The invention of blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) triggered a fundamental transformation of lighting technology. Now which has created history on international platform by winning Noble prize in Physics.
An American and two Japanese scientists won the 2014 Nobel Prize had received for inventing a new energy-efficient and environment-friendly light source. The arrival of such LED lamps is changing the way homes and workplaces by offering a longer-lasting and more efficient alternative to the incandescent bulbs.
Isamu Akasaki and Hiroshi Amano of Japan and Japanese-born U.S. citizen Shuji Nakamura won the prize for developing the blue light-emitting diode (LED) .Last year's physics award went to Britain's Peter Higgs and Belgian colleague Francois Englert for helping to explain how matter formed after the Big Bang.
