Adding a layer of nanoparticles to LED designs could help them produce more light for the same energy, and also increase their lifetime. This is according to a team from Imperial College London and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati who have found a new way to boost the amount of light LEDs produce. They report their innovation in the journal Light Science & Applications.
