  • The efficiency of LEDs will be determined by the radiate recombination rate
  • Temperature influence the output power of an LED through its effects on the internal quantum efficiency of the device. 
  • The internal quantum efficiency of LEDs decreasing exponentially with increasing temperature. 
  • The efficiency of LED is directly proportional to the current injected.
