what if i could get you a lot more light and waste way less wattage in the process and up and coming russian company is just open a huge new production facility to help make that energy efficient dream a reality. doesn't need my sleazy sales pitch the high tech brainchild of a trio of russian scientists was born abroad and is now returned to russia to cover it in on a shiny new factory at the outskirts of st petersburg aside from being a happy homecoming they leave the assembly line launches a big step in russia's attempts to modernize its economy to go green at the same time. the capacity in effect. is the highest business today in russia countries and in eastern europe we can produce today through community. it's.

ellie he is the latest in a long line russians alexander big and. made some of the first strides in constructing the incandescent lamps in the seventy's using carbon filaments renowned american inventor thomas edison introduced improved filaments that extended relatively short life of electric bulbs first to forty then to over one thousand hours early twentieth century the tungsten filament light bulbs still in use today were already emerging in lamps appeared in the thirty's and lamps at the end of the one nine hundred fifty s. and high pressure sodium street lighting in the sixty's compact fluorescents or c.f.l. some were pioneers in the seventies and are still a popular option as we move towards energy efficiency gallium nitride light emitting diodes may be seen in the ninety's with improvements in technology since then showing incredible flexibility and efficiency quite possibly making l.e.d. the lighting of the future. it was that break you tried that brought out the big

shots the octagon factory opening the governor of say fears very clearly understood the positive impact of having the company on her church and she was joined by talk local dignitaries and investors from moscow and beyond it's a project that state high tech corporation is happy to throw its weight behind. this is one hundred percent. from the ground up on the fundamental level we can thank for his scientific contribution he won the nobel prize for his research in the field of hatred which is the light emitting diode sort of being produced here. in fact there's one st petersburg academy at the root of all of this the physical technical institute it's been a world class center for fundamental physics in cutting edge technology since the days of its founder of. not only did he and the faculty of delineate it would soon . there is name train the ranks of the soviet union's top nuclear scientists they also begin work on semiconductors underpins virtually all modern electronics and it

was one of the institute's bright stars in the field of semiconductor physics and a forefather of to detail e.d.s. . to launch the meeting diets were developed. in twenty years russian scientists. experimented with silicon called. the end of the night and sixty's we saw the appearance of mold d.s. based on a three d. fine semiconductor hitter restrictions that was in late one nine hundred sixty s. and early one nine hundred seventy s. this acknowledging implemented these facilities is the next generation know how developed by my students and what we see here demonstrates how fast this area is changing both in scientific and technological terms and also in terms of the top rate equipments are operating here. to go on top managers maxime and the beautifullest is slow growth and i would say coach for all of you out of students

in the same league ninety's graduate class and while the op electronics department in your view institute gave them the best of foundations they were completing their studies at a time of difficult transition for the russian scientific community. at the beginning of the nineteen nineties our economy faced a dramatic up evil due to disastrous or implemented by the government i mean there were carried out in a callous way and as a result russian science found itself in a difficult situation we could not have survived can also be maintained on scientific potential without international collaboration. to guns founders were part of a global generation of innovative entrepreneurs seeking elusive startup conditions in an era of uncertainty in fact much of the developed world was suffering in economic identity crisis in the late twentieth century. not just in the collapsing socialist bloc the west german city of jordan where the russian innovators

eventually founder into was no exception. the world is full of rusting old industrial space fallen by the wayside and the constant shifts of the global economy the challenge on everyone's minds is to rethink and rebuild these spaces to compete in the high tech twenty first century. these challenges were particularly acute in jordan a city at the heart of the once mighty male logical complex and europe's largest economy these pictures are from the final days of felix west a massive plant operated by the steel jockey crew that along with other heavy industry installations was the lifeblood of the city's well established working class long before the mill was shuttered for good in one thousand nine hundred eight the economic outlook was dark and it. suffered from the crisis a lot of working places have. they had to take a decision here what to do for the future what to do next what comes off the street

