LED

LED, light-emitting diode. See diode.

Semiconductor diode that produces visible or infrared light when subjected to an electric current, as a result of electroluminescence. Visible-light LEDs are used in many electronic devices as indicator lamps (e.g., an on/off indicator) and, when arranged in a matrix, to spell out letters or numbers on alphanumeric displays. Infrared LEDs are used in optoelectronics (e.g., in auto-focus cameras and television remote controls) and as light sources in some long-range fibre-optic communications systems. LEDs are formed by the so-called III-V compound semiconductors related to gallium arsenide. They consume little power and are long-lasting and inexpensive.

Un-Led-Ed is the debut album by Dread Zeppelin, released in 1990. The original cover featured Tortelvis. It was later modified at the request of the Elvis Presley estate - sometimes with a sticker over Tortelvis, other times by adding dreads to him. (See 1990 in music). Led Zeppelin lead singer Robert Plant was so taken with the album that it was often played over the public address system prior to concerts during his 1991 Manic Nirvana solo tour.
