Despite the potential hazards of ultraviolet (UV) light that are evident in everyday life, such as sunburn, the UV spectrum offers many benefits in a multitude of areas. Not unlike how standard, ...

Marktech Optoelectronics, a US maker of UV LED and ultraviolet LED emitter technologies, has announced an expanded portfolio ...

This engineer doesn’t use nail polish, but his wife does. And he deals with plenty of PCBs. What do these things have in ...

Lighting LEDs are a route to energy efficiency that also allow creative effects that were not possible with incandescent bulbs and fluorescent tubes. Lighting LEDs are a route to energy efficiency ...

The growing demand to rapidly purify vast numbers of proteins is driving development of high-throughput, automated protein purification methods. In these automated methods, multiple channels for ...

Germicidal lamps are designed to destroy viruses and bacteria using ultraviolet light. But not just any UV light will work, and I came across an example of a lamp that was advertised as germicidal but ...

In just two years, DARPA's Semiconductor Ultraviolet Optical Sources (SUVOS) program has made 280 nm LEDs a reality, demonstrated prototype UV biosensor and communication systems, and yielded lasers ...

Semiconductor lighting technology is developing rapidly. While seeking high luminous efficiency, low cost, and superior reliability, researchers are increasingly focusing on the effects of LED ...

In UVC LEDs, the term “spectral quality” has different implications based on the application. For instance, a narrow peak without secondary peaks is usually favored in spectroscopy, while the total ...
