Forscher des Paul-Drude-Instituts fuer Festkoerperelektronik entwickeln gemeinsam mit der Industrie und anderen Forschungsinstituten im Rahmen eines EU-Projektes weisse Leuchtdioden (LEDs), die auf Nanosaeulen basieren. Dadurch koennte die Produktion von energiesparenden weissen LEDs deutlich billiger werden.
