Haitz's Law
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Haitz's Law states that every decade, the price of LEDs have fallen by 10x while the performance (measured in flux per unit) has increased by 20x, for a given wavelength (color) of light. It is considered the LED counterpart to Moore's Law, which states that the number of transistors in a given integrated circuit doubles every 18 to 24 months.
Haitz's Law is named after Dr. Roland Haitz, a now-retired scientist at Agilent Technologies.
