DIODE(D)
introduction
• LED lights were invented in 1962 by Nick Holon yak, who
worked for Bell Laboratories at the time
• A light emitting diode (LED) is essentially a PN junction opto-
semiconductor that emits a monochromatic (single color)
light when operated in a forward biased direction.

MORE ABOUT LED…..
• The most important part of a light emitting diode (LED) is the semi-
conductor chip located in the center of the bulb as shown at the right.
The chip has two regions separated by a junction.
