The light-emitting diode is one of the semiconductor diodes, which can turn electrical energy into luminous energy and emit visible light in various colors, such as yellow, green, blue, etc, as well as invisible light, such as infrared and ultraviolet light.
It is a semiconductor diode that emits light when an electric current passes through it, like a simple circuit.
Researchers at NIST have evaluated the stability of semiconductor diodes under irradiation from an excimer laser operating at 157 nm.
