LED lighting systems face persistent challenges in maintaining luminous efficacy and color stability over extended operational periods. Field data shows that LED junction temperatures regularly exceed 85°C in high-power applications, while environmental factors like humidity and sulfur exposure can degrade both optical and electrical components, leading to premature failure or significant performance degradation within 50,000 hours of operation.

The fundamental challenge lies in balancing thermal management, environmental protection, and serviceability while maintaining the optical and electrical performance needed for commercial applications.

This page brings together solutions from recent research—including advanced thermal interface materials, integrated heat dissipation structures, protective encapsulation techniques, and modular replacement systems. These and other approaches focus on extending LED system lifetime while preserving initial performance characteristics under real-world operating conditions.

1. LED Light Source with EMC Bracket and Movable Closing Device for Enhanced Heat Dissipation

GUANGDONG JINGRUI SEMICONDUCTOR CO LTD, 2024

An efficient heat dissipation LED light source using an EMC bracket that improves heat dissipation for long-life LED lighting. The light source has an EMC bracket encapsulated with an LED lamp bead. The bracket has a circuit inside. A movable closing device connects to one side of the bracket. A protective shell attaches to the lower end of the closing device. The closing device has parts like a fixed frame, groove, docking frame, mounting bar, cover plate, and screws.

Hangzhou Yongdian Lighting Co., Ltd., HANGZHOU YD ILLUMINATION CO LTD, 2023

High-power LED outdoor waterproof module lamp with improved heat dissipation and waterproofing for applications like outdoor lighting and underwater lighting. The lamp has a unique design to address the issues of heat dissipation and waterproofing in high-power LED lamps. It uses a substrate with LED chips on one side and a heat-conducting material on the back to directly transfer heat from the LED chips to a heat sink. The LED chips, substrate, and heat sink are sealed in a light-transmitting package to prevent air gaps. This allows better heat conduction compared to air gaps. A groove with a high thermal adhesive fills the middle of the heat sink to provide secondary sealing and prevent water entry. The lens is separate from the lamp body to allow lens adjustment.
