Comparison Of Thermal And Optical Behaviors Of Pre-Molded And Ceramic Package Light Emitting Diodes

The project signifies thermal and optical characterizations of pre-molded and ceramic package light emitting diodes (LEDs) that are conducted by using thermal transient and light emission recording techniques. It was observed that the luminous intensity of the LEDs is dependent on the input current....
