SAVE THE DATE November 17-19, 2015 Atlanta, GA LED Assembly, Reliability & Testing Symposium Light emitting diodes (LEDs) are increasingly the technology of choice in lighting and display applications. The main challenge to an even wider deployment platform for LEDs is the disconnect between the potential performance observed in laboratories and the real performance observed in the field. The LED Assembly, Reliability & Testing (A.R.T.) Symposium will provide attendees with information to bridge the gap between the semiconductor physics and the architectural design level issues in LED supply chain. CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS - Abstracts due July 10 th The topics of interest are but not limited to: • Semiconductor level: new materials and techniques used to make LEDs • Luminaire level: assembly and inspection of LEDs mounted onto substrates • User level: Policies and usage improvements/tradeoffs • How LEDs degrade and fail - Failure modes and mechanisms • Packaging materials – encapsulation, lenses • LED Qualification • Reliability assessment • Assembly and packaging process • Architecture: lighting designers • Thermal management issues during integration • Automotive applications • LED testing and reliability standard For more information on the conference, exhibition or sponsorship opportunities, please contact Amanda Dodson: 952-920-7682 or amanda@smta.org www.smta.org/LED
