LED lighting industry ushered in a great development opportunity but also found existing some serious problems hinder the development of the industry. According to the" Twelfth Five-Year Plan", to 2015 our country LED industry dimensions to achieve 500000000000 Yuan, industry is facing tremendous business opportunities. China private science and technology promotion through research found that, at present, China's LED industry still faces many difficulties, have even formed restrict sustainable development of industry chains.

Price is too high to commercial application obstacle

Countries in the last year has started the" ten city lights" LED energy-saving plan, currently has 42city included in the program. However, in addition to decorative LED lighting has been gradually spread apart, so far most of the LED general lighting applications is still confined to the government demonstration project. Marketing difficult main reason is LED lighting product price is too high. Because the chips in the LED product costs accounted for30% or even higher, but our country lighting level of high-end LED chip mainly rely on imports, the price is more expensive, resulting in the same light brightness LED lighting product prices remain high, to the ordinary consumers do not have a greater attraction.

Product homogenization of fierce competition lack of leading enterprises and leading brand

Chinese LED industry a large number of enterprises, the overall has made great progress, but the enterprise dimensions slants generally small, the lack of leading enterprises. With most of the LED manufacturers will early product R & D and production of main module programme, LED access to lower the threshold, the market competition is intense. Currently there are1950LED packaging enterprises, and enterprises to launch all kinds of LED applied new product quantity is less than 530; LED street lamp enterprises more than 300, the product is copied from each other imitation. Homogenization of competition by price war of four, the lack of benchmarking of the brand, enterprise dimensions to expand, the industry lacks credibility. Implantation bibcock enterprise, accelerate the construction of independent brands have been imminent.

Industrial investment overheat blindly and low-level repeat construction

Expo, Asian Games," Ten City Light" policy to advance, LED market demand soars. Many cities will be the LED industry as a pillar industry, the domestic LED market prospects, domestic and foreign investment merger and integration of upstream and downstream enterprises to accelerate the process, the traditional lighting enterprises, state-owned capital, folk capital have also entered, industrial investment boom. In the upstream of the epitaxial film production of key equipment of MOCVD for example,2010to the plant installation and equipment imports amounted to 300, the next 3 years the program imports more than 1000Taiwan, is10 times more than in 2008. Without the scientific decision-making and rational planning of LED industry layout, large-scale introduce MOCVD key equipment, may lead to low end chip capacity big eruption, make LED industry of China in 20092008, repeat the polysilicon investment heat failure.

Support of government policy and industry to develop the current situation not matching

LED industry is the national focus on nurturing the development of strategic emerging industries, countries and provinces in technology research and demonstration project give aid to capital investment is increased ceaselessly, published a large number of policies to support the industry, and through the application of engineering pilot job, guide and give aid to promote the use of LED lighting products. This series of initiatives to effectively promote China's LED industry technological progress. But for the next 5 years will be LED from R & D and demonstration stage to complete market stage the key period of transition, as the industry give aid to policy, need more systematic and practical industry development present situation, and from consumer tax, subsidy, government procurement and the development level of government funding and preferential loans and other aspects detailed.

Lack of key technologies and core patent

Patent technology is the world's leading LED manufacturers to obtain the competitive advantage, the important means to maintain market share. Domestic LED patent technology is not perfect, the patent is mostly foreign manufacturers master, technical heteronomy, high-end chip80% above come from abroad or from the Taiwan area, enterprises can not be extended to the high-end profit plate; due to the lack of the principle of patent, product by the patent blockade, export restriction. Even in the concentration of80% above of our country enterprise package and application fields are also at a low level of downstream. Along with the LED technology according to Moore's law continues to improve performance, reduce the cost, greatly expanding the application field, market space increases exponentially. Advanced R & D technology and good brand image LED foreign enterprise" take cities and seize territory", occupying the market. Domestic LED enterprises face how to further improve their technology, and construct their own patent defense challenge.

Standard and testing means lags behind in the industrial technology

LED estate wants healthy progress, cannot leave the related technology and product standards, but burgeoning industry technology rapid development, brings detection technology and standards and other common problems, the current products complete lack of industry standards, quality is uneven, some good and some bad, contused greatly the confidence and enthusiasm. On the other hand, the LED industry gets great attention from the government, vigorously promote the product model application, formation of standardization and quality evaluation method lag in technology development and market application situation. How to ease the contradictions, breakthrough bottleneck, not only is the standardization of research work on the new task, also be technology quality supervision within the context of the new task.

To sum up, the LED industry in China the problems need to solve from the industrial development strategy. This is because the LED industry with burgeoning industry characteristic, also relates to the semiconductor and the traditional electric light source in two areas, its development course has inherent laws, if only the pursuit of individual foreign advanced technical indicators, even if the investment is huge, may also be industry aspect of development is not balanced, industry chain, because industrial development malformation, give aid to policy multiplier even poles apart.
