What Does EL Stand For?

EL stands for Electroluminescent

EL, or Electroluminescent, refers to a phenomenon where a material emits light in response to an electric current or strong electric field. This technology is commonly used in displays, lighting applications, and decorative elements, providing a thin, flexible, and energy-efficient source of illumination. Electroluminescent devices operate by applying a voltage across a luminescent material, leading to the excitation of electrons and subsequent light emission, making them suitable for various commercial and industrial uses.
