The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of rapid thermal cycling on microstructure and optical property (luminous flux and luminous efficiency) of high power light emitting diode (LED) by induction heating. Under an application of induction heating as rapid heating source, the specimens that were being non-operating and operating life tests in the experiment were rapidly heated and cooled based on a control system that employs a fuzzy logic algorithm, respectively. The optical performances, including luminous flux, luminous efficiency and radiant power of two kinds of LED spec...
