 phosphors. Nominated by a team of writers and researchers, CeeLite's LEC panels were chosen for TIME Magazine's recent issue dedicated to the best inventions of the year. Past nominees include iTunes and Bluetooth.

CeeLite's LEC technology consists of printable, flexible, paper-thin film panels that can turn any surface into a light source. The LEC panels can be used for a wide range of indoor and outdoor signage, architectural and entertainment lighting applications including transit advertising, point of purchase signage, window display and studio and stage lighting.

"SYLVANIA is proud to provide the phosphors used in CeeLite's LEC panels," Diane Seymour, business development manager, OSRAM SYLVANIA, said. "Being named one of the best inventions of 2006 by TIME Magazine is a testament not only to CeeLite's hard work and revolutionary thinking, but it also demonstrates the possibilities offered by SYLVANIA phosphors."

CeeLite's LEC panels are constructed by sandwiching SYLVANIA phosphors between two electrodes and screen printable, recycled compositions. The application of AC voltage generates a changing electrical field across the phosphors causing them to emit light.

With the help of SYLVANIA phosphors, CeeLite's LEC panels offer lighting solutions not possible with other technologies. CeeLite's LEC panels provide many features and benefits: as the panels are paper-thin, adding very little weight. The technology also offers 99 percent uniform surface illumination and energy savings by consuming little power and generating negligible heat.

Recent CeeLite applications include a massive interactive illuminated window display featuring Madonna at H&M's New York City New York City: see New York, city.

CeeLite, with phosphors by SYLVANIA, has transformed Thomas Edison's most famous invention into something even he wouldn't have been able to dream of. As one of the "Best Inventions of 2006," TIME Magazine has recognized that CeeLite's LEC technology has the ability to revolutionize the future of lighting. With the wide range of CeeLite's current applications, the future possibilities are endless, and may one day be the standard for home lighting.
