LED industry has been facing the imbalance of market supply and demand and price competition for a long time. In recent years, it has shifted to the niche market direction of high technology threshold. LED big plant Nichia has invested a lot of resources in the development of differentiated high-technology products over the years, and has also made efforts to overcome the technical difficulties of Micro LED and Mini LED and move towards mass production.
Whether mass production is the key point is the key.
Japan Asia has been developing Micro LED technology more than 10 years ago. It is very difficult to shrink LED to smaller than sand and ensure that it can shine. "Micro LED is actually a revolutionary technology," Dai Shen, general manager of Taiwan Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., using semiconductor nanotechnology technology as an example, shows that the Micro LED size reduction is like the downward March of the nanowire process, meaning that neither of them can be achieved overnight.
Of course, Micro LED is not able to do well, "to be able to mass production is the key, only sample does not make sense, anyone can do it," Dai stressed that the key is to be able to mass production, not mass production, there is no market.
The second Department of technology, technology and technology, said that Micro LED is still in the development stage. Although it has already been able to make experimental products, it also needs to continue its efforts to achieve the level of industrial products, and will continue to do research and development. It will probably take four years to truly achieve mass production.
Mini LED ready to enter mass production stage
As for the progress of Mini LED, Sakamoto Kasumi said that the technology development has been completed and is now ready to enter the mass production stage. However, it is impossible to tell whether mass production will be made this year. After all, mass production also needs to be overcome in terms of technology, equipment and stability.
At present, Japan Asia has signed specific cooperation with specific customers. In order to enable customers to launch the Mini LED products in the world, it is not easy to disclose any details at this stage. It only indicates that the Mini LED developed by Japan's Asia Development Group is defined as a "real Mini LED" with a size of 100 m, and it will move towards consumption in the future. Electronic products market.

At present, it is unable to disclose more details, but it is mentioned that the cooperative customer has visited the market for evaluation, and finally chose Japan Asia as the partner.
Force high technology products drive revenue growth
In addition to Micro LED and Mini LED, Japan is also actively developing laser diode (LD), EV lithium-ion battery materials, vehicle mounted, special lighting white light LED Optisolis, LCD backlight products NTSV (Nichia NTSV) and other high-technology products.
Japan's Asia Pacific is particularly optimistic about LD's key growth momentum for revenue growth. It has announced that it will build a new factory in the existing four countries' ananben factory factory area before 2020, and will produce LD for projector light sources, endoscopy, automotive headlights and other applications. The investment in the new plant is about 22 billion yen, and is expected to be completed in January 30, 2019. The target will increase LD production to more than two times in 2020.
In addition, Sunplus has jointly invested in the Southern China area of the mainland to set up a new company's "core vision technology", which is mainly designed to provide vertical integration solutions to meet diversified needs of customers and design and develop LED products. The business contents of optical core include parts assembly, optical lens development and design, IC design and other related modules integration. Sun Ya Hua expects to accelerate the pace of design and development by developing optical core, developing the most advanced products in the industry, increasing profits and maintaining market competitive advantages.
Large scale applications of public displays will indeed lead the way, but the real impact of LED supply is mobile phone products.
