China's LED industry innovation difficulty and development bottleneck show

LED companies should strengthen the training of professional and technical personnel, set up high-level and stable R&D teams, and continuously upgrade China's scientific research and innovation capabilities.

Innovation difficulty and development bottleneck appear

China started late in the LED industry, and there are only a handful of companies engaged in upstream LED epitaxy and chip production. According to LED professional consulting agencies, China's LED chip supply accounts for only 8% of global demand. In the domestic LED market, domestic chips account for only about 52% of demand. Although the domestic LED industry has developed rapidly in recent years, and the company's innovation capability has performed outstandingly, the difficulty of innovation and the bottleneck of development have also gradually emerged.

The bottlenecks and difficulties faced by LED companies in the process of product and technological innovation and industrialization lie in three major issues: patents, talents and costs. Specifically:

First, the domestic LED patent applications are less, and started late. To obtain core patents, it is still necessary to accumulate long-term, high-level research results. With the rapid development of the domestic LED industry, occupying the commanding heights of the international market has become a mid- to long-term goal. As a result, LED epitaxial and chip patent issues are particularly prominent, and have also become the first problems to be solved in the development process of LED companies;

Second, the shortage of professional and technical personnel is still a common problem faced by LED companies. Third, it is difficult to localize LED epitaxial and chip manufacturing equipment and main raw materials. At present, in the above demand, it still relies on imports. As the LED industry moves toward the ultimate goal of universalization, reducing costs has become a problem that must be faced in the production of enterprises.

Therefore, we should strengthen the training of professional and technical personnel, set up a high-level, stable R&D team, and continuously improve our scientific research and innovation capabilities. Through independent innovation to form part of the core patent technology, it will overcome key technologies that the country urgently needs for industrialization, establish a sound technological innovation system and special industrial clusters, and form an emerging semiconductor industry with international competitiveness.

Should introduce preferential policies

At present, China has a certain emphasis on semiconductor lighting industry support policies, support efforts and personnel training, but on the whole, there is still a big gap with other pillar industries. As for the innovation environment, the most pressing issue is still the issue of talent. China's LED industry started late, and its own professional and technical talents are in short supply. Domestic companies need to accelerate the promotion of their innovation capabilities in the development process. They must introduce high-paying professional talents from abroad or in Taiwan. This will undoubtedly increase the development of the developing industry. manufacturing cost.

It is recommended that the state introduce some preferential policies for the introduction of LED labor in favor of enterprise innovation and development, and at the same time increase the cultivation and output of domestic talents.

Sanan as an LED epitaxial, chip upstream product manufacturing company, innovation focus and objectives will closely follow the direction of international industry development and market development needs
