A LED is a small semi-conductor which ignites a small crystal inside a non-toxic resin housing. Typical LEDs can last for over 20,000hrs. of continous use. Making them very efficient. <a href="http://www.refraction.net/Question/LED/LED_history.php">The History of the LED</a> can explain the year the crystal was mass produced.
