A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) is a semiconductor-based light source that emits light when an electric current passes through it. During this process, electrons recombine with holes within the material, releasing energy as photons. The color of the emitted light depends on the semiconductor’s bandgap energy. To produce white light, manufacturers either combine multiple LEDs of different colors or coat the LED with a phosphor layer that converts the emitted light into a broad-spectrum white glow. This efficient and versatile technology is widely used in indicators, displays, and general lighting applications due to its brightness, durability, and low energy consumption.
