The Japanese semiconductor pioneer Isamu Akasaki has died at the age of 92. His work in the late 1980s and early 1990s led to the development of blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which soon found a wide range of applications from low-energy light bulbs and mobile-phone displays to televisions. For the work Akasaki shared the 2014 Nobel Prize ...
