement prominently in industry's alliance, industry, and caused the great attention to that LED lighted of national governments at all levels. But standardize the respect to is seldom doned, catches in marketing and market unureally, make the inferior products flood the market, bring a lot of hidden dangers for the sound development of LED lighting market. In standardizing on the market, the method of American Ministry of Energy CALiPER can be drawn lessons from.

In addition, LED is originally energy-conserving products, but because its relevant standard is unable to issue slowly, it is unable to put to make the country support the market which lights the energy-conserving products in place, have influenced popularization and application of LED lighting products greatly. These questions need every relevant department and relevant employer's organization of the government, and solve together in the alliance. Only issue as to the normal market and relevant standard in time, the semi-conductive lighting industry will develop in a healthy and orderly manner.