cooking and money and decided to focus on high technology. that was the decision and the result of this decision you can see it here so. which is one of the. technologies sent by the way. companies. would soon sign is an impressive new facility a far cry from the dreary jordan hundred years passed. in april two thousand and five. the factory is set up as a competent center for micro and nanotechnology startups with offices laboratory and clean room infrastructure for small companies trying to take technology from ideas to products if you silly combines funding from the city state and european union now hosting around twenty companies with over one hundred employees. including many from russia so what you see here a little white board is basically the essence of eight years of experience all rick

perry did with russian friends russian i decide. you're in technology and that means to have access to global markets opus neither is say yet between indulgence this russian i think teams find the cook for infrastructure in order to do the conversion of the technology into products where is the money to make a reality come from well basically it needs investors right but you know to give them this infrastructure enables the high tech startup team to make a predictable conversion you have a clear timeframe of two the few years in order to convert technology to products and prepare the company in order to approach global markets that's exactly the kind of preparation our legacy cost and his classmates turned business partners in up to god were looking for when they came to dortmund into baiter to help them take top quality off to electronic technology to the market. up to ghana region that was founded by. two my friends and classmates from university and myself

and played on barrack meyer he joined us and he helped to move the gun here to do work one place to sell it is. the company's main creation was here in dortmund and through this time to develop the main principles and basically came to the final product we created that elegant and today we are between ten top companies on the level of performance so what exactly was it that opera guy needed to get their business off the ground ensured the equipment light emitting diodes don't grow on trees growing every taxi all reactors are able to read top quality equipment in affordable rates and the m.s.t. factory in jordan after gun team had said about generating a top quality sample it made them an attractive investment to set up a full scale production here's how it's done. l.e.d. production starts with a thin model crystalline sapphire wafer in a process known as epitaphs you'll grow placed inside

a special chamber the wafer is bombarded with various gases to form a multi-layered structure under specific pressure and temperature conditions the gases cause chemical reactions leaving layers of gallium nitride indium nitride and aluminum nitride on the way for surface each wafer will produce up to thousands of l.e.d.s. so a laser edging process cards out the individual chips contacts are then affixed to each one of the tiny l.e.d. chips are now ready to be placed inside the encasement or connected with gold wire the contacts and covered with a foster layer to convert blue to white light negative than positive charge currents meet in the active layer of the diode releasing photons in the form of visible light. technology energy efficiency and. recovering the innovation technologies and look to russia and we've talked to several groups of friends several financial groups and the next in group michael

crocker they will appear much faster than others they realize the potential of the company and they simply bought it now mean expertise and mean core vote. and ease inside these protection lives we found a way that we can grow material with the least dislocations and defects compared to even world leaders i mean that we can build chips with a more cost efficient technology delivering the same level of performance we are in a transition phase. i wouldn't affect who have here in germany to hire one of them to try and establish an today in russia the gun is now busy calibrating their for adoption lines in st petersburg to perfectly recreate the recipe day nailed down in georgia it's a tedious process even on the prototype scale and now the expectations are far higher comes out of these machines is going not to showcase for potential investors

but to meet the lighting needs of clients so if all goes to plan what advantages can there l.e.d.s. offer for an equivalent amount of light octagon projects it's. last see if l's nearly ten fold and incandescents by fifty times meanwhile the l.e.d.s. will cut in half the energy usage of most c.f. els and usefully ten times less like tricity then old school bulbs mercury pollution is a potentially serious problem with energy saving c.f.l. l.e.d.s. ovoid that toxic threat. completely. environmentally safe in russia from let's hear from general frost we have a ban four hundred watt incandescent bulbs like other people do as well fornia but in russia there is no such high penetration of those so we see that in terms of the market size. direct replacement of incandescent bulbs too early it's bigger complaint to europe so that's why in this sense we expect russian market to grow

even faster and we think we see the growth of the market for the state like in russia from seventy to hundred percent a year and we expect this tendency to continue. to gun doesn't have to look too far for customers is the city of st petersburg is undergoing an l.e.d. overhaul. just move over and our company is in charge of maintaining some one hundred ninety thousand lighting elements around the city that's a huge market for the new l.a. doing its currently power consumption total several megawatts the opening of a major production plant that will produce the ladies and hopefully lights too will be a boost for some pages good luck you know because you're initially we intend to use early days to eliminate the city's gardens and pocks there's also an ambitious new support construction plan in the pipeline with new streets to be designed and built in two thousand and twelve twenty thirteen. so after we've done the parks we'll extend the replacement program to residential districts and then move on to revamp

