Biography
A trailblazer in the design and fabrication of ultra-high brightness LEDs, Dr. Frederick A. Kish, Jr. developed revolutionary designs and processes for LEDs utilizing direct wafer bonding to cost effectively increase their luminous efficiency. This advance spearheaded the introduction of solid-state lighting in many applications. At Hewlett-Packard Company in Palo Alto, California, Dr. Kish successfully led the commercial introduction of high-efficiency wafer-bonded transparent-substrate AlGaInP LEDs. Now produced by LumiLeds Lighting, an Agilent/H-P/Philips Lighting joint venture, they have become the dominant technology in red, orange and yellow automotive, traffic and power signaling.
