Hybrid supercapacitors with high power density and long cycle life are widely used for emergency power source of LED emergency luminaires. In this paper, we designed and fabricated a hybrid capacitor cell and a module for the LED emergency luminaires. Using hybrid supercapacitor cells (1,000 F, 2.8 V), we designed a module in a 10-year warranty considering aging and ESR. Considering the ESR and efficiency has been designed to module with 1,000 F 5.6 V design results in 2 series and 2 parallel combination. Module was used to confirm that the operation 77.5 minutes at room temperature, discharge LED emergency luminaires with 2 W. As a LED emergency luminaires of emergency power supply that we can support more than 10 years of life was confirmed the applicability of hybrid supercapacitor.

Newly suggested hybrid LED package can reduce the number of LED processes and enhance light efficacy in virtue of its integrated optical patterns. Square-type pyramid pattern was chosen for the integrated optical pattern in this study, and it was proved that the pattern enhances illuminance about three times and luminance about two and half times by optical simulation. Square-type pyramid patterns of 0.02mm height and 0.04mm pitch were successively machined on a copper mold which is necessary for imprinting the integrated pattern. Hybrid LED package with integrated optical pattern will be manufactured with ultra-fine machined mold in future study.

In this paper, we propose a design for an efficient hybrid LED street lighting management system using standalone solar photovoltaic. The proposed efficient hybrid LED street lighting management system was composed of hybrid power conditioning system, gateways, LED street lights and a monitoring server. The hybrid power conditioning system was designed to charge produced power by solar photovoltaic panels in day time, and supply power to the LED street lights in night time. If there is insufficient power, the system was designed to operate using firm power, because the system utilizes photovoltaic power. A system control algorithm allied to the lighting management system, and experimented by being configured to the functions that are able to perform real-time monitoring and remote control through the lighting management system even when absent. In the result of the efficiency analysis of the hybrid lighting management system proposed in this paper, we were able to increase the energy efficiency compared to existing lighting control systems by reducing power consumption and electricity costs.

This paper presents a hybrid single optical system for an LED surgical light that combines the advantages of both lens- and reflector-type single optical systems. The proposed hybrid single optical system includes a lens in the center and the LED light originating from the lens is redirected using a reflector to achieve a high beam spread. Iterative optical software simulations are used to provide data for the design of the lens and reflector for a single optical system, and for a complex optical system for the LED light assembly. The resulting data is also used to fabricate a prototype system. Experiments using the prototype of the hybrid single optical system and a mock-up LED surgical light confirm the system's shadow dilution performance and its applicability to surgical operations.

This paper proposes a hybrid LED driving circuit and its control method for extension of the color gamut of LED. The proposed hybrid LED driving circuit provides the constant current by switching regulation in the high current and by linear regulation in the low current through LED. Furthermore, the magnitudes of the high current and low current were controlled by CC(Continuous Current) control method and PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) control method, respectively. We experimentally confirmed that the current through RGB LED is linearly controlled to 2% maximum current ratio by varying PWM in the proposed driving circuit and control method. As a result of the measurement of the output light color in CIE1976 chromaticity coordinates, we confirmed that the color, which not be expressed by the existing method, uniformly expressed. We confirmed that the color, which can not be expressed by the existing method, was uniformly output and verified that the color gamut was expanded by the low current controlled by the proposed driving circuit and control method.

This paper describes the parasitic capacitance modeling according to the coil structure, section bobbin and winding method for hybrid choke coil with reduced parasitic capacitance capable of the EMI attenuation of broad bands from lower frequency to higher frequency applied in the EMI attenuation filter of LED-TV SMPS. Especially, the hybrid choke coil with reduced parasitic capacitance($C_p$) proposed in this paper can reduces the parasitic capacitance($C_p$) by adopting the winding methods of rectangular copper wire, compared to the conventional common mode choke coil with the winding method of automatic type. The first resonant frequency of the proposed hybrid choke coil has a tendency to increase as the parasitic capacitance is smaller and its impedance characteristics, especially in the high frequency bands, improves as the first resonant frequency increases. In the future, the proposed hybrid choke coil with reduced parasitic capacitance shows it can be actually utilized in not only LED-TV SMPS but also various applications such as LED Lighting, Note-PC Adapter, and so forth.

This study presents a novel four-channel light-emitting diode (LED) current balancing topology using a current-fed hybrid quasi-Z-source converter. With the proposed structure, currents flowing through four LED strings are automatically balanced owing to the charge (amp-sec) balance condition on capacitors. Thus, automatic current balancing of the proposed driver is simple and precise. In addition, the proposed LED driver uses only one active switch and three diodes. The operating principle and characteristics of the proposed four-channel LED driver are analyzed in detail. To verify the operation of the proposed LED driver, a prototype is built and tested with different numbers of LEDs.

The paper deals with the development of the multi-layer plant production systems using a sunlight and LED. Nowadays most of plant production systems have been developed by plant factory using only LED. In case of plant factory using LED, however, the light quantity is not sufficient for various kinds of medicinal plants. In this paper, authors have tried to apply the both the luminous sources using a natural sunlight and an appropriate LED. During the daytime, a natural sunlight was applied using the Heliostat, while in the nighttime, LED was used. The proposed mixed plant production system was constructed under the various environmental conditions such as $CO_2$ distribution, temperature and humidity. Through the hybrid plant prodution systems, the growth of Ginseng plants were recorded and demonstrated by CCD camera and monitoring program.

This study discusses numerically-explored thermal performances of hybrid fin heat sinks (HF HSs) for lightweight thermal management of LED modules under natural convection. A hollow hybrid fin heat sink (HHF HS) and a solid hybrid fin heat sink (SHF HS) are proposed as HF HSs. A 3-D CFD analysis has been carefully conducted to obtain reliable numerical results. The 3-D CFD study investigates the effects of both fin spacing and an internal channel diameter on performances of the HHF HS and the SHF HS. The study results show that the mass-based thermal resistance of the HHF HS is 20~32% smaller compared with the pin fin heat sink (PF HS). The results also show that the mass-based thermal resistance of the HHF HS decreases with the increase of the channel diameter. These results are mainly due to coupled effects of the mass reduction and heat pumping through an internal channel. Considerably superior mass-based thermal performances of the HHF HS to the conventional PF HS suggest the feasible application for the lightweight thermal management of the LED modules under natural convection.
