Abstract :
Following a brief discussion of the operating characteristics of light emitting diodes (LED´s), radiation effects in these devices are reviewed. Recent results on neutron damage effects in SiC LED´s are also presented. Based on this review, criteria are developed for radiation insensitivity of LED´s.
