Nobel Prize of three
Japanese born scientists
• Three Japanese-born
scientists who helped
brighten the world will share
this year's Nobel Prize in
Physics.
• Isamu Akasaki, Hiroshi
Amano and Shuji Nakamura
carried out groundbreaking
research that led to the
creation of blue light-emitting

• Members of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences made
the announcement in Stockholm. In 1989, Akasaki and
Amano used gallium nitride crystals to develop a
semiconductor that emitted blue light. Nakamura built on
that achievement to create brighter blue LEDs that were
capable of being used in electronic products.
• The members of the academy said their invention helped to
contribute to saving the Earth's resources, and they say it
promises a better quality of life for billions of people around
the world.

Three Japanese-born scientists will share this year's Nobel Prize.
They major in Physics.
They helped brighten the world.
Akasaki, Amano and Nakamura carried out groundbreaking research.
They led to the creation of blue light-emitting diodes, or LEDs.
What they developed is now used in electronic products.
Members of the Nobel Committee reported the result in Stockholm.
In 1989, Akasaki and Amano used some materials to develop a
semiconductor.
This emitted blue light.
Nakamura built on that achievement.
He created brighter blue LEDs.
Blue LEDs were capable of being used in electronic products.
The members of the committee said their invention helped to contribute
to saving the Earth's resources.
They hope it will (promises) make a better quality of life.
It will be used by billions of people around the world.
