The award honors the invention of green light emitting diodes, or LED (Light Emitting Diode) , capable of generating brighter and more energy-efficient white light sources.
"With the advent of LEDs, we can now have more long-term and efficient options than older light sources , " Reuters quoted the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences as saying. .
The use of LEDs can improve the quality of life of more than 1.5 billion people in the world who do not have access to electricity networks. Due to low power requirements, LEDs can be supported by cheap solar power.
The invention of LED dates from 20 years ago and plays a significant role in creating white light in a completely new way, benefiting people.
The prize for scientists receiving the Nobel Prize for Physics is 1.1 million USD. Earlier, the Nobel Prize for Medicine honors three scientists John o'Keefe, May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser, with the study of cells that make up the navigation system in the human brain.
Nobel Prizes in Chemistry, Literature, Peace and Economy will continue to be handed over from tomorrow to October 13.