the lighting for major transport arteries in the city as well as the embankments and other key sites beyond their hometown optic dawn is breaking out to the far away russian republic of straddling the arctic circle when i see northern siberia energy efficiency is more than a slogan they're producing electricity in much of the region it is expensive and heavily subsidized they also need new technology built to withstand their long brutal winter. what have you guys done to make l.e.d.s. still work in temperature conditions like we had a lot of parts of russia it was one of the challenge just makes me mad because when we came to this market that integrated we just understood russia is a very cold country and nowhere. there is a standard that you need minus sixty degree why one for any throwing if you usually do i think so you know. to develop a local special if they want it's cost effective for deploying. and this

is a prototype here what's different about it i can't tell with the naked eye but tell me a little bit about the technology i would say that right now you can buy minus sixty degree in a minute is about they extremely expensive so it's not like a commodity product on the market what we have today and those high end products more commodity new components new design. design is definitely a big part of the heavily competitive game since other companies outside of russia have already been on the market for years octagon has to show the ability to meet customer specific demands like the temperature standards and you could say it's all about better lighting solutions ever lower costs definitely it's like more economical light you pay less after you put your lamp and you get your period today it's still quite high from two to five six years. but in four years it will be

like. one. like it means that. for now that kind of mass consumer base is a bit beyond our grasp even if you think this land or street in industrial lighting would be great for your garage you might balk when you saw the three hundred dollars price tag octagon works on driving down the cost of chip production somebody needs to tackle the issue of bold design before i'm sold on switching over to. the fortunately the creative mind set hard limit of studios are already on the case moscow's hip is design squad is constantly coming up with new ways to merge high tech function with a fashionable for their blueprints a behind the futuristic prototype property gone screw in l e d. y. was the mean challenge that you guys had to overcome in making these lines i'll go to sleep energy technologies question first no but it's still got some issues to

solve the biggest one ease the problem of couldn't don't use lot of heat so we have to design a very good. radiant is that what this thing is free of here it's like. the theme we just came out for the market maybe three years ago asia's the standard solution but we like to change it and make it more effective and we got inspired by nature because if you look at some of the stuff like mushrooms for example but it's there they just late because of the way of enough and go in and we create the saying the same similar stuff here and help us to extend their capacity and space around and. to make that cooling process more effective from a purely design perspective from an artistic perspective. do you like working with bulbs that need a radiator this clunky like when i look at this i see mostly radiator very little

ball and you don't get light media as much coming down this direction are you looking at ways to completely redo l.e.d. lighting so that you don't have to have such a bulky radiator industry itself is very rapidly changing day by day i think maybe even after one year we will have another design be folks a little different look so what then is the future of this kind of design a look like you mentioned their deeds self getting smaller and smaller and for example they came a bit miffed at technology which is called slide engine and physically it's a very very tiny ensley been adamant and they implemented that but you know the common at the you could wait any shape whatever you want really looking forward to some of the designs may seem a bit frivolous a first glimpse but we're talking about a far more flexible lighting future where we can. the traditional shapes in the name of variety add a bit of color to just about anything and replace old school single function

buttons with tiny l.e.d. screens multiplying your devices possibilities another reader for l.e.d.s. with nation is in an automobile lighting and to be a hybrid by russian billionaire this month is literally hoping to breed invent the wheel set for full scale production sometime in two thousand and twelve the economy cars are trimmed with all the latest gadgets for the urban commuter could have said nixon who backs both octagon in the new car company so it's no wonder he understood the advantages of that product from st petersburg florida which is the first of all the use of lights in easing telling its helps us to cut pack and sunshiny compassion to additional apps and secondly no less important than a standard life span basically running as long as you can. also as the use of l.e.d.s. allowed us to simplify because optics lowering costs by saving in high precision features. to move the zero has company here as the world's leading luxury sports

