High Efficiency Nanofiber Reflectors for Lower Lighting Operational Costs

摘要

Light fixtures or luminaires containing advanced lamp technologies such as LEDs suffer from an intrinsic flaw. The materials used to make the luminaire absorb a significant amount of light, reducing lighting system efficiency. RTFs NLITeTM technology overcomes this limitation by leveraging advanced nanofiber technology to provide a surface with a high diffuse reflectance. The NLITe technology has been tested in more than a dozen luminaires and efficiency improvements as high as 40% has been observed. These efficiency improvements translate into significant reduction in capital and operational cost of lighting systems incorporating NLITe.
