WORLDWIDE LINKS PAGE This website is not being actively maintained -- see note on homepage. Solid-state lighting science, news, information, and educational resources are now well covered by resources on the Internet. Here, we provide a list of links in these broad categories. · Most focused SSL websites – those targeted specifically at solid-state lighting · Online magazines and information resources include websites carrying related news, reports, scientific literature and other information · Professional societies, such as IEEE, that provide journals covering related scientific work and conferences that may include solid-state lighting · National and international laboratories · National and international agencies Note: For the most part, we don't provide links to specific universities and companies working in SSL, as these are changing very rapidly. However, the Materials Research Society maintains a useful list of university organizations, and a number of websites, e.g., Solid State Lighting Net and LEDmarketplace.com, provide coverage of companies. For information on conferences, see the Conferences page on this website.