car makers head seen the light about l.e.d. lance in recent years as well as the bang for the buck gets better you can expect to encounter more l.e.d.s. on the road. as you can see l.e.d. technology is finding applications everywhere these days even letting you light up your own living room but it's just the tip of the op electronics iceberg back in the dorm an incubator there are more innovations on the way from the same team of st petersburg scientists upstairs from octagons launching pad to m.s.t. factory i don't offices of the russian companies you know while their classmates and former colleagues find their mission the well known l.e.d. industry in a new ms the idea even deeper into their scientific work on semiconductor physics they've assembled an international team to become one of the world's leaders in laser diode technology endured when they've set up a complete production cycle beginning here with molecular beam every taxi in. finishing with a range of packaged products their output includes wafers laser chips and fiber coupled laser modules for use in industrial medical and communications technology.

and in two thousand and three it seem of a chung research is from the physical technical university where we worked in the laboratory of the nobel laureates to wrestle fear of go to a unique opportunity to set up a private company here in germany we managed to secure significant funds from investors and set up this semiconductor factory now we are a successful company which among other applications produces millions of chips for the medical sector chips that help save human lives but also our enterprises some ongoing research to create a unique chip to be used in the industry of optical computer interconnections. certainly russia is a different place now with the establishment of the wrist on a corporation. just submitted a project to roost with a proposal to set up production facilities back home. that's actually that will make chips using our technology which will be something unique for russia.

to take knowledge evolution is referring to is called quantum dot lasers and arena where his company is among the global elite quantum dots are confined semiconductor you know crystals with unique electronic an optical properties first discovered in the one nine hundred eighty s. by russian physicist alex c.e.q. most quantum dots are great advantages in laser applications other semiconductor heteros structures like quantum wells are harder to control for lasers quantum dot lasers require less current for more amplitude and ileum has tested them extremely low relative noise these properties have long been theorized now their benefits are on the verge of realisation. on the basis of a company's latest invention will be able to make a chip that will transmit many channels through its. single five. more than one hundred gigabits per second. it will help replace the goalkeeper bunches of cables

that you see everywhere today with just a few fibers also there we can coast energy consumption by several dozen times and the maintenance costs by many hundred times so if you know. think of it this way all the data coming out of your computer gets on a highway today the options are basically either building a new road here another cable or waiting in traffic with the other data. home laser proposes adding lanes to the same highway sending information on the same fiber using several different non-interfering wave lakes and to that the fact that each plane is flying at autobahn speed and you see what kind of breakthrough we're talking about multiply that by the scale of data info heavy firms like google facebook or amazon and you're redefining the world of cloud computing. there are some one hundred data centers being set up every year around the world these are enormous factories for data processing consuming a huge amount of energy. in two thousand and six the data processing industry to

help two percent of electrical energy production in the united states that's a huge number so she expects to revolutionize the optical interconnects industry in the near future with research and development and production sides in germany the united states and russia. so obviously the right conditions for a top russian oculus tronics technologies to develop have been set up in door to competitive firms with cutting edge projects are already out on the market and possibly more on the way they build successful innovative business abroad and now want to bring them home what's the magic formula m.s.t. factory is built on a model that's worked in high tech development and production costs all over the world from the famous silicon valley to taiwan in southeast asia so when. well the time comes to build up this kind of center in russia the resoundingly answer from moscow right now that's c idea at the heart of the skolkovo project an

international city of science and technology set to fan out over the next decade in all directions from this spot just outside of moscow so the next time technology update brings you a high tech success story it might just be born and raised right here until then enjoy the right. that. he's going to cover this book to take scientific groups as i did use to give them kind of incomplete or conditions like we got it and then mr factory which we discussed with you when we were there and set up a small manufacturing in order to develop you all for something or you presently and get custom corrections and this part has to be done in russia immediately otherwise we would never you know cross the bridge between science and manufacturing because between science and avoiding one for truth there is a huge gap there is a prototype development and scientists i myself on scientist they very often say

don't understand how huge pieces get. wealthy british style. sometimes.

markets finance scandal why not what's really happening to the global economy with mike's cars are there are no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to cause a report on our culture is that so much i was about to fail and i was in the final four give a real chance to pull just a lorikeet getting some are selling christian rock jesus jeans and even jesus poles is this the right way to promote christian.
