Liu, Minne (author), Li, Wenyu (author), Chen, Wei (author), Ibrahim, Mesfin S. (author), Xiong, Jingkang (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Fan, Jiajie (author)During the operation of an LED array, its thermal and optical performances are always not equal to the superposition of the individual LED's characteristics because of a significant thermal coupling effect between the arrays. Based on this, this paper proposes an electrical–photo-thermal model, with considering both junction temperature and...journal article 2024
