LEDs, or light-emitting diodes, have changed the world – and continue to do so.
This energy-efficient electronics technology came from decades of design and
discovery in engineering. Dr. Russell Dupuis is one of the engineers behind
LEDs, and he recently was one of five winners of the Queen Elizabeth Prize for
Engineering for his work in this technology. Dr. Dupuis explains his
contribution to creating thin-film electronics necessary for LEDs, starting from
his university days in Illinois, and he also discusses its implications for the
future. He currently is a professor of electrical engineering at Georgia Tech.
